Waxed the car with turtle waxs black box kit and it looks good, would recommend for making your black car to look awesome for a week or two.

Looks good until you drive it down the dirt road. I know that feeling.
 
Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Just sitting in the garage it was covered in dust/pollen in a few hours.

Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Well lets throw some repair failure updates

I failed to put the fuel filter on, only managed to get gas in my eye. That was fun.

Next up was flushing the coolant, I managed to bend a tstat housing bolt and tear the **** out of the threads so I had to retap the threads and buy a new bolt for it. Didn't even get the coolant flushed.

Also my windshield got cracked from a rock so thats on the list now.


In some good news, I bought a set of rhino ramps and they work flawlessly. Also I'm really happy of how clean my rockers are.

Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Not what Joshy says...

But anyways..looks like it needs lower mounts too, with dat 3800 engine lean.

Time to do some upgrade, upgrades...headers, HV3, tune it...?
 
Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Prob does need mounts they are stock might also explain my up to 10-12* of KR at WOT. I know NA motors can knock a lot tho.

Well per my luck has been going engine mods don't seem fun. But I would probably do a tune then a GTX clone with, GTX hood, gtx wheels, se spoiler, roof rails.

If I had to do engine stuff I would probably do cam, hv3, headers which makesna good base if I ever were to top swap.

I don't stalk josh, I just tried to add him cuz he was cool from the detriot meet.

He's not cool.

:)

HV3 is super easy.

Do a PLOG, and get a U-Bend/Cat delete...or just a 3" downpipe. Either way...when I had my Silver GT...I had an L26 UIM/Ported L67 TB/GTP Injectors/Ported LIM & Runners/DIY HV3/Ported Manifolds/U-bend delete/3" catback from my blue car...poly mounts/180*...and I'm sure I'm missing something...but it ran door to door with a GTP with an intake all the way to the top of the L67's 2nd gear...so what, 80ish? Not bad for something running assloads of timing and lean as hell.
 
Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Thats awesome def will take that I to concideration.

If I do a cam ever i want something thats a big lopey cam, for all the idle sounds.

Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

The one downside to a cam is even though it sounds good at idle, on these cars they still sound like **** accelerating lol.
 
Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

Oh well stock catback ftw,

idk iv said it but.

If I have to get another car its going to be probably a Bonnie SSEI or GXP. Unless I came across a rustless GTP.

Re: Russdinoguy's 02 GT "Slowkar"

You don't want a GXP.

Unless you find one with either...

A) No miles on it
B) Have funds to build a transmission within a week of ownership
