• 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.

    Headlights are better after installing new struts

    Car rides heck of a lot better and handles like a dream! But now since i have installed the new struts all the way around, my night driving seems to be better. The headlights actually do better now, my logical answer would be that the car sits higher and the focal point of the lights are at the...

    KYB or Monroe

    I have looked though most of the threads and havent found much about comparisons on Stock replacement struts and springs for my 2003 SE. I have the common rear sag and the outside of my tires on the front are wearing a bit faster than they should. Quick struts are nice, but i have the tools and...

    Pioneer DEH-3200UB

    Just ordered this head unit. I have moved on to using my IPOD but I also have an 8 gig Jump drive. Anyone else have this head unit? The reviews were good and the IPOD/USB interface sounds like it runs well.

    SE owners

    My 03 SE has decent AC. But I have noticed on real hot days the temperature of the air from my AC gets a little warm when I sit at idle for a bit, or when I accelerate real drastic. Is this a comman SE problem? Or will a can of 134A take care of my issue. The car is 7 years old and I have no...

    How solid is the 3.1L

    I have had my SE for almost 3 months now and I can not complain about it at all. I know that the block is basically a 2.8L and they have changed the pistons and the upper part of the engine. But what about the crank and the injectors? I know that in the late 80's and early 90's the 2.8 MFI was...

    20 Mimute Wheel Bearing......HA!

    Well what I thought was going to take 20 minutes to change, took 2 hours and a lot of cutting with a torche! Had to replace the CV axel too, since the heat boiled out the grease and the sledge destroyed the end of it. I have done a multitude of these and this one has been the worst!

    trunk lid vibration

    I know Dynamat is a good start, but I have vibration in my Bumper cover also? I have 2 10" Alpine type S and a 940 watt Kenwood amp. SO..... the trunk lid moves a bit and I have a stupid rattle in the back....Sounds good inside but I don't want it to sound like that when I have it up way loud....

    Strut Mount rattle

    Well, i thought it was. Sounded just like a strut mount rattle. Turns out it was the hood latch was out of adjustment and causing the hood to rattle. This may be some mis diagnosed suspension rattles out there. I have noticed a lot of people have replaced entire strut assymblies, ball joints...

    3.1L intake

    This is my first 3.1L but not my first GM. Had a 2.8 in my S-10 14 years ago. So is there any surprises on changing out the intake gaskets upper and lower? and is there a build thread on here? If not I may make one up. If and when i have to do it to mine.

    New to the Site

    new to the site but not the grand prix world. Used to have a 2004 Grand Prix GTP. Now I have a 2003 Grand Prix Se (commuter car) Love the car as much as the other. I like the 3.1 with the gas mileage it gets.
