This thread is great. Keep up the good work and fight the system.
I'm leaving the SR for the LSx platform, and this is one of the primary reasons for my doing so.

With all due respect, you are incorrect. VA has a very strange way of interpreting the legal code. "Standard make" should mean "OEM-equivalent"; however, the police and courts interpret the term to mean "originally equipped from the factory".
I'm in the same boat as you are though. We pass state inspection with no problems, but our cars are still not federally legal.
I hope we could have a more intelligent legal system, but that would be asking for too much.
