• 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.

    Any FBod folks here?

    I'm trying to get goin on initial research on swapping my open diff from my RWD L36 to a LSD. Anyone out there know what they're talking about with rear ends?

    Power steering pump or bad rack and pinon?

    I really don't want this whining to be a bad rack and pinon unit, so I'm hoping that the noise that's identical to a bad hydraulic pump really is a bad hydraulic pump. How can I tell for sure? When the RPMs drop, the steering gets more and more difficult. Steering gets easier with even idle...

    Looking for a little input on hubs and CV shafts noises.

    I replaced my hubs not too long ago (within the past few months) with Moogs, right? While doing that job, I noticed my CV boots were torn and that there was grease slung everywhere. Cool, that's a job I KNOW I need to do, and am now getting ready to do it. Over the past week or two, my car's...

    Spyder Halo Headlight question

    Yeah, I have the first-gen LED projectors. I hate how the capsules aren't sealed very well, and the hot glue wears off quite quickly. The plastic is really flimsy and gets brittle really quick, thus prone to breaking from bounce and heat cycling. I used vinyl tubing from Home Depot to solve the...

    Any experience with Anzo headlights or projectors?

    \\\EDIT:/// After looking around, Jegs said that Anzo is a good brand. I'm looking at either the capsules: ANZO USA | PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 97-03 H.L w/ CORNER LIGHTS BLACK AMBER or their projectors: ANZO USA | PONTIAC GRAND PRIX 97-03 PROJECTOR 2 HALOS HEADLIGHTS BLACK CLEAR AMBER w/ CORNER...

    HVAC has no blower on 5. MAX doesn't change fan speed.

    Sorry if this is in the wrong forum, I couldn't see if there was a place for HVAC questions. I also noticed that the air seems to be coming out of the dash, vents, and floors. Any thoughts, yall? I'm throwing no HVAC-related codes at all. Thanks for your time and help.

    Billet topside engine mounts?

    Yeah, big surprise, I snapped both engine mounts up top of the engine. I'm about tired of replacing those weak aluminum pieces. Does anyone know if there's a fabricator out there that makes stronger mounts? I'm not looking for dogbones, those are looking just fine.

    oscillating RPMs

    Last night I removed my TB and cleaned that massive buildup of carbon. At the same time, I replaced the MAF. I was hoping that the surging/lugging and oscillating RPMs would be cured...only to be disappointed. What else should I be looking at? I'm also getting really horrible MPG to the tune of...

    Feedback on ZZP A-Arms

    So, I've been drooling over these things for years and am finally able to get a set. Any experience? Are they worth the time and money? Should I replace the ball joints and bushings and call it good? Thanks, yall!

    Excel MAF Worksheet ***RESOLVED***

    So no ****, there I was: trying to get my MAF tuned again today, right? I go and plug some stuff into the MAF Worksheet that I have saved, right? That's when I noticed the Old and New Data were identical. I went to the Calculations tab and saw that the cells had no values in them, they had odd...

    darn chat limits!

    I hit the max # of chat msgs for the day. Thanks for the condolences, Ryan. At the time, it was pretty rough, but I'm doing much better now. Especially since I get to do this project in his honor.

    Anyone RECENTLY purchase Spyder/Sonar projectors?

    I'm in the market soon for a new set of CCFL projector headlights, and it seems that the only capsules that don't look gay are Sonar lights that were imported by Spyder. I have a set of the first generation lights on my car right now and can't STAND them. Adjustment is a PITA, headlight bounce...

    Yep. A FNG

    Thanks to 03GTPLE for telling me about this place. I've had this car for about 8 years now and have been VERY slowly modding it since 08. So far, I've installed what it says below in my sig. What all I call a full suspension is as such: GR2 shocks and struts GTP springs KYB and MOOG strut...
