Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged



Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Very nice job Sir, knew you could do it yourself, fvck paying to have it done. To bad you aren't down south, it was 80* and sunny, I had to run the A/C LOL. I was sweating my butt off today.

Once those settle they will really look awesome, mine took about a month to fully settle, after two weeks though I noticed a difference.

Haha thanks, yeah I'd rather pay for new links than 350 to get it done. It's snowing almost an inch today n grounds covered, so looks like I'm not finished today. Gotta go plow/salt it all anyway soon
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Totally forgot you had a 06 and the sway bar link set up is a bit different..darn. At least you got most of it done. The rear should settle a bit more once you get some miles and the other spring on it.

Lol yeah, why its different, I will never know or understand haha. But im mad I cant get it done today. I just hope it doesn't affect anything.
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Lmao that's GM for you. Well you kind of choose the wrong time to be lowering it in that weather lol maybe I encouraged you a bit to much to get it done. My bad!

Haha naw I wasn't expecting this snow! Springs supposedly tomorrow haha.
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

I often as myself why do I wait till the worse time to start doing crap to the car..example: sound dampening and doing a complete interior swap during the winter (FL winter..yea there's no snow but still to cold for what I'm use to) , cam swap (that was done I believe in winter to) lowering was also done then.
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Lol do you drive it as much in the winter tho? I go for 2-3 days without driving sometimes j n winter. I stay at home untill my girl gets off of school. Only thing I need to worry about is if I have to plow. N worse comes to worse my boss lives by me n can scoop me up if my cars out of commision. I quit smoking and got on an electronic cigarette so that saves a trip to gas station everyday too lol and a sh*t ton of money. So I luckily can get away without a car in winter so thats a good time for me. Just wish I had a garage lol. N im used to working in negative degree weather so it doesn't bother me too much.
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

I still drove quite a bit in the winter but if needed I can get around without the car. Usually summer/spring I'm out and about a lot more then normal so that could be the reason. Wish I had a garage to.. Well I do but it's to small. Now I can use my sisters garage or a friends if needed but its to late now lol everything else has been done.
 


Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Yup if all goes as plan as soon as I fly back it'll get everything else buttoned up.
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

barley looks like its lowered haha, shoulda went with coilovers, unless it still needs to settle
 
Re: Red 2006 Grand Prix GT Supercharged (Lowered & Rims)

Looks good man.

However, this is why I switched from DNA's to Canuck's (made specifically for the GXP.) The rear quite literally did not move. In fact, they may have almost raised it a little bit.

Coilovers $1200+ vs DNA springs $86ish


It's not even comparable when you justify price

Lol yeah well im finishing the last one now then well see houw it turns out. I took measurements so in a few days I can check. I can see it lowered a little n all I care about is wheel gap. Ssc or canucks may have been worth it cuz the crap ive gone thru to do it makes me not wanns do it again but its getting easier
