• 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.

    Fiberglass Hood Painting

    Picked up an SD hood for a decent price, only problem is it's white and may car is black... I have a cheap HVLP gun that I've used before with some less than great results. Is there any canned paint that would do an OK job on something this size? I've also never pained anything this big made of...

    Auto Headlights

    This is something I've wondered about since I bought this car. Apparently it didn't come with DRLs, because the lights are never on during the day. However, there is no way to tun the lights off automatic. The control knob has 3 settings, (off, park, on) but if it is dark out, the switch...

    Michigan roads SUCK

    Great article in the Detroit Free Press about how bad Michigan's roads have gotten since 2005. http://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2015/03/28/michigan-roads-rate-poorly/70608358/ Now our clown of a governor wants to raise sales tax to 7%, after he spent his whole first term cutting...

    Trans line leak

    Well I've been losing trans fluid for like a month now and it seems to be getting faster. No leak from the pan or by the CV axles. There is however fluid on the air dam and on that big plastic conduit that runs along the bottom of the radiator. It looks to me like the cooler lines run right...

    First time ever drag racing!

    Friday I went out to my local drag strip for the first time as a driver. Wanted to get some numbers before I did any work to the GTP. Drag strip is 1/8 mile, weather was about 75-80 with low humidity. I averaged about a 9.9 sec 1/8 mile at around 71 mph. slower runs were with a passenger. Mind...

    Black 2000 GTP Sedan

    Been on the site for a little while now and thought it was time to put some pictures up. I bought my GTP last fall and basically just used it to get around CMU and back home some weekends. Now that it's warm, and school is out (for the most part, damn summer classes) I wanted to get into making...

    No power after radio removal

    Like it says, I took the old Alpine deck out, found the previous owner had done the install right and not cut the harness up! I figure hey, this will be an easy job. Attach the new Pioneer to the connector the alpine had on it, plug it all in, aaaand... nothing. And not just no power to the...

    LIM gasket identifiable?

    I've done lots of searching but I can't find anything about if there is a way to check if the infamous LIM gasket is the original poor design or the better redesign. Are there any signs as to which one it is? The car has about 180K on it so I'm guessing that it has been replaced at some point in...

    Adjust air gap?

    I've found a million threads across the Internet with people complaining about engine compartment rattle but they never get anywhere. That is to say, they just die off without ever getting good information. Now I know exactly what is going on with my car: the air gap between the clutch and...
