    Quick gasket question

    Hi guys, I have a 2000 GTP and I'm changing out the piston rings in my car and decided to change out all the gaskets as well. My problem is that here in Dubai parts are not that easily available (I would like to not order online because of time constraints) and the gasket kits available are...

    Quick Question on Stuck Blend Door Actuator

    2000 GTP 90,000 miles HVAC requires constant recharging with R134. A leak pressure test doesn't have any obvious signs on a leak on the HVAC lines in the engine bay, and here in Dubai its next to impossible to find R134 with dye. The one error code my digital CC gives is a stuck drivers side...

    Vibration and fluctuating Speedo

Any of...

    F*****g Rain!

    I know I live in Southern California so I have very little right to complain, but ******* I hate the rain! I've lived in sunny Dubai for over 20 years and gray skies just make me gloomy. To top it off I couldn't fly today since visibility and wind conditions were so poor. Bollocks!

    Southern Rock fans?

    Anyone here a southern rock fan? I only really listened to Lynard Skynard, .38 Special and ZZTop until a couple days ago when I heard Drive-by Truckers. Now I need more recommendations, so if anyone here knows a good band, post in this thread.

    Fabricating new headers

    Hi guys, I know you can buy headers off ebay or what have you, but since I'm about to dole out a fortune shipping my car back home, I needed to know if exhaust specialists can manufacture headers for a particular car, and would it be more cost effective for me to get that done? (Keeping in mind...

    Hey guys, I was wondering: back in March I had to replace my heads and was wondering that since I'm taking my car to the Middle East - where there are no/few GP's - if I have the same problem again, is it possible to get a local machine shop to machine or repair the heads, or is getting new...
