To be on the safe side... leavign the stock exhaust is always your answer

Depends on police too

when i had a dc2r, i had a BC exhaust, never had trouble with the police at all (drove for work.. so average 1000kms per week) and the reason behind that is because i dont drive hard at all on the streets. I even had my car completely stripped (had only driver seat) for WSID and with the WSID numbers on my car :p... still no troubles

If you are going to be worried everytime a cop drives past then keep your stock exhaust to give you peace of mind

[OMG.JAI xD]

One other thing to.

Got a P-plate?
If the answer is yes. Youve got a bulls-eye target around your car.

[aimen]

nah im full licensed im 26.

but the car stand out heaps its black with 19's on it. so yer thats where im at at the moment

[45SET]

People that get pulled over all the time normally get pulled over for a reason. Be it that they drive around like an Idiot, or there number plates are black listed (Normally because of driving around like an idiot), so the cops pull you over all the time (They black list cars in QLD... not sure about other states).

But I'm guessing by your other threads "What's the loudest intake for a DC5R" you are going to drive around like and idiot.

Wow... you're 26... going by how you type, and the threads you've made I seriously though you were like 19... MAX.

[aimen]

Lol nah man im a mature driver. But i love the sound of vtec, im no hoon trust me.

I used to have an s2000 3 years ago and i loved it. Never got pulled over so im no idiot driver.

And as for the typing i can type but cbf, typing correct lol

[45SET]

Dude, a bit of advice when it comes to forums, if you type correctly most people are going to take your posts a little more seriously, and you'll get some decent input into your question.

You seem like you are fairly new to the DC5R game, so if you are going to ask lots of questions it'll pay to spend the extra 2 minutes to construct a sentence properly and spell it all correctly.

But back on topic, if you are a mature driver you'll be fine.

I drive around with a BC pro spec 3 and i never get hassled by cops.
I get pulled over for RBTs and they never say a word.

[Dinhii]

I'm a p'plater and when i bought my dc5 it cam with a cannon exhaust and it didnt pass RW and it got taken off and a stock one was put on. after getting the RW i went to another shop an put it back on and I've been driving around with it for almost a year now no hassle, but like mention above it all really depends on the cop if their picky or not. hope this helps

[RED-DC5R]

I;ve had my dc5r for 8 months never got harassed by cops but thats cus i stil have the stock exhaust.

[xntrik]

If you're gonna get pulled over or harassed by cops on the road, driving next to you:

1. Poor driving ability.
2. Speeding
3. Modified Car.

There is no such thing as RBT nowadays, its just an excuse to pull you over.

I had my car pulled over 2 years ago for an 'RBT' and never got breath tested instead
got slapped with a defect notice + yellow canary.

If you don't want hassle from the cops.

Don't modify your car in a way that its going get attention.
Attention is good, but it also attracts the wrong crowd (cops).

Or don't drive it.

I used to run a loud exhaust until i got pulled over by a highway patrol and told to follow them.. I was taken to a epa inspection station at kings cross where all other modified cars were being inspected by epa. They inspected the whole car for defects, they hooked up a microphone behind my exhaust and reved the engine at about 5000rpm. My exhaust sound was 110db, 20db over legal limit. I was then slapped with a $500 fine and told to remove my exhaust system, cai and have the car inspected again by one of five workshops in Nsw. If i did not comply it would effect vehicle registration/licence. So after this experience i dont think its worth having a loud exhaust.

5000rpm? I hope not.
They're supposed to do it at 2500 or 3000 tops.

I have a dB meter at home, my Accord (before it was boosted) rocked 94dB at 2500rpm (Almost legal) and 114 dB at 7000rpm.
My Dad's 2010 stock Territory made 108dB at 6000rpm.

If the test is done incorrectly it can be very bad for your wallet.
But they're probably all corrupt and hate everyone so screw them lol.

Im 100% sure for a 4 cylinder engine the epa does the test at around 5000rpm, for 6 and 8 cylinder cars they test at a lower rpm.

**** the police

Why revive such an old thread O.o

[butterfingers]

I must be tripping balls, for a second I thought you said there were 19's on your DC5R.

I apologize for that misunderstanding.

[Bulbasaur]

**** the police

Mate listen...

[butterfingers]

i wholeheartedly agree with ****ing the police.

But theres a fine line between getting away with shit, and stupidity that draws even more attention.

[dougie_504]

I got nothing against the cops personally.

They're just doing their job. You modify at your own risk. Part of the parcel boys, get used to it.

[curtis265]

fk the police?

you're drawing attention to yourself with illegal mods, what do you expect?

[ericl33]

I hope these people never get the assistance of police in their times on need.

they don't deserve it,

[bboyzell]

they don't deserve it,

Agreed, as much as i don't like the attention my cars get from the police, i always think

1) they are a human being treat em with respect and they will respect you back

2) When sh!t hits the fan, they are there to help you and everyone else

[butterfingers]

i didnt know so many people actually used police.

[butterfingers]

You missed my point.

thanks for the neg

By the way, guys... THIS THREAD WAS OVER IN 2010, AND WAS RESURRECTED BY A MORON.

[bboyzell]

Well Metro cops iv had little experience with since i live in a town of 10k people and around 30 different cops. where if they people you up and you are polite they dont normally screw you over.

21yo Sudanese guy waiting with his friend at the station for a train to the city.

Cop: It's time for you to get out of here. We don't want you people hanging around here.
Guy: I am getting out of here... I'm waiting for a train.
Cop: Are you two in a gang?
etc.

Paraphrased, of course, but that's my most recent example of cops abusing their positions in order to **** people around.

That was an individual, you can't generalise about a whole group of people from one person.

I have had had many more pleasant experiences than unpleasant regarding police.

Everyone is a human, if you can understand the basics of how the human mind works and emotion, you can use situations to your advantage.

Your last sentence is just... incomprehensible, irrelevant babble.

the world we live in is full of ****, hating isn't going to help.

Yes, i do need to take my own advice.
