• 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.

    Best site or service for IDing pinouts on wiring harnesses

    I've been finding some pretty awesome head units and such in the junkyards over the last couple summers, but to my surprise, even with thorough Google searching, I'm having trouble finding diagrams to identify what each wire is on the harnesses on the back of the units. Would anyone have any...

    Whatever happened to those Northern IL meets? (meet L, aka 50)

    Almost a year to the date since the last one. Sorry guys, got a whole lot of stuff going on right now, so I mega dropped the ball on these. However, we simply can't NOT have a 50th meet, so I'm back like Nsync. Since most of August is tied up for me, I'm thinking Saturday the 30th of July? This...

    Special/40th/Daytona 500 Edition Spoiler

I may have additional parts I will list as I come across them, but the parts I currently have ready to go are listed below (followed by pics). There are also some used and...

    Northern IL w-body meet XLIX (Herrick Lake, Wheaton): June 27

    We have set up another quick Herrick Lake cookout meet to try to make up for the weather not cooperating last month. For those of you that attended the last one of 2014, you may recall we tried a different approach to that one. Instead of everyone bringing something off the checklist to...

    Northern IL w-body meet XLVIII (Herrick Lake, Wheaton): May 30th

    April 24 2015 - Centennial of the Armenian Genocide

    Friday the 24th is the 100 year anniversary of the Armenian Genocide committed by the Ottoman Turks. As many of you know, I post about the genocide around this time every year. Being 100% Armenian, I feel obligated to do my very small part in trying to expose as many people as I can to this...

    '01 Grand Prix GTP Special Edition part out......sort of...

    So my '01 GTP Special Edition with 185k miles spun a bearing after the LIM gasket went on it (discovered this after the fact). I bought a replacement '00 GTP about 2 1/2 months ago, and the '01 has been sitting in my apartment parking lot ever since. I've started it a couple times since, so she...

    any known sources for factory pontiac wheels?

    Ah. That's why I was asking which wheels they are. The ones referred to as "torque stars" by the GP community are below, and were not available in chrome. Just silver and polished. The '04 & up 17" wheels you're talking about are usually referred to as "twisted" 5-spokes. They came in...

    Shopping for a "new" car. Seeking input/suggestions.

    I'll try to keep this as brief as possible. I don't really want to sink anymore money into my current GTP. It has 177k miles on the original motor, trans and s/c, every single body panel has a sizable dent/rust on it (neither front door opens all the way because they're catching the fenders)...

    Everything you ever wanted to know about auto dimming rear view mirrors

    You are correct, Slappyn. Just like any electronic mirror, there is only one +12V wire to power the auto-dimming, compass and temp, though in order for the temp to display properly, you will need to get a temp sensor (installed near the front bumper) and run 2 lines (pos and neg) to the mirror...
