• 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.

finally finished all my upgrades

Well like the title says. I've had my 03 gtp since nov. 08. So about 6 months. When I bought it it was bone stock inside and out all the way down to the paper filter. Since then I've traded my stock 16s for 18s, scuffed them down to bare metal and painted them black. I put a supercharged decal on my upper windshield. Traded my black grille pieces for brushed alluminum ones. Bought new headlights and got clear corners with clear turn bulbs. Then I've got a 3" dp without cat,brand new gtx exhaust tips that look awesome. I got a cai kit for cheap off of craigslist. Bought a tb spacer and 180 tstat. The stat works well amd was a good upgrade. I bought my pcm from bluegtp91 or nick which helped a ton. And I've got a 3.4 pulley with gatorback belt. I just put my 8.5 mm wires and autolite colder plugs in the other day. I have a plog for the car just haven't put it on yet. But I guess I'm sayin I love this car and its been good to me ever since I bought it. It seems like every power upgrade I do gives me friggin 20 horsepower lol! I'm gona try and post pics up if I can. Everyone on here has been great also. Lots of good advice. Grand prixs rule
 


i can say the only place you wasted money was a throttle body spacer.

feels good though, eh? its fun having a nice running car.
 
Yup...you'll find something else to do...I say lower it!! :D

And I LOL'ed at the 20hp comment...did the T-Stat give you like 10 RWHP?!! LMAO!! :p
 
Well not every upgrade I guess! Lol! I'm always gonna fins something to do to it. Still wanna do plenty. Just wanted to update everyone on how my car was going. Still need a hood. And yeah I wanna lower it bad actually
 


what are you waiting for with the plog? that is incredibly simple to install and will be a excellent addition to your list
 
i really wish i can start to upgrade mine but the thing keeps breaking before i get the chance. i do use upgraded parts with every repair so i guess its improving just wish i can pick what gets done in what order. damn car is a nazi

I always wanna do more to my car. Still want a hood and I def. wanna lower it. R u kiddin! Tstats give u at least 10 hp! Lol! The tb spacer did nothing for my car. But oh well
 


Well at least 20hp! Lol! Eh I like it. Not totally done though. Thinkin about lowerin it and I'm puttin that plog on sometime this week. There's always somethin I wanna do
 
Yup I know how it is. But I love my car and its come a long way since I first got it. Do u guys think lowering it would cost that much?
 
Eibach springs cost me i think 250, camber kits run 20/each from the parts store (i got four for $20 in the classifieds section). New struts cost me 100/each for the KYB AGX adjustable ones. Dont forget to tack on the cost of a four wheel alignment.
 
Nananana I get free alignments lol Afterhours at the stealership since friends work there FTW!! I got Springtech's brand new for $160 shipped to my front door. They are from Tokico shocks, Eibach Springs, Springtech Suspension, and Lift Kits At Competitive Prices

You just have to email them as they still sell them, they are just not on the site anymore.

Springs:

No Springs, granted I have Bullitt's on in this pic, but you can still see the huge gap difference in the wheel well:
