• 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.

    3.8L 3 series ghost misfire

    Yep, I'd clean up the MAF and TB for sure. Read up on how to clean both of those as I'm not sure how to clean the electronic TB's on these cars (mine has a cable still). That rough cold idle shouldn't exist. I can go out in freezing temps and fire my GP up and it idles just as smooth as when...

    3.8L 3 series ghost misfire

    What codes is it throwing? That would help us figure it out. Beyond that, what brand of coils did you install? If it's anything but OEM then I'd get rid of them. The stock coils are best on these cars. What type/brand of spark plugs did you install? Copper, Irridium...? Have you ever...

    replacement rear bumper reinforcement

    And before I forget, try car-part.com. A lot of places will ship if you aren't local to one. any 97-03 GP should fit.

    replacement rear bumper reinforcement

    They are similar, but the Monte ones have holes across the top. The shape and placement of the brackets look the same, so worst case you may have to drill a few new holes in it to mount the foam that attaches to it. If you can find a GM part number for the GP one post it up.

    A Little Surprised!

    The W-body had a long run for sure, but the newer platforms and tech finally caught up would be my guess. Once turbos and tuning software was available and for a more nimble chassis I think that was the end. The M90 was replaced with a turbo setup on a lot of builds I saw here and made great...

    The Last Indian

    That's cool, another MPD hood still around. I lucked into my MPD hood for mine from a member in Kansas and had it painted for my 2000 GT. I have an NOS SD lip here but never installed it. Wasn't quite sure I wanted to do all the work it takes to blend it in properly so I still have it. Once...

    The Last Indian

    Nice clean GP! Is that a chin spoiler on top of an SD lip or is it all 1 piece? Also, is that a true MPD F1 hood or the all fiberglass version?

    2008 kicked into limp mode and doesn't want to shift out of Park. Help.

    Pretty sure if the shift interlock doesn't think the car is in Park it won't release the key.

    Problem after installing new brake pedal position sensor. Help, please.

    Since you installed a new brake pedal position sensor, verify that the brake lights are working properly and not stuck on all the time or not coming on when the pedal is pressed. This will stop the shift interlock from working as designed (can't shift from Park if the car thinks the brake is...

    2008 kicked into limp mode and doesn't want to shift out of Park. Help.

    First thing I would do is verify that all the battery cables and ground connections are CLEAN and tight. A bad ground will cause all kinds of havoc. I've had a bad connection completely kill my GP from starting just because the neg. cable was slightly loose on the battery. Here are some...

    I'd be willing to bet that member Idrivejunk could find it. I know he's around here from time to time.

    Nice looking Holden Ute. That a V8 version?

    A long Lost GTX

    I hope that car goes to someone who will actually use it and not drive it into the ground. Looks like it would clean up super nice.

    04' GTP 2 won't start.

    I'm sure you've tested the battery voltage when you hit the key, but if it dives below 10 it's not gonna crank. It sounds like the battery is toast. Other than that, check all your cables/grounds. Sitting for 2 months is no good on the battery. I played this game all late fall/winter with my...
