• 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.

    Top Swap Bin

    So I finally got around to top swapping my gp, but I couldn't get it to run with a stock supercharged tune. Not sure if that's normal. Turns out a stock na tune actually runs, but I imagine this will cause issues if I try to limp it to my tuner, plus with no bypass valve in the tune, I have no...

    Upgrade Advice

    Alright, so I've slowly been amassing parts and I think it's about that time to start on the top-swap! Before I get started on that though, I want to make sure my transmission is up to the task... It was rebuilt (by me) to stock specs L36 na 4t65e + shift kit + lube tube retainer (I replaced...

    Wiring Harness Routing GXP

    Got a friend with a GXP that is having trouble remembering how the wiring harness routing goes. Anyone have pictures or could help me explain the routing? Thanks in advance!

    WTB Camshaft/pushrods/accessories (need advice)

    Well, I've finally got the permission from the wife to finish up my upgrades and topswap while the engine is out! I know it's a long shot, but figured I'd see if anyone had any used parts for sale before I go ahead and spend the money for new. Other part of this post is that I'm not 100% sure...

    F-Body/L26 fusion?

    *Note* please see question at end! I need advice! While at the junkyard, I had a crazy thought. I've heard a few people say the lower intake for the f- Body flows really well, but the upper stinks. I've also seen the gains made by having a larger plenum and short runners especially with...

    Cooling system question

    Done a couple of light mods on my 02 n/a grand prix, and recently it's started to get up towards 220 on long drives when it's over 90+ degrees out. I've double checked there's no air and it's not losing coolant. I've replaced almost everything in this car including the radiator, water pump...

    Spyder Headlight Mounting Tab Help

    Hey everybody! I remember some thread about this before the shift in forums, but I can't seem to find it anywhere! I've got a set of used spyder headlights I'm retrofitting and both of them have broken mounting tabs. I'm thinking maybe epoxy some sheet metal folded over the sides, but I don't...

    Slipping issue/ rebuild?

    Just bought a 2003 aztek for $400 with a bad transmission. It was rebuilt by certified transmissions three years ago and it will upshift fine, but once you remove your foot from the gas, it completely disengages like it's in neutral. Once you come to a stop, it will engage again until you let...

    Spyder Headlight Retrofit/Redesign

    Never thought I'd find these in the junkyard! Thanks to row52.com I got a notification on my phone of a grand prix in my local pick-n-pull with a front picture and saw these, so I rushed over there and fortunately was the first one to grab them! I noticed that either a factory uv coating...

    Wstefan20's First Fiero Build and Help Thread

    Well, my dreams finally came true! I found a 1984 Pontiac Fiero SE! For those of you who don't know, the 84 SEs came usually as automatic L4 Iron dukes. Meh. My dream is to swap for something more substantial down the road, but this is what I'm working with right now. History: The car...

    Case Learn Issue

    Hello, as most of you know, I just picked up a hptuner pro. Unfortunately I have not been successful even after watching video tutorials and posts on hp tuner's forum and self help, so I hoped someone here could shed some light on the matter. The car has been brought to operating temperature...

    Northstar throttle body w/ lq4 n/a

    Alright, so to preface, yes I know n/a won't take advantage of this swap at all, but I'm kind of slowly piecing together my turbo setup, and just got ahold of all the parts I need, so I want to do the swap now rather than wait. Problem is, everyone has tunes and examples for L67, but I can't...

    The PCV Thread

    Alright, so I've been on a quest to add a catch can to my system and that has lead me to quite a few discoveries and realizations. Basically, I'm starting this thread to not only show how to design a pcv system, but also to help further the understanding of our pcv system and pcv systems in...

    02 GP Remote Start/Security System

    I'll be building this thread as I find time, and I welcome any comments or criticism. I will be referencing specifically the CM7000 series remote start/security system by Compustar along with the idatalink Blade-AL immobilizer bypass module, however, the pinouts listed in this guide should...

    DIY Smoke Machine for Vacuum Leaks

    I'll start by being the first to admit, this is not my idea although I may have put my personal touch on a few items. I mainly just want to share this build and hopefully help someone out along the way. If anyone is curious, just google the subject and you'll find my sources in the first few...
