Wow Kevin. That's incredible! If I was getting harassed that much I would definitely be talking to a lawyer to see if I can win some lawsuit against the State.
Officer Tamarra told me that he was pulling me over for noise pollution, but after I showed him my "exhaust no recon paper" he said he would let me go on the exhaust but ticketed me for no recon on my suspension and no front license plate.
I'm going to put my plate on tomorrow, and I don't think I can do anything about the suspension unless I go back to stock (I hear the stock height on the S2000 doesn't clear the State's regulations anyway )
Anyway, don't the cops need a 'probable cause' to pull somebody over? I would think if there were a lot of false allegations, you could fight a case citing 'harassment'.
I'm going to look into it, though I'm not nearly as qualified as a lot of you guys.
Officer Tamarra was so unprofessional and such a dick I hope he gets what he deserves.
BTW, I'm also interested in the radio chatter that you're talking about Kev.

From the last time I was at recon but they may have changed a bit, the regulation height was based upon how many inches your headlight was from the ground. Which back then was around 22 inches. Yeah I heard to that the s2000 didnt even meet that but oh well 
Thats why not driving around in wikes at night is a good thing cuz thats the only place you will get it all the time. Shoot the last time I got a ticket was in my blue S in wikes. I was at a red light and this punk walks up and tells me to pull over I had my top down and just cruzin. My car was stock except for the sounds but he gave me tickets for no lic. and blue front headlights and told me that they were not stock I told him he was smoking crack 
and he got pissed. No matter cuz I just got a photo copy of the s2000 layout of the HIDs and won in court anyway.

Stephen I was going to say dont let a ticket prevent you from putting back your plate or raising your car. Just leave it the way it is. Well since you live in Waikiki I would put the plate on lol. BUt yea I didnt want to waste my time going through all the trouble and taking time of of work to take legal action. Stephen I have a Erricsson Radio that I got off Ebay for about $1500. I had my friend program it to catch all districts of HPD. I cant talk to them but I have the UH security proggramed also and I can talk to them lol ( I dont because I dont want to get into trouble).
Oh and for all of you people who have illegal tint on your cars and get pulled over for it, here is a tip.... What I did was when the cop was in back of me with his lights on I pulled over and put down my top. WHen he asked me to see my windows, I left the Ebrake down and pushed the raise up button and said "dammit my fuse is burnt out and now I cant roll up my windows or raise the top. So the cop cant do anything.(what is he going to do?reach in the car? haha) It worked for me Twice. But I still got a front windshield ticket.

With my integra I used to get pulled over Almost every weekend when I went out. I was lucky if I didnt get pulled over. It was because of my drop and tint. With the S2000 it was because of the tint on the car double 5% on the sides and back and 35% on the front. Ever since I took the tint of the car I havnt got pulled over.I hardly drive my car. I dont run my front plate on my car. I think that is what attracts attention. THere is no place to put it with the Cwest kit.
