White 99' GTP

[locuno1]

This is my white 99' GTP coupe. It has it's share of problems and once spring comes around i will start to work on it since my garage is full of my grandma's stuff after she had passed so i have no place to do the work. It's my daily driver and I'm hoping it's stock but i haven't dug into that part yet. At one point it looked like their was a gauge pod and two toggle switches. I've replaced the steering rack, gas cap, basic maintenance on it, and tie rods. The passenger side front fender got pushed in because the previous owner said people were hanging on the door and it caught the fender. It has minor rust around the gas cap.There is also a leak in the trunk some where the only wet spot is on the front right then the water collects in spare tire compartment.The trunk was debadged then covered with a borla exhaust sticker which kinda worries me lol. As for what i wanna to do to it performance wise not sure yet and i already read the safely modding thread. For the exterior i was thinking about a black theme and white inlays for the Pontiac on front and back and black rims. Anyone willing to assist on working on it with me would be appreciated as long as you are near me so it's not out of your way. now for the pictures. input is encouraged even if you are trolling since everyone does it.

Not so sure about the blue front and rear fascias. Would look better black IMO.

The blue accents with the taupe interior doesnt really flow/match nicely.

Engine bay looks a bit dirty, but things can be replaced and cleaned. As long as it runs good, thats all that matters.

Anyways, i see your from Michigan. Where are you located?

I'm up in cedar springs about 20 minutes from downtown grand rapids.The blue was on it when i bought it but i was going to paint it black then do white inlays. As for the interior I'm not sure how or what i am going to do about that. The engine bay will be cleaned up eventually i just need it to warm up a little bit because the previous owner said the grooved idler went and then the supercharger belt snapped and hit the hood so i gotta replace the so i can get my supercharger going again

Definately need that S/C belt(grooved idler $15 from Rockauto). and a bunch of grey or black paint for the blue cover-up. Looks good, a little time investment and you'll be stylin

yeah i already got the pulley and belt just waiting on the weather to cooperate and not be so cold

[locuno1]

supercharger belt and pulley has been installed for a little while now so that's a plus. as you can see in the images my door caught on the fender which has been like that from the when the previous owner had it but it jarred loose and caused the side skirt under the door to detach from the frame so i pulled it off today and well it wasn't a pretty site. i also checked the rear strut towers and those weren't to bad. i have some work to do come spring.

yay rust lol

[jerZcavy4120]

omg is that even salvageable??

[Jevik]

Take a pic from the rear wheel well where the strut is, facing up. You might need new strut towers welded in. At the very least, steel plates. I had an eclipse with the front strut towers looking like that. It'll grow quick if you got bumpy roads..

Looks like a Heavy D wannabe painted that car

difference is the blue looks nice on your car and whoever painted the blue in my car made it look like a smurf died or didn't have good attention to detail. i honestly wish i could have got it with the color scheme stock.

[locuno1]

so the first pic is the ltft from this morning when i was sitting in the parking lot at work and the second is when i was sitting in my driveway after work. i was wondering why there is such a huge difference in the numbers? vac leak maybe? also dont ask why the pictures are two different sizes lol

Was it warmed up the same both times?

[locuno1]

yeah it was

[heavydtheogre]

did u have it connected longer the second time? Cause the longer it runs without the ignition off the # will change. - That's why its called "long term fuel trim"

[locuno1]

both were after about a 20 minute drive before i put the car in park, last saturday i seen i think it was -14.1 at idle after a 50 or so minute drive back from josh' and i have noticed while driving it fluctuates from -5.6 to -12ish depending on what im doing

[heavydtheogre]

That will very, from diving in town easy, or driving hard or on the highway, its normal.
