    Hey this is my 2000 gtp coupe. The setup it had was

    3.4 pulley
    headers
    Eibach Pro-kit
    full exhaust
    brake upgrade
    custom tune
    cone filter intake.

    Bought it 4 years ago for 8k with 60K miles. Died today with 122,219 miles. Motor is gone and trans is gone. here are some pics from a few days ago and then tonight on the side of the highway...















    it's gone now.. was on my way to sell if for 1k.. now it's worth nothing.

    no, i went to pass some dude going slow, i went to go from 65 to 80, and it stocking knocking like crazy, and went into reduced power, then shut off. i got it towed to my dudes house, we checked some stuff out, then went to fire it up, and it's a nasty top end knock.

    4th gear is overrated anyways...

    Just put a stock pulley back on the blower and toss a short block back in it.

    THEN, sell it.

    Way more profit...breh.

    I would almost bet you chipped a piston. I have 2 like that. As a matter of fact I think they both were the #3 piston.

    Well, it looks like either way ur good to go. Either fix it, or you can part it out and prob make more than a grand out of it. It'll take a bit of work tho. Also interested in springs if u go that route. Other guy has first dibs tho. :-(
