    Good Afternoon All!
    My name is Ian, i am from the San Fernando Valley.
    I recently turned 18 years old, and i was given a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
    with 80,000 miles. I am also into JDM cars but, dont get the wrong first impression, my dad was born and raised with a 1970 El Camino that he troubleshooted and rebuilt himself, and i was there with him. Since my dad is a gearhead, I am the newest generation of him haha. I joined the forums to further seek information about my car, whether or not, am i gonna keep this car, i would not know; I plan too though (: This is not my first car, but i do plan keeping its value, while applying a few minor tweaks to it. I hope what i am saying does not belong in a different forum section. but if it is, please admins, do what you have to do while i continue ranting. My also purpose of joining this forum, is for my car to reach its potential, not its full, but whats its possibilities.
    I hope i did not give a wrong first impression, sure, this is a fix it car, but my desires is to be in my car, does not matter what it is. I hope you all like my intro. Thanks!

    To further seek research on my car, there are a few questions that i would like to ask, that i researched into, and that i cannot find the answer im looking for.
    Im pretty sure, anything can be done to a car, but im looking for something thats prebuilt, that does not require custom modification. Take off, Put on, Done, sorta thing ahah.
    I love how the gto looks. Are there any bodykits for my car that would ressemble the gto? Not looking for the same form, but the same...uhm, flow that the gto has. Mine is a 4dr if i didnt put that above.
    How many times does the supercharger oil need to be replaced? every x amount of miles or what? I recently gave my car a synthetic oil change and the previous owner replaced the supercharger oil on it before it was given to me.

    Welcome.

    I come from the JDM world also, I have done alot of work with Nissan's mostly.

    Not a lot of body kits available for the grand prix, most are pretty ugly.

    There are alot of good looking grand prix's on here, check out the member's rides section to get some ideas

    SC oil every 30k miles is recommended
