Don't know yet, haven't drove it around much. Honestly I sprayed all the lca, tie rod, sway bolts and I never noticed it again. I'll let you know sometime this week if it fixed it. My money is on the tie rod ends that did it probably.

I tell you what tho, if you do them and have stock sway bar endlinks. Buy new ones lol. One bolt snapped at every little rubber piece barley putting any torque on it. The olther was about rusted through. That and I had only one bolt seize to the bushing.

I'll be doing my lca's and new sway bars and end links this summer.

Talked mom and dad into a 00 gs with 160K on it for $950

well dad went to test drive it and blew a brake line so got it for $850

nice score!! you always get a discount if it breaks on the test drive lol

Now I get to fix it tomorrow.

give the back line that runs across the rear sub frame a good look over. mine was rotted to crap. so i cut the line on the drivers side wheel well, (where you have room to work) and ran a new line to the pass rear. there was nothing worth saving on that old line.

what color is the new GS?

Black gs My fav. I'm just gonna replace all the rear lines eventually. I know the girl that owned it and she never beat on the car and always took care of it. Never even had the sc belt on the whole 5 years & 80K miles she had it.

ive driven with no sc belt for a very short trip. car was gutless at best, why in the world would you drive it for 80,000 miles with no belt lol


is it the full black on black trim? or with that damn silver trim. i cant stand that silver trim on the black cars. looks out of place. its not to bad on any other color tho.

It has the grey on the bottom. Not sure on the interior color though. I'm gonna try talking dad into trading for the crapiece lol

idk if id take that trade. that things a boat.

I stopped at Advance and picked up my plugs, wires, sockets, and dielectric grease. I also picked up some fuel injector and intake valve cleaner. Put that in when I put gas in the pig.

Tomorrow will be tune up day. We'll see how it goes.

57* out. Loads of highway driving. 190* tranny temps......acceptable? Meh.

I took my 2002 GTP out for a spin to Paducah Kentucky to get cigs. First time its been out since being stored in the garage all winter. Approaching the 61k mark on her, take that back, 61,014 on her now. Gave her a bath too

So i was looking at her today.. and i think after the fucckkinggg 8 inches of snow we got last night finally leaves this weekend when it gets 60 out.. i want to touch up my calipers and brackets.. make them a nice bright red again... and i need to put in that sensor still.. hopefully this weekend... its gonna be a busy as hell weekend.. and there is fun to be had.. first weekend being a school since being single.. in like this whole year... wow.. just realized that...

For mostly freeway driving at 57°? Seems kinda high

Did you see the thread where the guy thought 218* at 35* outside was good?
