Just want to say hi to everyone over CA
can someone fill me up on where can i get stuff for my 91 240sx hatchback ?
Is there a track around ?
what's with the SMOG thing ? (MN doesn't have smog.... hehe)
If you drive a 240sx with exhaust will you get pull over by cops even the car is not register under CA ?

there is so many thing i need to know that i don't even know where to start

forgot to mention i'm at saratoga

cali is a big state.
ie
norcal = bay area, sacramento
central valley = fresno, modesto
socal = la

smog is every two years you smog it at a test station for cars older than 7 years i think, and everytime you change titles. depending on what exact area you live in it will differ on cops and exhaust tickets. cops hate all imports, get used to fix-it tickets.

hmm if i do get a fix it ticket
do i really fix it and show it to the court or what ever ?

haah · 07-07-2004, 01:48 PM

Just goto a meet, since your in saratoga why don't you drive up to Sears Point this weekend and meet some norcal people if you have the time.

Closet drag track is in sac or sears, road courses there is Laguna, Sears, Thunderhill, ButtonWillow listed in order of distance. ButtonW is 3:45hr from Saratoga. There is also Streets of Willows but thats in SoCal.

smog- you're going to have to get your vehicle smogged if you want to keep it in california. If you left all your smog equipment on you're probably going to be fine.
