    When I first bought the car. It was an upgrade from my old 3800se




    My first mods were a cold air intake (home mader) and a zzp tuned pcm.



    I then put halo headlights and LED taillights on the car. (halos soon burnt out and got replaced with stockers)




    I then put on zzp ceramic coated headers


    along with the TOG catless downpipe from zzp


    I then got a ported/polished supercharger and throttle body. (with the silencer ports plugged so she screamed) but an engine bay shot ill show you later.

    I then changed from the ugly snowflake GP rims over to some mustang SVT rims


    Then It was black friday at ZZP so I bought a whole bunch of small things to improve performance and handling
    -trailing arms
    -strut tower bar
    -diagonal braces
    -coil packs
    -zzp plug wires
    -polished aluminum valve covers
    (agian engine bay shot later building anticipation)

    I then blew my rear struts and they needed replacing so i bought the kyb agx coil overs from zzp... why not gtp got low!




    yup that low

    I then blacked out my headlights


    I made a GTP grill badge and slapped her on (blacked headlights didnt last long hahah)



    I then sold the rims from the mustang (it was a must i couldnt be rocking mustang rims) and picked up some torque stars until i found another set.


    I am only allowed to post 25 pics at a time so this is part 1/3 keep scrolling for the rest of the story! it gets much better scroll 3 posts down

    Now comes the fun part. XP cam and many other goodies ordered! and the wicked install (left the motor in):

    We dropped the subframe down so we could gain accsess to the cam in the passanger fenderwall


    (in that process the steering shaft pulled apart which sucked)
    but it still wasnt far enough down so we braced the motor and just took the subrame right out.








    the table full of parts.



    MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM yummy


    lots of leaking gaskets later she was back together. I tucked a whole bunch of wires and pollished and painted a whole bunch parts while they where all off of the car.



    I now needed something to moniter with so....



    2 scan gauges where bought.


    followed by an air fuel.


    Here is the engine bay pic (sorry its so dirty)



    Tires then got shreaded


    Now the rim search was on.

    (5ziegen's)

    nahh

    Wedssports



    not bad.

    but I ended up rocking the torque stars for a little while longer.

    now I started some exterior mods

    I got the front and rear accents painted black


    I picked up some roof rails and painted them black. (purple in the picture)


    I got the 40th anny spoiler and had the key hole shaved off.

    how bad does it look without a spoiler?!



    picked up some clear corners


    ripped out the seats



    in prep for the new ones

    the 04+ gtp more "huggy" double heated bucket seats

    high 200's, nothing exciting, but he seems to have all of the important mods.

    Especially excellent taste in wheels.

    As for the mustang runs I also liked them but the offset and width just wasn't there plus I was driving around a grand prix gtp with mustang rims. The car was built to beat the mustang not sport it's rims hahah but yes I did like them. And I'm pretty sure I'm running more than upper 200's for whp I haven't mentioned all of the mods just all of the important ones like you said hahah it's a very long list. But the next move will be a genV and an intercooler but before I go that route I should start worring about my tranny she is bone stock and holding up quite nicely knock on wood :s
