• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    4T65E Pressure Control Solenoid (1997-2002)

    Hey guys. Been out of the 3800 scene for over 5 years, and was going through some old boxes and found a brand new, never used Borg Warner 4T65E Pressure Control Solenoid. It is for years 1997-2002. I am Canada, and I am selling for $50 US shipped (save $5 on solenoid + 9-13$ shipping from TEP)...

    Occasionally surges and stalls

    Hey guys. I got a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GT with a top swap, VS cam, headers, intake etc. A few days ago, as I was accelerating from a stop, my RPM started bouncing between 200-1500, back and forth, nearly stalling it. If I let off the gas, it stalled. It fired right up, but it stalled 2 or 3...

    Shudders BAD in reverse while braking.

    Hey guys. I got a 2001 Grand Prix GT with a top swap, vs cam, headers, intake etc. Whenever I put the car in reverse, and touch the brake, the car shudders hard and feels like something is banging. It's hard to explain, but I have no idea where to start. It doesn't do it in drive or when...

    Won't Start

    Hey guys. I got a 1999 Grand Prix GT, top swapped with a VS cam, headers and intake. The past few weeks, it felt as though the starter was getting weak. I would try start it, and it wouldn't turn over. I'd give it a second try and it would work. Today, the car won't turn over at all. All I hear...

    Master cylinder leak?

    Hey guys. Went and changed my rotors and pads today and as I compressed the piston with a C clamp, brake fluid poured out from under the black piece on the firewall. I'm assuming I need a new master cylinder? I just want to make sure I order the correct part. Thanks!

    Steering Creaking at Low Speeds

    Hey guys. When I turn my wheel at low speeds, left or right, I get a loud annoying creaking coming from somewhere. It's the most noticeable in parking lots and places where I have to turn sharp to park. What could this be?

    Supercharger tensioner problem

    Hey guys. Just finished my top swap build on my 1999 GT. The only issue is the supercharger belt doesn't want to sit in the middle of the pulley on the tensioner. It moves over to the side closest to the block, and I've had it rub a few times. I've tried moving the the belt to the middle grooves...

    Top swap MAP question

    Hey guys. I have a 1999 Grand Prix GT which I just top swapped. I read if you use an L36 bin, you should use an L36 MAP. I don't have the adapter harness for the L67 MAP, and ZZP wants to charge me like $60 shipping on top of the harness. Should I just leave the L36 MAP, or splice in an L67 MAP...

    Top Swap Tuning

    I have a 1999 GT which I just top swapped, along with a VS cam, headers, and an intake. I haven't used my HP Tuners in a while and I forget where to start. I was told I should use an L67 bin and transfer over the GT transmission settings. Will a 1999 GTP bin work? Won't they have different OSIDs...

    Post Pictures of You HID Setup!

    I'm going to put new HID's in both the headlights and fog lights in my new Grand Prix, and I don't like the quality of the current ones in my old Grand Prix. I'm just curious what others' HID setups look like? Post some pics and the brand/kit that you have!

    Reuse oil pan gasket with RTV?

    I'm trying to save a bit of money on my build. Can I just reuse the oil pan gasket and put some RTV on both sides of it?

    Apparently engine was rattling, then died.

    Hey guys. I bought another Grand Prix! Yay for me. Anyways, here's the story: It's a 1999 GT, which I am going to be top swapping, with a VS cam, headers, intake etc. I picked the car up for SUPER cheap, and the body and interior are in very good shape (compared to mine). However, the engine...
