    Need Brakes for my GXP

    havent had a time to really look at it closely, but when it was on the lift I noticed that on the passanger side the rotor on the inside was reaaalllly rough, lots of grooves, while the outside was nice and smooth.. Dunno if the caliber is sticking or what.. but just looking for a good NOT...

    New GXP owner with a few questions.

    Just picked a 2006 gxp last Saturday and have a few questions. When tuning out DOD/AFM „ can it simply just be deleted, while leaving stock lifters and cam in? What should be done after that is done? Any seafoam, decarbonization of sorts, or something that could clean up the ( more than...

    Just Bought a new ( to me ) 2006 GXP.. What do I need to know?

    SO I just bought a very nice 06 GXP for a very good price.. I couldn't pass it up even tho Ive heard some horror stories about the transmission, Active fuel management, oil pan seal or something, Lifters taking a **** etc etc.. Car runs and feels awesome, but I am preparing for the worst. SO...

    Sold the Grand Prix, Bought a 2001 WS6.. snapped a few pics

    Well I sold my 2006 GT a while ago.. Miles were getting up there and the price it would take to make it a 12 second car with suspension, trans, motor upgrades etc, I just wanted to sell it while it still had some value.. Sold it, and 6 months later finally found a replacement. 01 ws6 w/ 114k...

    Ok to go from a Synthetic oil, to a synthetic blend??

    I've been using Full Syn ( mobile 1 HM ) since I bought my car, and the previous owner used Full syn as well.. They didnt have any 5/30 at wallyworld, so I picked up Valvoline Max life syn 'blend', not the full syn... Its about 1/2 the cost and from what I know , has always been a good oil in...

    looking for a setof winter tires... any suggestions?

    I've had witerforces. And l loved them as they lasted about 3 times as long as my blizzaks and were almost as good, except in deep deep snow and ice... Anything under 8" and they were great. . So now I want to try something else. And am looking at 3 Continental Extreme winter contact...

    So my GF and I are looking at a new car for her and in typical girl fashion she wants the cute little car with the fat ass.. Just wondering if this is a good motor/car , the motor LOOKS amazing, but also looks expensive.. Any feed back would be great.. Im trying to get the car for 7K, but it...

    2004+ 18" wheels with ssc springs. What size tre and offset rim?

    Title pretty much says it all. I'm going to move away from the engine modding for now and just go for looks. I have a 06 GT and was wondering what offset the rims can be and what tires will fit without looking like a rubber band , and will not rub when turning. Thinking 245/45/18? I am...

    Question about hard shifts, trans mounts and additives

    So I got a pan drop, filter and intense shift kit installed, which was great, and shift much better and firmer, now with the addition of my overkill pcm, its pretty ridiculous.. the 1-2 shift at WOT makes it shift so hard it sounds like its clunking, 2-3 is a little better but not much...

    From what I have seen they have head gasket and intake gasket issues just like the 3100s and 3800s from back in the day as well?? I'm asking because there is a very nice 99 grand am gt locally here that I'm guessing I could get for about $2000 and I would use it as a mileage dd and winter car...

    Quick question about roller rockers

    Finally decided what I'm going to do with my build. Nothing much but its something. Headers and rockers. Just wondering what is the best option for rockers since I want to just leave the stock springs in because of finances and someone else will be doing it. 1.8 seems to be the best option...

    Going to the track in a few weeks with the grand prix and the GT-R, any predictions?

    Well a friend of mine just got their 2012 gtr back from forged performance, with a fully built motor, Cobb ap tuned. Ran a 9.94 @ 148 spinning on 335 series street tires and eventually breaking the front driveshaft. So they are heading back to forged for a little re tune and to up the boost as...
