Post by heavywoody »

After working hard this week to finish getting things buttoned up on the GTP before we head up to MI for the wedding, I finally got everything situated for the most part, and here are some pics.

Washed, claybared, waxed, treated the leather, cleaned the piss outta the engine bay, got floormats, added the front license plate cover (was missing when bought), fixed the exhaust sag, and fixed a couple rattles on the inside. The only thing I need to get now to make me happy is the postive terminal post cover that attaches to the fuse box cover, and I still need to remove the "3" and "6" in yellow from the top coilpack.

I did make money on the deal... got about $700 more than what the Scion was valued at... and it was purchased 11/11/06.

You beat me.  I got my GP GT the 13th.  

That GTP is in a whole nother league than the scion.

Oh yeah... when Cliffy came up for our wedding, we put a K&N Air Intake (the one with the metal housing) on, and man did it liven up the sound of the SC. I love it and now my gas mileage suffers because of having to hear that SC whine

How long before the wife was like "What's wrong with the car" or rather "What did you do to the car" with the new-found supercharger whine.

Eh, gimme time. I want to get a 3.4, but I want to make sure I have no KR to worry about too. I might wait a bit to do a pulley swap. First things first: SLP swaybars, new control arms, better rear trailing arms. Then it's time to save for other goodies...

But I really want to get my Z down here and running properly before I start putting stuff into the GTP. I'm relatively happy with how the Z is mods wise, but I need to get it running properly, so yeah.

I haven't been on here in ages, Great choice Geoff, I have about $1400 in the mods on my GTP, with whats in my Sig. I did everthing you see there, then in installed a 3.4" pulley. I have no KR issues, and that car is a missle.  The best part for me is that unlike my old 3800 Firebird the cops don't even notice me....
