    hi guys this saturday i am getting a 2000 4door gtp, it is from a friend of a friend that has outgrew the gtp era. Mods that i know of are genV blower 1.8 roller rockers/ls2 springs, slp headers, res deleate, ubend delete,custom air breather, upgreded exhast,modular pully, full suspension upgrade (everything from strut towers to trailing arms) lots off visual upgrades ill post pictures later its been in some magazines and stuff its really customized. anyways i look forward to continuing engine mods and maybe doing a little demods on the visual, i dont like a few things on it thank god theirs no racing stripes.

    Save your money and get a trans, most guys with Modded GP's, sell when the trans is about to go, just saying.

    good info, tonight i noticed when i hit 100 and shift to 4th it wants to fall on its face, if i let off and get back into it, she keeps on going fine....had it up to 120 and let off. Could this be because of torque management I read that its ruff on 4th if you shift into at WOT. So i thought maybe he had it tuned to back off the torque at 4th shift point. Idk if this is even possible but it sorta makes sense to me.
