I can't/won't drop it less than $8000 its private party sale price is about $9250

And I dont have the cash to pay the differance right now anyway.

Yeah thats what i'm kinda thinking too, but I don't know what to do. I really need the GTP gone but I haven' had any real activity abiut it. Like I said, I've got it for sale for $8200 on Craigslist, had it on Ebay, other car selling sites, Facebook etc... And had 2 calls that left a message asking ...

So I traded the 99SE in on a 05 Grand Prix GTP. Love the car but not the payments so my wife decided that we'll buy a smaller cheaper car and sell the GTP. So we bought a 00 Grand Am GT coupe. And still have the GTP for sale (since the begining of Sept) with no calls and a couple questions on ...

Here in WV we have safty inspection every year... brakes, horn, lights, rusted thru body panels. They also check for illegal window tint. Depending on where you go it's $12-15

OK my thought was get a PCM tune and shift kit. It be good to get/make a FWI also. right?

Right now I when I floor it "to pass a car" I get some lag and it seems to not wanna downshift right away. Like it downshifts one gear and then waits and shifts down again. I wanna know what I could do to get it to react faster?

I think I know the answer but I wanna hear it from you guys first.

Hmmm I'll have to try that.

What do you mean turn it off periodically? I turn it off before I get out, I usually don't leave it set on the A/C or MAX settings when I turn the car off. Or do you mean to drive the car without the A/C on a couple days a week?

I have had the kids in the car and it's been pretty hot and humid ...

I noticed a wet spot on the groubnd with the A/C on the other day.

If that makes sense.

I was sitting in the car waiting on my wife and leaned towards the window and the air coming from the vent smelled wet and kinda musty.
Do I need to do an Evap core cleaning? or is there a leak somewhere letting air/water into the system?

Oh I see... I figured they would have put it in the open to tell from a glance if it's boosted or not.

Just wondering?

It's supposed to firm your shifts some, But have them check it out because somehow my PCM got the wrong gear ratio. Mine started whining and just acting funny sometimes like it didin't know when to shift. (I thought my tranny was going and almost got it rebuilt) But when I got it scanned at Autozone ...

Ok but where do I get a S1 pulley from? (what is it called? Waterpump pulley or something else?)they don't have one listed on Autozone.com

I would keep walking on this car. It's 9 years old, I don't care how few miles it has. It's obvious the car hasn't been on the road very much and has probably only been driven for a couple of miles at a time, not enough to even warm up the engine.

Yes It has low miles, yes it sat more than it ...

Thanks for the advice CLM

What/where is the accessory bracket casting and what am I looking for?

And also what I'm I looking for with the timing cover?

Oops I forgot I was planing on changing the belt

Oh yeah I forgot about the thermostat.

I already have the prestone mix with anything coolant in there.

What else to change when I do the waterpump and tensioner.

Might as well get as much stuff changed that has coolant running through it right? What else is there?

I went to the place I had my Tracker fixed at since they did a great job...

I asked them for an estimate for touching up scratches and dings since I have no rust or dents. I do need the whole drivers door repainted though.

They told me $1700 for the whole car to get resprayed!

I also asked about ...
