• 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.

    Looking for a replacement on the Grand Prix

    Howdy folks, My sister just got her license and my parents want me to give my GTP to her. It's not too big of a deal in the meantime since I also have a GTO but I do need a DD. I've been happy with my 01 GTP and was looking for a nice successor to the car. I'm not sure if I could buy another...

    Misfiring and general electrical issues.

    Hi everyone, I got a 2001 GTP and it's been treating me well but it's been having some strange issues. The first problem is this where the CEL blinks when at I at least put more than 50% on the throttle and I see the little boost gauge fill up. Last I checked it it was a Cylinder 6 misfire I...

    Flashing CELs and just altered ride feel in general

    Our 2001 Grand Prix GTP hit 100k miles last month and was going strong but then some problems arose recently. 1. When accelerating hard sometimes the CEL light flashes then goes away. 2. When driving 35-50mph the car shakes bad and the sensation feels like it's coming more from the bottom...

    What car would you realistically buy next?

    I love my GTP and will hold on to it for as long as I can. It's the first car I was able to buy with my own money, though I'm a little embarrassed I never put the registration and other little fees into account so my dad actually had to cover me. Working as a nurse at nights with less than...

    Alternatives to the Aeroforce Interceptor?

    I was reading on of the the stickies that it was recommended to get one of these when starting to mod a GTP. I was all for it until a friend of mine's Regal GS got broken into at the local mall and the only thing they stole was the interceptor from the A Pillar. Is there an alternative to...

    I think I'm starting to hate night shift

    I work nights at a nursing home/rehab facility 11P-7A and twice a week at my friend's university tutoring people in the evening. I'm happy to be working and earning a living but god damn the hours are starting to kill me. Sometimes I sleep 9-12 hours if it's not the day I have to go to the...

    Neighbors deciding to go out to the track

    So my neighbors are deciding to have a get together and take the cars out to the track. Some of my neighbors are even deciding to "race" so to speak with their DD's which is pretty cool. I'm driving a 2001 GTP and the only thing I've done with the car is....nothing other than maintain it since I...

    Question about GTP suspension stock.

    On my 2001 GTP when I drive over small crack on the road/hole no matter the size, I seriously feel the bumps and it scares the living crap out of me. The only other car that's worse when it comes to the bumps is my friend's 02 RSX. The previous car I've driven is a 1999 Chrysler Concorde and I...

    Squeaky sound coming from the left side of the engine bay.

    When I start up my '01 GTP I've been hearing a squeaky noise coming from the left side of the engine bay where all the belts and pulleys seem to be. Unfortunately, I'm not much of a technical genius in cars to figure out which pulley is loose or what not. My dad is taking a look at the car too...

    01' GTP security system is acting wonky.

    Bought a GTP a few weeks ago it was all fine and dandy. But when we got the keyless fob (one of the Delphi ones) programmed at some place the dealer recommended things started to go downhill. I'd unlock the car with the fob, but when I start the car up BAM: The HUD would turn off (The one that...

    2001 GTP and aftermarket headunits

    I got a 2001 GTP about a week ago and I'm enjoying it, but I want to hook up my MP3 player to the car without using the godawful FM Transmitter I have. Right now I'm thinking of getting an aftermarket headunit but there seems to be issues if I do it. I can lose steering wheel control...
