Your right rick/rkelc did take care of this car. He was a down right freak - it was a garage baby. But I couldn't think of a better person to buy a car from. The list of things he did is endless and Flip spent a lot of time on this car as well. I won't lower it, but I will swap headlights - driving at night brings back memories of how horrendous the light output was on these. I spent a lot of time on my last gp with lighting. I was gonna do a morimoto mini swap but found a guy that does retro on here for reasonable price. Don't want the stupid led strip halo etc. Just nice projector hids.
Wasn't problem free under the hood though. LIM gasket leaked both valve covers leaked oil pan leak. Normal 3800 stuff. Just surprised at 65k....called gm since mine is part of recall for front valve fire maker cover, no idea when parts would be in to fix. So had my shop Fixed all that with felpro gaskets and new wheel bearings and links - just need some new tires since they were chopped and wore.
Rims are just cheap eBay Effects wheelz. I do like them. 18x8 245/45- love.the custom comp g badges rick made for car. So many details only I would appreciate or a fellow gp owner.
10 years ago I would of said it's to slow and need to mod asap. Now I'm actually OK with the power......for now ��
Downpipe tune maybe RR. My areoforce Guage shows 3-6* of knock - pathetic for stock car. Wanna get rid of that so it's running clean. Unlike the last owner I will acctualy drive this lol. Not much. Maybe 5 K a year so it does need to be reliable and practical to a degree �� I had some brilliant guys tune my last gps so.i never cared to learn how myself. Now local club gone so wish I would have learned.
This car sure turns heads. My favorite compliment is "what the hell is it?" �� sure missed the blower whine. No wonder I haven't got over 19 mpg lol.
