    Whats ideal stock cyl pressure

    I did a leak down and dry/wet test on my stock motor with 165K. Are these numbers normal? Seems low but evidently the l67 is considerably less then the l32 due to one point less compression. Reason I ask is my #2 cyl seems to have an oil control issue. The plug with 5k miles had considerable...

    Fixing my oil dredger

    Well pretty sure my 3.8 is leaking oil from every possible seal/gasket. I'm hoping to get some tips and suggestions on gasket brands (namely Felpro/Delco) and any other parts I should consider replacing while I'm in there or tools to make said job easier. From what I can tell, my valve cover...

    Gloss or matte black

    Trying to decide between gloss and matte saleens. Im leaning toward gloss, but kinda like matte. Anyone have any suggestions? Is matte hard to keep dull with tire dressing? Will it scratch easy, by that I mean surface scratches that Iook dark or glossy? Does it stain easy?

    Adding TC to 97 GTP

    Is it feasible to add traction control, or even worth it? Im looking for out of the hole improvement or would it actually hinder 0-60 compared to a good foot?

    Lazy early shifts

    Not so much a tuning question, but a pcm question nonetheless...The other day my sub box slid back from an aggressive dwnshift that tore out my pwr cable (0awg) from my amp. It was a 3rd-1st-3rd WOT, and when it shifted up to 3rd it was quite firm, almost a slam... Ever since its been upshifting...

    Which HID projectors do I chose?

    Im looking for HID projectors for my 97, specifically black/smoked (non bling). There seems to be many brands but only two styles. The two styles I've found are; http://m.ebay.com/itm/301064765514?cmd=VIDESC These look to be better quality, but I don't care for the led and reflective "halos"...

    Premature coupler wear

    I replaced my coupler about 2yrs ago (8k miles) and already its sounds wore out. S/C has 142k on it, all stock, so I doubt its the rotors/bearings. Everything seemed tight when I had the snout off last. It sounds like a coupler, only audible at idle. The replacement was a Dorman, is there a...

    97 GTP wheel/tire/susp (255/45/18?)

    Hey guys, looking to run 18x9 Saleen's with +30 (I know, played out). Curious what my*max*tire*size*would be with SSC springs and rolled fenders. Im hoping 255/45 BFG g-force super comp-2 will clear. According to bfg, on a 8.5 wheel they measure 27" w/ a section width of 10". I'd really like to...

    Seeking leagal advice in an accident/hit&run

    Will the insurance appraise it as retail or private party? I was using the mobile kbb and didn't see retail until the end. Retail my car (97 2dr gtp pwr lthr prem snd 150k lthr) books for 3950. Edmunds > 3250 _ Nada > 3750. That's a relief.... Oh my god is it a relief!!! I just might not lose...

    Seeking leagal advice in an accident/hit&run

    Need some advice from you guys... Sadly (much emphasis) I was cut off / blind sided in my apt parking lot. The garages in my apt complex are really long. There's these "alley" sections between the garages so you don't have to drive all the way around. Well just as Im about to approach/pass the...

    97 GTP oddities

    I've had my stock 97 2dr GTP for almost 2yrs. Im at the point where Im trying to decide if I keep her. If I keep it, I plan to get it repainted, throw on some 18's, and then start motor/suspension mods. My goal is a 12sec DD, but b4 I start I need to know if a 97 is worth it? I know the 97 is a...
