Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

    Could I make money flipping this engine?

    05 Grand Prix motor 3800 Do you guys think I could make money tearing this motor down? It's an 05 NA with the better rods and only 42k miles, barely broken in. I know a lot of members do side work/flip cars and I wouldn't mind trying to supplement some modding income. How would you break...

    Durk's 04 GT2

    Going to be doing some modding so I decided to make a ride thread. This was my 95 Monte that I traded in to get the Prix. It had major rust issues which was a shame because it looked and ran nice for its age. My car (before the SPO grill and pin stripe delete) Back is debadged somewhat...

    1 3 5 plugs looking lean.

    So today I did some preventative maintenance and changed my plugs and wires at 76K. 2-4-6 looked good, but 1-3-5 were on the white side, #5 was the worst. I know #5 usually has problems due to the manifold design. What would cause this and what can I do? I always run either 91 or 93 due to the...

    Poll: Choose the color of my calipers

    1. Black 2. Silver 3. Red I've got Impala dual piston calipers coming and they have the yellow parts writing on them and I figure I might as well clean them up while they're off the car. The brackets will be black, but you guys decide the caliper color. I want at least 50 votes. I messed the...

    Stripped Caliper bolt thread

    Need some advice... I threw a set of junk pads on my car this weekend while I'm waiting for my rotors and pads to come in (tired of hearing grinding) and the upper caliper bolt on my LF wouldn't come out. I ended up using a breaker bar to get it out and noticed the threads inside were trashed...

    04GT F sway bar vs 04GTP

    There is an 04 GTP front sway bar on ebay from Morad. I'd post the link but I'm at work and don't get ebay anymore. :( I asked them if there was a difference, like if it was a thicker comp g sway bar and they wrote back and said they thought it was the same. So now, I'm asking you all, my...

    Charging system failure

    While I appreciate the warning on my DIC returning to my work from lunch, I can't imagine the proactive approach I could have taken by having a FREAKIN VOLT GAUGE to let me see slower charging before it got to this point. I don't understand why newer cars have to be so dumbed down. On the...

    Question on spark plugs

    So I installed my PCM from 3800 performance (yay) and now I've got a serious case of the knocks. Octane booster didn't help. The sticky suggests different spark plugs what do you guys recommend or have had success with? I know I will need some kind of exhaust mod too.

    New rear emblems

    So I think whenever someone stole my window vent shades they also tried to pick off my emblems on the back of the car because I went to wash it and they were all messed up and the GRAND PRIX was crooked on the left to begin with. So I order a new GT emblem on ebay that said it was for the GP but...

    More info on 3800performance PCM's

    I ordered one and asked them about the increased trans line pressure. There are some threads that talk about it being raised to 96psi and eventually killing the trans, and this being especially bad with the 04+. I shot 3800P an email asking them about it and this is what they said. We raise it...

    Who steals one vent visor?

    I travel around for work and was in a fairly nice area yesterday. I get to my car and my rear left vent visor was ripped off :mad:. Who steals one vent visor? I guess this idiot didn't realize that you can't easily reattach them. My drivers side one is barely hanging on now they must have tried...

    Yet another new guy

    Hi, I just got rid of my POS Monte Carlo for this low mileage beauty. 04 GT, 34K miles. I really like the W-body cars, my MC rusted out and was turning into a big money pit, the brake lines blew twice this year so it had to go. Shame it was a clean car. I'm not going to go too crazy on it, I...
