    I would rather lose by a mile because I built my own car, than lose by an inch, because someone else built it for me. Your car is your story, so don't let someone else write the book.

    ^Fixing my broken Transmission cooling Line (Man was that ever a B!tch to get to)


    ^On the Day I Went to pick it up

    ^^ on same day, before driving away, i realized that i had a major leak coming from a small line underneath my rad. Under close inspection i found that it was in fact my Transmission Cooling Line

    That was my first drive with my g-p :/

    Sorry guys, i got a few more, but i'm using some sh*t a$$ satalite highspeed internet (i live in the middle of nowhere) i'll try and get em up here (comp's laggin like a mo-fo)

    I started to debadge my trunk the otherday, still gotta remove that black crap, i'll be fixing the rust on the lip of the trunk, and lips of the front wheel wells

    i spent close to 6 hours last weekend cleaning the inside right out (havent really touched the car other than to fix my tranny cooling line) from when i bought it

    i'm investing in some dual rolled chrome tips, gonna bake my tails, and clean the moisture out of them, and reseal them (VHT tint is going to be playing a role on them :P )

    I'd sure hope so... it's a 3800 for christs sake LOL (with future plans a ZZP superharger system and all the extra goodies on a built 3800 block)

    or just do a top swap from a GTP in a junkyard?

    going boosted is a $350-400 job.

    but with fuel prices these days, id say stay n/a

    Went and snapped a few pictures the other day after trying to clean it up a lil bit (still looking for a job so i can get it on the road)














    And before anybody else says it again, I AM getting a set of near new head and tail lights for $65, I also will have a set of these on order wihen the next few weeks

    And i have just installed a DIY Intake, and removed those sh*tty broken mudflaps

    Will also be going into the local Car Quest sometime next week, and ordering some new strut mounts (all 4), front wheel-bearings, spark plugs, wires, and new ignition coil packs

    Where'd you find tails for so cheap?

    I know headlight capsules from primechoiceautoparts.ca are dirt cheap.

    Unless the coils are bad you might be better off saving your money. There seems to be a large bias towards factory coils versus anything else.

    well a buddy of mine had a g-p and he stocked up on a bunch of parts, and he wrecked his g-p so now he's on a spree to sell all the old stuff, so it's going dirt cheap
