• 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.

What did you do to your Car today?

one of the down falls of the open cone. mine has fallen off a few times. changed the clamps and it stays put now. aka hose clamps from the parts store, not home depot clamps from the fitting you bought.
 
Mine fell off once, never fell out of the bumper, thank god. I just bought so parts store clamps and used a ratchet to snug them down. Never a problem since...knock on wood.
 




Replaced my ignition switch after school today. Took me an hour and a half, not too bad. All gm columns come apart the same way lol. I now have a functioning blower motor again, feels good to be warm.

Also realized my right rear window isn't going down.....Dims the lights but doesn't move, didn't look into it any further.
 
i put my snapshot thing into my g6..its a sad day that i have to drive like a grandma to get money back. being 21, insurance with comprehensive for all the deer in mn was about 900$.

Time to drive my gp some more.

Well no wonder you car seems so slow. I kid, we're still N/A.

I'm seriously going to start getting prices for a complete L67 with everything on it. Supercharger, all pullies, icm, TB, etc. I'm assuming around $450 ish depending on miles, looking for under 120k. You just need that, swap the L36 flex plate on it, and swap the engine. Then order a cannned pcm for the purpose($200?) (l67 with 3.29's) and bam I can go s/c in a days time.(or maybe I can send a pcm to a member here to just swap l67 tables in for a bit cheaper. I can do the junkyard trick, pull an airbox and pay for an airbox. Ohh what's inside? a pcm lol) Hopefully all for under a grand, I'll be happy. Of course who knows if that used motor needs gaskets, if so add $200. If I can get all quotes, I'd be up for it. Good thing I really haven't put much money into my engine, just vc gaskets and elbows. Oh but my trans....yeah it will surely die if I get a lead foot with an L67. The mechanical internals are healthy I'm sure, it's the pressure issues that would kill it. I should order a professionally remaned/upgraded valve body from tep. Welp that's over a grand now...worth it.

Finally got some pics of my retro's output. They looks like the angle down on both sides after about 10 feet, but no matter what I do it happens. I'm not worried about it. They're straight where it counts. From the pics it looks like I could bring them up a bit if I wanted. I'm happy where they're at now, but I might bring them up if I'm bored some day.

She can be sexy though...

I think dsmuts will have a blown l67 here soon i think if you wanted to top swap over motor swap. I just need to get my hv3 in and do a 2.5" or ubend delete and I'll be happy. I figure if i want a SC car I'll get a Regal or a bonnieville
 
Felt the ABS pulsating on the drive home. Stopped at the store to grab something, let the ABS go crazy, now the ABS and TRAC lights stay on. Good thing it is supposed to rain for the next 2-3 days so I can't look at it. :th_depressed:
 
Russo the u-bend delete helps noticeably, you will like that.

So is this thread about to break the forum? Its pretty big.

My GTP has not had any more episodes of dropping out of first on quick stops but haven't driven it too much since it first did. The new battery made a diff though. Had a valuecraft from when I got the car in it, I put a juicy 78 series Super Start in it and BAM she cold starts before you can back off the key. No idea how old the other bat was but I zapped it leaving lights on. Thats a hazard of the disabled chime I reckon. Actually went to buy a dash cam today but ended up not. Soon.
