And is it just me, or does anyone else like it when a car is a winter warrior in a picture? I think it makes a car look boss as F***.

SSC springs will come in the Summer with wheel spacers.

Why Spacers? because i love the look of the 04+ rims i have, but i hate the look of a lowered car with the wheels totally tucked in the fender. (stock offset). So ill be purchasing some spacers to bump the wheels out a tad.

How big of spacers you planning on running?

With me being a stock offset, ill need a decent size spacer. Thats for sure.

It's ok Dan, mine had a similar problem with the previous owner, I know this because the top and sides were epoxied back together. Its kinda ghetto but not THAT noticable, I just get a little OCD with parts sometimes so I notice. You can fix it good as new(ish)
 
Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

Or just not worry about it because those cupholders are about useless as **** anyway.
 
Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

Or i have a better plan.

Ill just a new cup holder unit. from ebay or the Junkyard sometime.

Problem solved.

On a good note, as of 1 hour ago, im also buying a HUD pod and new 3-pillar pod. Will be getting shipped out either tomorrow or saturday.
 


Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

You are going to love the HUD...I dealt with my spring broke for a minute and it was like learning how to drive again looking down at the speed....Totally spoiln with the readout right in eyesight.
I'm waiting for the header install and pulley.
Man that is going to be a new Black car.

I just need gauges to fill the HUD pod now.

Ill just rock the pod without gauges at the moment. Yeah, i went there.

Just wait until summer. Thats when the real fun begins with this car.

Im still kind of in a toss up about what gauges to fill the HUD pod with.

In my 3-pillar pod ill have Boost, Volts, and Aeroforce.

For the HUD pod ill have an AEM Wideband and i need one more... Thinking trans temp. Whats your suggestion?
 


Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

oops wrong HUD didn't realize they called the gauge clusters that

Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

Well a tranny temp one could be very useful! I didn't know if the older dics read tranny temp or nor

Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

No they dont.

I thought about oil pressure, but then once your gauge reads that you dont have any oil pressure... Well by that time its to late and your engine is toast. So basically pointless.

I think ill go with Tranny temp. For Sh1ts and giggles.
 
Re: 1997 Black GTP, Random/Off Topic Thought Thread v3

Sounds like a good choice for ur car. As I'm putting me about oil pressure one in
