And I'mnot trying to scare, so don't get your panties in a bunch. I'm stating what I know from a definite source.
relax buddy you can be toughguy to cops all you want. I prefer to be civil

asking people at sema doesnt mean they are right, and oh yea... SEMA IS AT VEGAS AKA NEVADA. they have different laws....california is the worst of them all. as long as the person doesnt have a legal cerfitication for praticing law, what he or she says may not be 100% accurate! reading a magazine does not always help.
but tell them your exhaust is 50 state legal and your guages are to ensure that your car is working correctly. also you exhaust cant be louder than 95 decibles/ if they try to give you a ticket for noise, tell them to bust out the DB meeter. they cant measure noise with their ears. you will win in court.
Note: New law (27150.2 VC) does not require law enforcement to use sound level meters to test for excessive noise. Citation is based on officer's judgment. Cited violators may have testing done at smog referee stations or may be directed by the court to have testing done. Vehicles in violation must be brought into compliance. A fine may also be imposed.

"let's race"
SURE NO PROBLEM VIN DEISEL.
...at least our info is up to date. You just argued with old info. And dude - you wanna race? For what? because you got owned by old info? So you'll feel better?
Grow up bro. Ignorance is a corectable state, unlike being an idiot.

Street racing is illegal. The CHP won't hesitate to take street racers to court.
A first conviction on a street racing violation means:
Minimum county jail sentence of 24 hours and maximum of 90 days.
Vehicle probably impounded for at least 30 days.
Owner responsible for vehicle's towing and storage charges ($1,000 or more).
If owner fails to pay, vehicle could be sold at a lien sale.
Anyone who aids or abets a street race also faces a maximum 90-day jail sentence.
Instead, take your car to a National Hot Rod Association-sanctioned track or drag strip, where you can race safely under optimum conditions.

On the thing about the SR20DE being legal in California, without seeing the "engine importers catalogue" we can assume it's a legal swap for the 240sx because it's used in a passenger vehicle here in the USA and in California so it's a legal swap as long as it passes emissions.
