Just like swapping a pulley on a supercharger and expecting the stock engine to take the abuse.

The only thing Ive seen a GN break were the rear ends. If theyre built correctly, they'll put it down all day long.

Theres a button beside the "quote" button.

It will help you consolidate your posts.

Go buy a Honda already.

NSX is a great car with no problems and outpaced Ferrari's back in the day.

You will PAY for quality.

A GM will nickel and dime you.

And I'm not sure cops actually like the W body impala's...

3800 means the same BS issues that we all tend to deal with like faulty electronics on the whole and poor gasket design.

Where ever do you get your numbers? Because I'm sure they don't apply to the entire fleet.

Heres a true story.... Grand Prix's of the 97-03 variety are one of the most common cars in my town.

I haven't had a single person ask me to price out bearings for one in my 2 years at a parts store.

In fact the only things i've ever been asked for are oil filters, air filters, CAI, and brakes. Not even a single caliper.

No alternators, no LIM gaskets, no nothing.

In the shop however we have had a couple LIM gasket jobs but nothing else major in terms of suspension or electrical.
