• 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.

    We had a lot of heavy rain this weekend and saturday morning I am stopped turning into a drugstore parking lot and BANG some ****head in a conversion van hits me from behind.

    removing tint.

    Does anybody have some tips on removing window tint? My GTP was tinted when i got it and since I bought it out of state I have to get it inspected and R.I. allows NO tint on any area of a passenger car. I got the windshield strip, side windows and the little windows for the rear seat done and it...

    Misfiring?

    I got in the GTP this morning and it is misfiring like crazy. I stopped at autozone on my way to work to have them scan it but it just came up as multiple misfires. I am going to change the plugs and wires and also have some gaskets (intense mls head,lim,valve cover gaskets) to change when I get...

    brand quality

    I havn't done a nice system in any of my cars in about 4 years. Certian brands were considered really good or good quality brands that were fairly new and a little pricey at the time. I just wanted some input on the quality of the brands since I havnt been involved in the scene in a while. MA...

    trouble codes.

    My check engine light was on and I knew the GTP has a bad shift solenoid so I scanned it. It threw codes p0742 = tcc stuck on and code p0756 = 2-3 shift solenoid. Looks like its time to get a triple edge tranny since its really not worth fixing a 90k mile unit, for another 5-700 over repair cost...

    99+ coolant reserve swap??

    I swapped the coolant reserve bottle on my 98 GTP today and I know it seems streightforward but theres no way to bolt it onto the car on the bottom. Theres a lil hole there but its not threaded and it doesn't go all the way to the other side where I could get a new nut/bolt combo to hold the...

    Good shop in RI,CT, or MA?

    Does anybody know of a reputable shop with some experience with our sc3800 motor? I live in R.I. so a ride to CT or MA wouldnt be bad. Sooner or later I am going to need a good tune or some install done ( i try to do as much as possible myself) and I dont want someone learning the 3800 on my car.

    stock speaker sizes

    Does anyone know offhand what size speakers came in the 98 GTP 2 door? My decklid speakers are shot and I figure I should upgrade to something simple for now (working on motor before sound). Can I just buy nice aftermarket replacements, will they work with the factory deck and amp?

    wont shift outta second.

    I picked up a 98 gtp 2 door last nite and the seller told me the car needed a solenoid? he provided the part but since I practicly stole the car ($1000 with 90k on it) I assume he is bs-ing me. I planned on putting a zzp tranny anyway but I was wondering if there might be something to it. First...
