• 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.

    Repair costs vs. vehicle value...

    I thought I'd start this thread because I've seen quite a few posts on here where people are debating spending the money on, say, a new transmission when it might cost more than the car is "worth." A lot of these old GP's may only bring a thousand or two at a dealer, auction, or craigslist. My...

    My opinion on deleting the resonator

    The stock resonator on my car had developed an annoying buzz and a small leak so it had to go. I read all the old threads on here regarding removal of the resonator and replacement with a glass pack, vs. straight pipe, and all the differing opinions on sound. Well, today, I'd had enough, and...

    So I live in Florida, where it's a little warm this time of year. My car, being an original Florida car, was not ordered from the factory with unnecessary options like heated seats. Still, there have been a couple occasions over the last few months where I would swear that dammed driver seat...

    New guy here saying hi.

    Gentlemen (and Ladies, if you're here) I figured I might as well introduce myself. I'm new to this forum, though not new to the GP that I own, nor to the car hobby in general. My main driver is the 2005 GTP in the signature picture below, on which I've put very many good miles. The car had...

    Tear down report for a very high mileage, stock engine

    I’m new on this forum, but have read here a bit and it seems like a good group. I thought I’d share what I found with a tear-down of a very high mileage older engine, for those of you who are getting to that point, as well. All these cars are old now, but mine has an above average number of...
