• 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 new DD

Nice daytona! I say buy speed daddy headers off ebay and you should be able to keep that 3.4. Speed daddy's are like 200 shipped.
 


Thanks man! what headers fit best? I see the pacesetters are the pricier ones on ebay. im not even sure ill like the sound of a v6 with headers

Totally right ^ you can't go wrong with a pretty good set of headers for $200 shipped to your door, probably the best $200 you can spend for your car
 
fit best? then you're going to have to spend some money.

TOG's or ZZP's.

SSAC's have the gooseneck and inconsistent quality.

Pacesetters are just plain fun....

Pacesetter rip offs are terrible.

WBS have some unsorted issues.
 
You say you dont even want to mod this car, I must say a stock GTP is pretty fast and I have no complaints, but you should at least go to a 3.4 and give yourself a nice amount of more power under the hood. SD Headers $200, AL104 Spark plugs $72, Tuned PCM (from 3800 Performance) $125, 3.4in Pulley about $70. Total of $470 and you have yourself a pretty quick GTP with relatively low money.
 
egh.. I dont know if I want to deal with the headache of major exhaust leaks if $200 headers dont fit well. Ive had exhaust leaks with $1100 headers and thats been a headache. I already have a 3.4 pulley and CAI installed but i think my best option is going back to stock. Ill save the parts in case I change my mind later or just sell them.
 


I appreciate your input and everyone elses. Thats what the forums are for. Helped me make a decision. Thanks everybody, now time to enjoy the GTP!
 
Only issues I have with the SD headers was getting the rear one in lol and the damn ubend they have, I put mine on in August and I put a hole in the ubend already. Its a small hole but its still a hole.

Lol had the same problem getting the back ones in. Specially since mine were meant for the 97-03 bodystyle we had to modify the front ones a lil. Not bad tho. Very beneficial for 200 dollars. Went from almost 8 kr to basically none

Nice car.

I run SD headers without cat and with stock catback. Sound is actually a good imrovement.
 


Nice looking car, not crazy about the flag on the side but it's ok, loss the mods, my stock GTP just seems to get faster with age, also you should get a nice set of rims and then you are set. :th_biggrin2:
 
UPDATE!!!

The purple tint had been driving me nuts so last week on my way back from work I started picking at it. I got home and I ripped it off. Took me 3 hrs to clean it all up since i didnt use a heat gun. Next day I realized how :th_thumb-down: it looked without any tint so I went and got it re-tinted 5% all around.
I had the 19" wheels but I kind of dislike chrome so I wanted to see how they looked black. I plasti dipped them but left the lip chrome for a little contrast. I think they look great! If it doesnt hold up Im getting them painted. Next day I painted all the calipers blue with 500 degree engine paint and installed the wheels. I installed some newer taillights I picked up from the junkyard since the others the winter sort of got the best of them. I hit them up with some rubbing compound and they look new!!! Next on the list is black housing headlights with clear corners and 6000k HIDs headlights and fogs. Heres some pics. It finally feels mine now that I did some mods :D
