Keep your North Carolina tags and you probably won't have to worry about it.

Anyone know anybody looking for an SS?

Anybody who knows my car, it's rather clean for an '05.

Thinking about tossing it up on Craigslist/Autotrader in the next week. Been a thought for a minute, might just give it a shot. I'm in between on it daily, it has to do with way more than the car, but we'll see. It makes me extremely happy to drive everyday though, no lie! Just need to explore the option and think about upcoming events.

I hear you Joe. Just today I was thinking about tossing the LSJ for a Jeep Wrangle Unlimited Rubicon. I thought Kim would like it if I were to surprise her because it solves every problem we have with my car, ie, accessible backseat, space for a stroller, and then some, off road adventures, etc. Then I realized I wouldn't have a play tow. Guess I'll just wait a bit.

actually it helps *Being* a state inspector...

the 02 spacer trick works real well... i have it behind my magnaflow hi flow cat and i stopped getting DTCs for it.

as for the headlights. Officially its against state inspection to put anything besides clear "lenssavers" vinyl on any portion of the head lights. however most inspectors won't fail you for eyebrows, and a few of the troopers will over turn failures ... in this case it depends on whether it distorts or blocks any of the emitted light...

i generally don't fail headlights unless its been painted in anyway or cracked... moisture is just too much of a grey area and our trooper has been known to over turn moisture failures even when it was so bad that mould formed and tinted the emitted light green.

still waiting for confirmation about the dyno... i'd love to see all of you out there at the show!!

i'm still looking for an LSJ stock muffler... anyone??

I can help with the LSJ stock muffler in a few months. I'm currently using mine, but getting ready to upgrade.

i appreciate it, however im shooting to do my complete exhaust install in july maybe early august depending on how long it takes to get the header and to get it ceramic or jet black coated from my powder coat shop in VA beach...

i'm also in a rush because i need to get this done to stop the current exhaust rattle i have causing 5 degrees knock retard at idle... once this is fixed and i trace my knock sensor circuit intermittent code, Joe can finish the tune on my car...

A new tune is also loaded onto the car. The sensors help with reading higher boost levels.

i dont think you got my sarcasm. I am a SI. And your trooper sounds like a dick. Our trooper backs us in whatever decesion we make as long as were by the book. But yes none of us fail for lids as long as its not blocking the omiting light from the lens. Now if someone comes in with nightshade sprayed all across the headlights or tails thats a different story

Everything is illegal in VA (i.e 3rd brake light stickers, air freshners hanging from rear view mirror, and yes eye lid sticks that obstruct the beam of your headlights) welcome to the commonwealth

our trooper is a huge dick... it takes about 10 months from the point you ask for an application and pass his oral exam, to actually get the application. (and this is with the experience portion already complete). He's very short and has the short man mentality. The first thing he'll say to you is "do you have any friends? ??? Lose them!

The new service manager here said he has never delt with a trooper as intense as this one...
