How much do you charge to repair one sent to you?

I literally just finished replacing the LMA's (haven't even put the cams back in yet, only the rockers/shaft). Honda did an amazing job designing this car as there is just enough room to slide the rocker shafts out of the heads to remove the rocker assemblies, but not quite enough room to remove...

I just so happen to be in the middle of this job right now and am not removing the engine to do so. Access really isn't that bad...just the rear bank exhaust cam is pretty far down there. The only thing I found angling the motor helped with was getting the front timing cover out of the way...

Yes and no. Yes you will have to pay the tax if you move to GA, but it isn't a sales tax per se. The way I'm looking at it, it is more like lifetime property tax. Instead of paying property tax on the vehicle each year when renewing registration, you pay a single tax based on the value of the...

Hi John. It is likely that it would happen by the end of the year. Robin is in graduate school at Emory and we are both tired of living apart. There is a decent chance we will end up back in Raleigh and I plan converting the house here into a rental unit, so I'm sure I'll be around from time to...

I just came across this searching the interwebs on Georgia TAVT valuations. "The state of Georgia, for example, uses Kelley Blue Book for tax purposes when assessing the value of used cars purchased from private sellers."...

Wow what a kick in the balls. I was hoping you were just reading something in the taxes wrong since it is a title transfer, not purchase but it looks like you are right. I am actually considering a move to GA as well and we just bought a used 2012 MDX 2 months ago that will need nearly $2000 in...

Very good, thanks for the details. Just didn't want anyone around here to get caught up in the "it's got a state title and over 25 years old, so it's completely legal" game that some people try to play.

Are these cars truly legal? When I say that, I mean do they come with copies of all the customs/RI/NHTSA/EPA paperwork or are they merely US titled cars that have been imported?

Those look like they were taken off hand with someones personal camera, I'm interested in seeing the "professional" ones taken from tripods :).

Anyone know when we will get to see any of the pictures from the photo shoot on Saturday night?

Yes, VIR's kart track is a ton of fun and the drive up on back roads will be nice as well.
