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

    I'm looking at purchasing my dads 2003 impala but it will need some repair on the underbody. I can weld but how far around the affected area should I go? I will be welding in all new material.

    Car vs car situation

    This isnt a general "this car is better than that car" threads.. But I'm more asking for advice. First I'll own up to the mistakes I made. Earlier this year I decided I'd try to rebuild my own transmission. Probably didnt do as well as I could have, but one of the major mistakes I made is not...

    Bluetooth and Torque Pro app- Live KR monitor

    Since Torque Pro doesnt have a KR monitor, I thought I'd post up a How-to, to get it so you can monitor KR. First you need the paid version of Torque Pro. It's $4.99 in the app market, which isnt bad at all. Next you'll need a bluetooth OBD2 adaptor. These can be had on ebay for around $15...

    Thick film inside SC

    In lieu of this thread, I decided to make a thread of my own to address an issue I have. http://www.grandprixforums.net/curiosity-has-best-me-pvc-78886.html Inside my SC behind the throttle body, there is a thick black film which I believe to be oil. I think the PCV is to blame, but it does...

    Why does Ford have magnetized bumpers?

    So they can catch the parts that fall off... And.. So they can latch onto chevys that pass them.

    MAF Issues?

    Before today, The car had an issue with staying running. Narrowed it down to the maf sensor, because the car would stay running with the maf unplugged. I just replaced the sensor and now the car runs for about 3 seconds and dies. Unplug the MAF and it stays running. If you start the car with the...

    Charging system issues. Help please

    So I've had a rather frustrating night trying to get my alternator working. Since 2 alternators arent working, both test good, and I know the 1 worked before I pulled the motor, I've turned to wiring. First I added a 0 guage wire from the alternator to the battery + terminal. I left the stock...

    Weird trans pan stamp...

    Was under my car today for some exhaust work and I noticed an odd stamp on my trans pan... It says "4T60E" "Product of GMC" The car is a 1998 GTP. Is this a 4T65E with a 4T60E trans pan, or are the 65's stamped with 60?

    Re: Jevik's 98 GTP coupe - Car tattoo finished! Pics and video.

    Re: Jevik's 98 GTP coupe - Car tattoo finished! Pics and video. After a long frustrating car search, I had decided upon this beauty. She's got 196k miles and hardly any rust. Rockers are good. The only specks of rust seem to be under the gas door.. Pardon the snow.. Was extremely bitter outside...

    neglected:(

    Well as I went to check the fluids to make sure they're in order, trans fluid was barely showing on the dipstick, oil was about 6 inches past the full line, and the coolant was dark brown. The overflow tank was like a brown sludge. I think previous owner saw drops of "oil" coming from the...
