Boought the car as is. The guy did a inspection check for me for free today. He said I need 2 new front tires, and when he was checking them all he noticed they were H speed rated. He told me they all need to be V rated to pass inspection??? :confused:

The only other thing he said they wouldnt pass me is that he found oil leaking onto the exhaust(which causes a fire hazard).

He noted to me tho that the Differential is loose, and that my headgasket is leaking. These wouldnt stop me from getting a inspection though. I want to get these fixed though

Question is though is how much is this going to cost me. And which of this can I do myself to save money. Im going to buy for crap tires since i'll be getting new tires&rims in spring. Other wise the car he said is in perfect shape. And no sign of anything wrong with the crank :)
 
I thought 2Gs had a speed lockout? In wich case the H rated tires should be ok I would think?

As far as the other problems (headgasket) it all depends on how industrious and brave you are. VFAQ.COM along with a service manual could get the job done if your willing and able. I don't know much about having a "loose differential"..I might pose that question in the transmission forum if you don't get any responses here as to what to do about that.
 
help?!!? really need to find out this information ASAP. I need to take the other car off insurance if I can ge this done quickly

if he has a gsx like it says, they must be v, fwd's can get away with h's.
 
that wasnt the question though. I wanted to know if I am able to use H rated since auto's have a govener..
