Stupid Q: IMS cannot be done with the engine in the car, correct?

Pics forthcoming...though it might be a couple days, looks like the snow gods are about to have their way with us.

If memory serves, the car has 19"s. Hell I have the window sticker and the wheels were a $2300 option. I don't know the whole option list but I think the only things available for a base model that the car doesn't have are heated seats and the (?) 9-speaker system.

List for the car was about $53k

It's got Yokos on it, and I cannot see a damn thing wrong with them. Seem to have good grip, even below freezing.

There is definitely a clunk from the right rear strut, and there are major clunks and jerks from the front when reversing at or near full lock.

Small oddity today: The car had been computing mileage at a dismal 18.6 for weeks, and declining. Today I put in some crap ($2) injector cleaner, reset the MPG on the OC, and bam, 25 MPG. Interesting. Must be the OC.

Anybody know IMA Motorsport in Chantilly, VA?

Cheers!
