pretty sure i'm going to need another engine for my 02 GTP...*(240,000 miles) white smoke pouring out the exhaust* anyone know of a price range for repairs and labor?!? FML:th_nervous:
 


Try all the Junkyards down on South Congress near Slaughter Ln(south Austin). If they don't have a decent motor, go to South Austin machine shop(if still open) and hit them up. Can also look on Craigslist. I saw two adds for GTP part outs about a week ago, one of them was a black GTP in Austin. There is hope for your GTP, just have to know where to look. Also try Budget Wrench Apart in Del Valle near ABIAP.
 
thanks alot guys! especially Tx tanker! i'm talking with Patriot motors (off manor rd)...they're sayin 1300.00 for a rebuilt w/SC under 100,000 mi sound good?!? :confused:
 
Is $1300 just for the motor or installed?

Your saying Manor road, you must be in North Austin near Burnet/183.

Not familiar with North Austin, I am a South Austinite LOL.
 


the main thing you want is an engine that has great compression. Miles you can't verifiy but compression can be. That is what you should be looking for an engine with about 180 across the board and a new lower engine mount will help. I spent in total to replace mine aboout 500 in just little extras that make the differance in how it runs.
 


LMAO! Welp looks like ive got some shoppin around to do...the 1300 was engine only...im up in georgetown, tx (aka friggin waco) lol
 
Nope, havent checked them out yet...but will be doing so, im all about convience though, i'll spend a lil more to get one from a closer location...already have a damn good mechanic.
