New guy from fargo. I just bought a 97 GTP, red, 2dr, blk lthr w/ 140k on it for 3,000. Glad to finally be a prix owner. I've been after on since they came out w/ the 97-03 body style(what gen is it? 3rd?). Is there anything I should know about the trans/motor/supercharger/electrical?
The rear deck lid has some minor rust under the wing that for some reason is darker then the rest of the car. He says its gotten progressively darker over the last 8 yrs. Its almost a maroon. I need to get to the rust pronto(any cheap suggestions). Also has a cracked windshield(cant seem to find glass online). Paint is a Lil chipped up front, head and taillights have condensation inside them(who has the best prices on aftermarkets). The front left wheel growls if i dart left quick at 40+. I'm hopping its just a wheel bearing. Its not loud, but you can hear it.
I figure I talked him down from 3800 so I didnt do to bad I dont think? I'll get some pics up when I get her home.
Anyone have the factory peak tq/hp and at what rpm? Any differences from yr to yr? I wana say 240hp, is this actual or did they underate it like they used to for muscle cars for insurance? Anyone have their own "stock" dyno charts they care to share? Whats the 3.8 capable of producing w/ bolt ons?
Thanks
