Thread: BLACKxFLAGx Raising It UP! plus suspension woes....

Finally time for a ride thread!

Galaxy silver 2001 GTP

Bought it for $3k in Feb 2012 with 96k miles on it. Has a few dings but overall not bad for an 11 year old car.

Had to replace ignition switch the first week. Super easy

Threw on ****ty ebay intake for the moment.

Just tinted the windows, 20% all around.


Heres some pics.

It's a great start. I wish my first one looked that good.
Silver always looks nice tinted.

Thanks Rico.

Forgot to add that i needed to get new pads and rotors. Bought some Eline molded drilled and slotted rotors for pretty much the same price of regs.

clean car. those rotors look real good behind the rims.

Is that the correct rotation on the rotor?

yes, installed using manufacturer's suggested rotation

Looks good man, needs some mods

Those a good looking wheels on a good looking car no need to plasti dip them. What other plans do you have for the car?

Wow, that looks great!

I actually hate chrome. I really want some 98ish cobra rims like bigburban has/had.
As far as plans for the car, I really can't say. I want a clean stock like look.
As far as performance goes, I'm going headers 3.4 tune. I think that should be fine for a daily, but I dunno once the quickness wears off I'm sure I'll want to go further.

Need some opinions.
What do you guys think about these http://www.grandprixforums.net/msr-0...use-64738.html on my gp?

I would powder coat them black or gunmetalish

Updates tomorrow!

Need rim pics naooooooooo

So I went to put them on and fail. I need thinner lug nuts.
I put one on and hand tightened the lugs to see what it looked like. It looks better than I thought it would but it looks like its hurting for a squir.... wait, I mean drop.
Went to the parts store to pick some up and they all sucked. Going to order some nice ones online when i get some extra cash.
I suppose they will just sit in the garage until then.

Heres the pic with one on.

Black crystals came in today! will post pics tonight when the lighting is better
