    Im gonna try to put pictures up but not sure if my phone will allow it.

    Anyways I bought a 2000 gtp completely stock and ran into the ground. Had 140k with a fresh rebuilt trans. This car had every light on the dash on. Brakes grinding. Steering off dog **** allllllll over the interior. Hadn't been washed in a long time. It was bad

    Since october here's what I've done

    Outter tie rods - moog
    Both front hubs ( abs light was had code for both)
    upper strut mounts front- both were crumbled tires were leaning way in
    Front and rear struts
    front pads and rotors
    rear pads and rotors
    New black housing lights and corners- stock were glued together and hazed bad
    Lower control arms- bushings were bad
    New drivers seat 1 hinge broke so seat was crooked
    new cd player (didn't have one)
    new tires all 4 worn inside down to threads
    new black carpet inside
    custom embroided floormats
    new 105 plugs
    Delco wires
    Delco fuel filter
    Hot air Intake
    lower intake gaskets replaced to steel ones
    2 injectors ( both had open circuit codes)
    New converter( code set)
    u bend and resonator removed
    Both radiator hoses
    trans fluid flush
    Coolant flushed to green
    Supercharger oil changed low and smelled horrible
    Thicker front sway bar( broke on both sides)
    Front links and bushings
    Doing fbody brakes this weekend

    Now I can begin modding. I work in a shop and bought most parts at a discounted price so it didn't cost me nearly as much
