    Title question!

    I just purchased a car in April from Arizona and registered it in Texas. It was a pain in the ass. You'll need an original title, a 130-u form, and to run the vin to get standard presumptive value... I also just sold a motorcycle and signed the title and turned it over to a guy this week...

    Deadly Kentucky Train Crash With Toyota Camry

    It's no surprise the Camry didn't make it. It's a known factory defect here every Camry comes with a broken acellerator peddle. Have you seen a Camry driver attempt a freeway merge?

    So, how do you guys sell heavily modified cars?

    Agreed. Frankly so long as folks stay away from the usually questionable visual mods (visual mods are rarely universally appealing). I have had no problem finding takers for my k04 GTI. The dealers offer my kbb trade in value for the car. Seems fine to me. Also return a car to stock while...

    Valve Springs in Houston?

    I have a 2011 GTI with a K04 and weak valve springs. I'm looking for a place that can replace my valve springs for a reasonable price. I already have a set of IE valve springs, I just need someone to install them. European Legacy was clueless and wanted $2500 for the JOB (customer provided...

    Stock for Stock, Evo X more reliable than MK6 GTI?

    I suppose some of this is luck of the draw too. I know this isn't the exact comparision. I've had Mitsubishi eclipse Gsx in the past and a GTI. My GTI has been more reliable than my gsx was and my GTI and WRX were about equal reliability. So I have a good GTI, with no mechanical issues. But...

    In-depth APR K04 V3 Software Review

    I'm posting my in-depth review here instead of the other thread as anyone who is interested in finding a review in that thread would have to dig through literally hundreds of off topic posts to find a single review. I thought this would be more helpful for folks who are on the fence about APR's...

    Golf R vs Scirocco

    Ah, They liked it becasue 1) the Scirocco R was faster 0-60 and 1/4 mile, 2) the Scirocco R weighs 300lbs less, 3) Scirocco R out handled the Golf R in every objective test. Basically at the Golf R stock power levels the awd adds weight, adds drive line friction and doesn't improve performance...

    Neuspeed Throttle Body pipe VS Carbonio stage 2

    I have a pretty maxed out K04 setup and I was wondering which one would you guys buy either a Neuspeed TB pipe or Carbonio stage 2? Which gives me more bang for the buck, or does neither one really make any difference and I should save up for a big turbo! Current MODs include APR K04 V2.0, APR...
