California Forced Me To REMOVE MY MODIFICATIONS On My Car...

Күн бұрын

I put my 2020 Subaru WRX STI with a tasteful amount of bolt-on mods, back to stock... Reason being is I got state reffed ONCE AGAIN in the STI and we now have to go stock and get the car inspected... If you guys aren't from California, a state referee ticket is when you have to put your car back to stock OEM parts and get the car inspected by the state. During that process, you cannot drive the car until it is 'cleared' or passed inspection. In todays video I prepare my STI for inspection by removing my grimmspeed downpipe, single exit catback exhaust, tune, and more.

In NC, I can do anything to the motor, intake or exhaust. The law only says you have to have a muffler and cats. None of that ref crap you have to put up with. I had to deal with CHP when I drove out there. I had lights on my mirrors that were legal. We had amder in the front and red on the backside. They was put on to help keep my mirrors from getting knocked off at a dark loading dock at one of the cold storage. Because he didn't like them, he told me I had to take them off. I asked several times what was illegal about them, and he would never tell me. The told me to get them off or I would be placed Out of Service. I could never live in that state. I can't understand how people keep voting in all the people that keep passing those anti-american laws.

Id say invest in property in Texas, Id say El Paso or Dallas/Fort Worth. It could be a real cheap beat up house, register all your cars in Texas and bring it back in California, if you ever get pulled over you can just say you’re visiting, you don’t have to tell them how long. Only down side is that registration is once a year and you have to get your car inspected so you’d have to bring you car to texas once a year UNLESS you have a buddy or someone you’re close with that inspects cars and “cough cough” could inspect it with you being in California still which would save you a trip to Texas.

It’s a lot worse in the southern parts of CA than everywhere else. Especially if you have an obviously modded car. The louder and flashier it is the more the cops will be checking for you because they have nothing better to do 💀 it sucks but most of the time it’s better to just comply than to be getting constantly slapped with $400+ tickets. For Chris it’s most likely the fact that he has a YT channel and is driving around with super dark front windshield tint with a bright wrap. If his car looked stock on the outside he probably would have little to no problems

Could you not just register it out of state? Start some bs llc in Montana and register it there.

@starwarrior125 Жыл бұрын

Honestly the easiest way for you to get around all of this would be to make your KZfaq channel (or another dummy corp) an out of state LLC. Register the car in the state of said LLC and rent the car out to yourself for $1 a month. Trucking and rental car companies have been doing this for years to get around CA bs and its not very expensive to do.

Before I left San Diego in late 2021, I ran ModsApart Garage putting people back to stock. My WRX was & is FBO 428HP & I NEVER GOT PULLED. But I left for this exact reason. The number of people coming for mod removal was insane and I knew it was time to dip. I'm still Modded & 2 years later I've never been pulled over in my Subie. Texas is cool AF but weirdly enough there's only 3 VA chassis in Fort Worth area with mods. Come one come all. It's a better life. The Beaches stink anyways. Meets here are insane and Subies are rare AF, and demand Mucho Respecto. ✌️

If you sell those parts you can pick up that nexgen stage 2 kit. Carb legal- intake, Inlet, injectors, rails, lines, pressure regulator, fuel pump, catback that’s around 92-94 db. It’s pricey but legit, add a Cobb Bpv and new top mount with a good tune it will net you 330whp on 91.
