Put in a new much needed resonator. That's all.

Still stock height and boring. Still a DD. Rolled over 190K a few days ago. Bought it was 119K lol. This car might not be getting a turbo setup anymore. Might be buying a bronzemist 4 door that has 42K and that will get all of the goodies.
purple people eater > gay color
Agreed. But this car is getting tired. The bronze car has basically 1/5 of the miles. Super super clean. No rust anywhere. It's a 2000 my buddy bought three years ago with ~6800 miles. It's a much better start to a turbo project. But nothing is for sure yet. He's still deciding whether or not he wants to sell it.
You can't get rid of the Purple car, this is in my opinion the best color these cars came in, especially since it is one of the rarer colors they offered and its not red, black, silver or white like every other Grand Prix you see driving down the road.
Even if I buy this car; which isn't looking very likely since he's leaning toward not selling it, I'll still keep the purple car.
Who is on the radio?
Rammstein. Du Hast is the only song I know. I believe it's a German band. Du Hast sounds similar to Rob Zombie stuff I think. But their other songs might be different.
I have no issues with mine. I have had them for 2 years so far and they are working quite well in the dash. I also daily drive my car so they are used quite often. These have been the best LED's I have had. The previous cheap ebay one's were dead in 3 months.
Diode Dynamics does offer a 3 year warranty on their bulbs. Email them and they will replace them.
I'm not sure how old mine are. I daily the car as well. I've probably put 40-50K on the car with these in
I've had my HP3's in for almost a year, and one just started flashing. If I turn the dimmer down about half way, it stops. Kind of defeats the purpose of having brighter lights. LOL
I still have to contact DD, but hopefully it is just a bad LED that I can get warranteed.
Mine were they same way for quite awhile. If I turned the dimmer down about half way they'd stop flickering. But it seems like that doesn't really work anymore and they still flicker. The most recent one doesn't really flicker. It just completely goes out for 2-3 seconds at a time and comes back. The other two flicker pretty much non stop
Have them replaced under warranty. No money out of your pocket.
Emailed DD about the LED's, can't stand the **** anymore. Also may be putting on my suspension ****. Still have some stuff to order.
Dug all of the suspension crap out of the closet that's been in there for close to three years.
First up is the Bilstein's. There's pics of these somewhere else in the thread but here they are again. Can also see the new spring isolators on them
All four look like they can be rebuilt
Next is the drop springs. Got those from Wbodystore.
Next up is the BMR lateral links. Got these used. Gonna clean em up and redo them in hammertone so they match the trailing arms I bought which aren't here yet. Should ship today or tomorrow.
The rest of the mounts and bellows and what not.
Beffier rear Moog sway links and front poly links.
New Delco LCA's and the Moog problem solver bushings.
In this pic you can see the new sway bars. Front is the Dorman 34mm bar unwrapped. The one wrapped is the Addco rear bar.
And the FBody brakes (These pics are also in here again somewhere, probably a couple years back, literally)
The pads
Front brakes will be FBody's and stock rears. I was able to find matching pad and rotor sets for the front Fbody's and stock rears.
Left to order for the suspension is front and rear STB's and I think that's it.
Contemplating doing another retro. After 5+ years being on the car these housings are about junk. And one of the projectors is screwed up somehow and is very dim. The HID is extremely bright if you pull it out of the projector but as soon as you put it back in you can't see **** lol
