My neighbors are douche bags

[Infinite]

so at the moment i'm running around open downpipe... my 240 is pretty loud.
and i also get home really late at night (2-3am) so i'm pretty sure the noise pisses them off BUT thats not what they are complaining about... 3 called the forsyth county sheriffs office (rear rednecks with guns and a badge) and said i go too fast through the nieghborhood... yet i do the speedlimit, unless my speedo is that far off.

i guess my car just sounds faster than it is

i can't wait for the to come knock on my door

[Annihilation]

what do you expect them to do, I could barely stand driving open downpipe, I can only imagine how it was for them at 2-3 AM.... You have to realize that some people have jobs to tend to.

[~The_Duke~]

I would be careful the forsyth county cops are assholes most of the time...

The other thing I would be careful of is if to many people call they will come sit outside your house and listen and then tell you get go get emissions on it and\or write a ditrubing the peace ticket...

[Infinite]

i have my emissions note from a week ago.

i try to be as queit as possbile at night, i roll through coasting half the time.
but during the day i accelerate at a reasonable rate either 1st or 2nd out of the neighborhood..

and the cops know me because i worked with them for 3+ years... most of them dont give me shit but a few of the noobs do

[~The_Duke~]

I am just saying cas I have come in contact with some pretty rude ass forsyth county cops here lately...

[Infinite]

yea... i know the cop that is working the laser on the side of the road... i passed him at 80. got off the exit and stopped right next to the cops waiting to chase ppl ( iwas tuning my car) they all just gave me blank stares..

i got pulled over by deputy scott for supposedly running a stop sign...... that didnt exist

I got pulled coasting down a hill at about 60. He got me on the radar coming the other way did a 3 point turn on a double yellow, almost hitting 3 other cars, and then was yelling at me over his loud speaker to pull over. In the spot I was at the only place to pull over was a 8 foot deep trench on the side of the road. So I drove up to the next lil strip mall thing and pulled over. He asked why didnt you stop when I told you to. 'Excuse me sir, it wouldnt have been safe for either one of us to be stopped in the middle of the road' was my response. He face was all red and he was being pissed off cas he couldnt get me for anything else but speeding.

I am glad the HEAT units havent figured out where I live yet

[Infinite]

lol.

i never home so i doubt a cop will ever come.. and if he does i just wont open the door... besides its private property and we have no trespassing signs posted.

maybe i should tell them where you live

[~The_Duke~]

Go ahead I will only be in the house I am living in now for another 1.5 days away lol

joo leaving cumming? bastid

[~The_Duke~]

joo leaving cumming? bastid

Well right now I live on the forsyth\hall county line and I have a cumming phone number and a gainesville address. I am moving just across bowling bridge on the hall county side which is ~5 miles down the road which is about 2 mins if traffic is moving good...so yes and no...lol

People bitch about me in my neighborhood. I am the only one with a modified car and I think it's the exhaust and intake that throw them off. I never go over 30 ever(speed limits 25.) Well every now and then I get those gay ass hand motions trying to tell me to slow down. And yesterday I saw someone jump off the street to the grass. I do not drive wrecklessly though.

Anyhow my new neighborhood I just moved into on Lake Oconee has a speed limit of 35 and there are some tight turns, and no risks of little kids being in my way, just deer. So I think it will be a lot better.

Good luck with your situation, your open downpipe may be the source of this problem, not your driving. IMO.

LOL Someone did this shit to me!!!! I was going the speed limit if not less coming around a corner and i think they heard my BOV. It was a lady with a dog and she went FLYING off the road and YANKED the shit out of her dog into the grass LOL. She screamed IDIOT or something at me after i passed her...

i just laughed...

Minus the yelling idiot that is exactly what happened. It was late at night and I came around a turn at about 20 or so and se freaked out and pulled her dog into the grass with her. Hilarious it made my day. Bad thing is I think I know who it was.

[Crazy Asian]

Only reason why is because those god damn gay ass muther fucking ricers on the street give us a bad name. They see taht shit doing fly bys and what not...they expect that's gonna happen on their street so there just trying to watch out for themselves and kid. Ya it gets annoying but your neighbors get used. Hell one used to bitch every fucking day till she realized I was actually more responsible and more adult like then most kids...so she bitches about other ppl to me. Word.

[00CelicaGT]

i got stop (Henry county) coming in my subdivison for doing 29 in a 25 and the cop said he could hear me a mile away so i was like watever cuz hes told me before that my exaust too loud and was illegal and wrote me a ticket when i first got it. i had to get a bunch of info from the manufacture saying it's 50 state leagal and had to fight them about the ticket. So the first time he stopped me he ask to hear how loud it was. So i start the car and rev it twice to like 3 Grand. so he decides to bend over to get a better listen and i see him do so in my mirror, since he was being a dick about the whole situation i decided to be one too and reved it to red line lol. he got so pissed haha. He ended up letting me go with a warning.

oh yeah officer hill from Henry County.

[Crazy Asian]

You do know they need a device to measure how loud that exhaust right? And if they dont you can fight it.

[00CelicaGT]

i fougt mine by just taking the documents i got from the manufacture to court with me, but since ur runnin and open pipe there gonna need that device and if u passed ur emissions a few weeks ago u can just show them that. i always do the speed limit in my neighborhood but people in me sudivison do the same with the hand waving and crap i just beep the horn and wave. My neighbors hate me they always call the cops and complain to the homeowners association meeting. i have even had a guy at the last meeting say i was and was a danger to everyone on the road and myself but i just ignor them. oh im the only moded car in my neighborhood too.

[Crazy Asian]

Trust me on this on LA cops are more of a bitch on exhaust issues then anyone else. My buddy told me he really didnt give shit about exhaust unless it was really wreckless he would measure the decible of the exhaust.

[05Tib]

same here, i have headers and exhaust with no cats so its decently loud but i drive the speed limit through the neighborhood because there are always little kids playing in the street but i get that "he drives reckless through the neighborhood" crap too because 2 other people have cars with exhaust and they fly down the street so i get grouped in with them

[Flip]

I totally feel you on this. I have a neighbor that calls the cops on me for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING. All of the neighbors hate her. I'm friends with ALL of my other neighbors...

She calls the cops any time there are more than about 3 cars in my driveway, or if we have to park a car or two in the culdesac. She called once when one of my cars was in the culdesac and they had it towed because it doesn't have a tag (since i don't drive it). Every time i have people over she calls them. She's called about my exhaust and the cops have pulled me over for it outside my neighborhood, but just warned me. My exhaust IS loud but i dont speed through the neighborhood and it IS a legal exhaust (pretty sure besides the no cat thing).

So i feel ya...

Trying to figure out what i can do about it since i'm pretty much in the right here and have done' nothing wrong... Someone suggested calling the local PD and seeing how many times she's called complaints and file harassment charges against her or something...

not surew hat to do. she's given me shit since the very first day i moved in... and its not like i just rent the house and can move i actually own it and she's trying to make my life hell...

i can't wait for the to come knock on my door

same shit happened to me. when I asked the "Home owners association" woman how fast I was going she said, "we can just tell you're going to fast." then I said, "so if I throw a rock you can tell me how fast it's going?" then slammed my door in her face and finished my laundry

so just tell them to go diaf.

I don't know any of you guys personally, so don't get all up an arms about what I'm about to say.

If you're running an open downpipe......it's really YOUR fault. You are asking for trouble. Why ask for it and then complain when you get it?

If you're running open headers, no cats, loud mufflers.....you too are asking for trouble. Why ask for it and then complain when you get it?

Yall do know that there are very minimal IF ANY gains from running setups like that? So what's the purpose? If you wanna be loud, be loud. Just don't complain when that's not everyone's cup of tea. I'd be pissed if I had my kids playing in MY own front yard and I kept hearing this LOUD car coming up and down the street. Worse yet, I'd be UBER pissed if I was sleeping minding my own business and someone woke me up with their exhaust note at 3 a.m. People do have kids. People do have jobs. To be honest, I'd probably wanna do more than just call the cops on you if you woke me up at 3 a.m. with your loud exhaust that YOU put on YOUR car and were driving around in.

Again, I don't know any of you guys personally, but put yourself in other people's shoes and think about how they feel. There are plenty of busy body neighbors that have nothing better to do than to aggrevate other people. True. But then why give them a completely legit reason to call the law on you? Doesn't that make YOU pretty damn dumb? That's like stealing at a store and looking right up at the security camera and smiling, then complaining you got caught..... If they bitch about little BS reasons, call them on it. If they bitch about a legit reason, then you have nothing you can really complain about since it's mostly your own fault.

My catless 3" system gained apx 65+ hp and 85+ tq. Think thats worth it?

As far as the noise level, imagine a harley... I know my car isn't nearly as loud as one of those and you can't call and complain about one of those unless they are just sittin there revin it or something...

I've spoken with ALL of my other neighbors and none of them are bothered and none of them mind the noise from my car...

[StupidBikerBoy]

My catless 3" system gained apx 65+ hp and 85+ tq. Think thats worth it?

.

I believe what Jaime meant was that you can accomplish the same gains (in some cases more) with a well tuned exhaust system. An open exhuast is not necesarily a better exhuast, just cheaper and easier. It has been proven on many different applications.

I remember one vid of a civic I believe that gained less than 1 hp when going from its full exhaust to a open exhaust, and actually lost some torque.

[05Tib]

I am getting silencers for my exhaust soon. Only reason I run no cats is because the only headers offered for the V6 tib with a cat are mad exspensive and always on back order for months at a time and I dont want to pay for someone to cut and weld cats onto my Y pipe. I do park my car on the street (its a Tib, its not going to get stolen) so its nots near houses when I crank up in the morning.

But still people accusing of us of speeding through the streets because our cars are loud is crazy but it will always happen, people have an opinion formed of the "street racers" and thats that.

[Infinite]

i still think i should kill them all

my exhaust system goes back on today... hopefully

[Fast Shadow]

I was on Briarcliff road once near Decatur Road and this old man practically flew off of the sidewalk screaming at me to slow down. Keep in mind this is a 4 lane road with a 35mph speed limit. The guy jumped into the road like he was shot from a cannon and he was jumping around like some voodoo witch doctor. I looked down at my speedometer and I was doing just under 45mph. What a fucking asshole. This was in my stock M3, so it wasn't because it had a loud exhaust. I still laugh every time I think about the way he jumped into the street.

[Nismo]

Honestly when people do the slow down motion to me on the streets around my neighborhood(outside it) I will drop it a gear and speed up just to piss them off. I really hate people like that, that bitch.

[Infinite]

one time a gy did that jumping shit in front of me when i was in my truck.. an f-150... stock. so i sped up and aimed for him

when they tell me to slow down sometimes i do the same, or if they are in the cul-de-sac i'll do a little drift around em(they run in the middle)

[Infinite]

thats most likely becuase he didnt retune after going open downpipe... i retuned my car and it was a shitload faster

[HalfBaked]

When we first moved in our bitchy neighbors who have called the cops on us before were like "You're cars are too low thats illegal, also your tires are going to pop if you drive them anywhere." She also said it was illegal for us to park on the street when we live in a cul de sac, don't block the sidewalk, and leave enough room for a firetruck to get through.

[Infinite]

i'd park in the street then set her house on fire

but seriously.. i wonder why people have some many problems... i bet if i pulled up in an enzo she wouldnt tell me not to park in the street

[R.Kelly]

my neighbors called the cops on us b/c i was shooting a pellet gun in my huge back yard, they also called the fire department when we had a trash fire in a barrel when there was no ban on burning.....plain and simple assholes

[Infinite]

all of my neighbors burn shit... they bitched about me having a bonfire pit my the house... so i took a big stainless steel tray... drug it to the middle of my driveway and started burning whatever i could find... the wind just happened to carry the smoke right to their house

hahahaha yea i burn shit all the time and they're not home as often as they used to be so they dont get to see me as much

[Infinite]

and what annoys me even more is my neighbor has a 650whp buick grand national.. he can go toss the slicks on. hit the line lock and do burnouts in the middle of the street all day and no one cares... i leave 5ft of black mark and the fucking world stops and spins backwards

hahahah i love grand nattys so much, yea the neighbors dont like my loud ass 74 nova but i never drive it at night or in the morning theyre just douches

[Josh...]

My neighbors are pretty cool about my car being loud. But there is a porsche carrera thats pretty loud a couple houses down from me, and a guy that lives across from me with a 60's mini cooper that is loud as hell and he has a WRX w/ a loud exhaust, a BB4 w/ a can thats about as loud as my car if not louder, and around 2k viper that is loud as well. So I guess they don't car anymore, or they just bitch about it in their own homes.
