• 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.

My Ride
I've been on this site using for quite awhile now. Figured it’s time to start a, my ride page. It’s a 2006 Grand Prix GXP with 5.3L LS4 FWD. No major mods as of yet except for a custom CAI I made and a flipped dog bone mount. It has 46, xxx miles on it right now and I bought it with 42xxx miles. I've not had any major problems out of it…yet that is. I have added two extra transmission coolers for the tranny and it keeps temperatures way cooler. I changed all the lights on interior to red and also added extra internal red lights. They are way brighter than the stock interior lighting. The car has been debadged on the rear. I've installed a shift kit from TEP and make a huge difference. Coming up after holidays is a custom fabricated exhaust from random exhaust shop . I have been talking to another member about getting a custom tune done after I put the DP on. I want to get the DOD removed as well with that tune. My car doesn’t burn oil yet like most LS4’s do but that doesn’t mean it won’t start.
So now for some pictures.
some of these where taken the day i purchased it before i drove it off the lot. i blacked out the dealership stuff cause i will never buy there again and do not wish to advertise for such a shi**y dealer

Re: My 06 GP GXP

i think it looks great. i need to take a new video since ive made it better. i used florescent light cover and cut it to shape so you can't see the tin and aluminum in the back. looks alot better now
 
Re: My 06 GP GXP

Good looking car man.

But i have to ask, what the hell is that last video on here?

It looks like a horse in the back seat of an SUV.

Kinda creepy actually. I was a tad sketched out LOL
 
Re: My 06 GP GXP

it was a horse in the back seat...i taped it when i was on highway and it looked freaky as he*l

Super Slinky color...I like the rims like that..paint the calipers silver or color match the car,the red doesn't really fit.

Don't you feel the need for some low springs....I'm thinkin you do;)

Re: My 06 GP GXP

ive thought about lowering it but i have other things i wanna do first. like my Headers as soon as they get released, plasti dip rims black. full exhaust remake over. theres a list up in the first post i made
 
Re: My 06 GP GXP

i kinda planned to. here near the end of the month the cars gonna be sitting for a few weeks while i do some things to it. tax money!!!
 


Re: My 06 GP GXP

Uhh yeah, i watched that video about 5 times until i figured it out.

Once i actually got it, it kinda freaked me out, it actually freaked me out alot.
 
Technically there's no benefit but appearance. Handling on a GXP won't change much from it either ;)

Edit: I also can't wait for possibly cheaper headers :D the Doug Thorley headers are so expensive :banghead:
 
Re: My 06 GP GXP

Car looks sharp with that color, nice choice. I needs some 98 degree right now. Got some stuff I need to do to the car and this 30 degree weather blows donkey balls. Why are you sending the injectors off?
 
Re: My 06 GP GXP

i just am. im gonna be doing exhaust and all and painting a few things and im taking them out anyways so i figured why not
 


Re: My 06 GP GXP

Mr. injector does bench flow texting when he gets them then takes em apart rerplaces all seals and the little filter in em and does a sonic cleaning thing and pretty much makes them brand new without the costs of new ones
