It only takes an EPA officer, ambulance, MBF/CFA firefighter, or police officer to dob you in for noise, then you'll get a demand in the mail for EPA noise test.

A general member of public will need to report you multiple times before EPA will look into it. E.g. you always revved past a neighbours house that's just got fed up with your exhaust noise everyday.

Bad luck. If yours don't go over 90db limit, then a test with certificate will cost around $30 from an approved exhaust tester (the list is on EPA website). Just fax it all back to EPA or mail it back, then it'll all be fine. If you're over 90db, well then you gotta need it fixed first.

im guessing they could hear 25+ skylines, coming down the road... an they grabed as many number plates as they could... loudest, quitest they cant tell when we are bunched together

look at it this way, IT COULD HAVE BEEN ALOT WORSE.... FOR ALL OF US!!!!

next time gents clutch in

shit how bad. How did they manage to catch the registration plates of the cars?

We were all bunched up together as we drove past the boozebus which was set up on the other side of the road...

Unless the unmarked interceptor on our side of the road recorded us driving past?

sucks badly..

DAMNIT i'm out of town I wont be back till FEB!

Is it possible to sue or file a complaint? With that amount of skylines there is no feasible way that they could differentiate one exhaust from the other and issuing mass notices feels like....SPAM! ("I have 50 emails here sir but I don't know if they are all active" "Screw it send it to all of them we gotta get at least one hit")....Is it me or to they seem to work on the same policies?

    • Nah, just take the other one off too 
    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
