• 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.

Let's just rename this PurpleGuy's GTO tuning endeavor

Ill buy it off you when you decide you don't want to do it anymore.
 


Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Yea. It's going to be Purpletrator reborn.

Been an awful lot of guests watching this thread today...hmmm.
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

I've seen that car... Was something special. That's for sure.
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Just out of curiosity but did you ever do your LEDs in the cluster with the 6LE gauges? Also do you remember where you got the sound deadener?
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

I haven't yet no. I still plan to. I also need to pull the overlay back off and put some foam around all of the boxes inside to keep the light from bleeding out. I wasn't aware that'd happen when I put it in. So when I use like the blinkers some of the cluster lights up lol.

The stuff in the doors and trunk is Second Skin and the stuff on the floor/rear deck is Peel n Seal from Lowes
 


Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Yeah the bleeding effect is common over on the ls1tech with those that bought them from 6LE.

I'm kicking around the idea of sound deadening mine over the winter break from my job. I will have 2 weeks off so I am not sure what to go with.
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Honestly that Peal N Seal stuff works pretty good. I just wouldn't use it on any vertical surfaces cause it doesn't stick as good as something like the SS does. SS is about half the price of Dynomat BTW.
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Guz have you seen a fix for the cluster bleed? Anyone done the foam like I want to?
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

I haven't seen anything. I have seen that it is pretty common with 6LE gauges. Foam may be an option.
 
Re: "Project" PRPLHAZ What's that? An update? Psh, like ya...

(4/29/11)
So I've been installing some Second Skin Damplifier Pro. Right now I have most of the trunk, all of the driver door, and all of the passenger rear done. Ive used about 16-17 sheets that are 12"X20". I should have just enough left to do the passenger door and driver side rear. I ordered 36 Sq ft. Onto the pixies...

Something to note is holy crap this is time consuming. Took over an hour i'd say to do this first piece on the door. Luckily the doors are symmetrical and I can flip the piece over to trace it on another piece as a template.

Door...pictures are in order of how I did them...

What not to do when you take the door panel off. Break all 13 push pins.

Where not to drop a wingnut for the tail lights.

What does this actually do for the car, I never seen or heard of this before.

Also, your ride looks sweet!
 


Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

It dampens vibrations and keeps new noises/rattles from appearing. Helps with sound deadening some but that's not it's main purpose. They make specific noise dampeners for that. Which I may end up getting. Who knows.


And thanks. It'll look better again once I drop it, hopefully on bags
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

LED's for the cluster. HP3's from Diode Dynamics. Supposed to have really good light dispersion. We'll see how they do.



 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Oh good.

Send me pictures.

I'd like to do this in the GXP but god knows anything about that cluster.
 
Re: The Purple Car Stock pulley bidness on pg 37

Well..idk anything about the 04+ clusters but i'm sure the bulbs are replaceable just like the 97-03's. All it is is talking the incandescent bulbs out and putting LED's in them.
