About this Current Vehicle:

I bought my gtp in 1999. From the moment i picked it up i started racing it. Since then it has become a fun/nice day car that i love to push the limits of. Most say it moves out pretty good for a little v6.

Vehicle Journal:

Sep 27

floor is finished

Finished the floor up on sunday. Let it dry for a few days and then i installed some of the interior today after work.


Sep 22

1st coat of bed liner.

today i shot 2/3rds of the floor pan with the first coat of spray in bed liner. Whats nice about the floor pan is that its sectioned off so you can do one block at a time. I have a bit of a wire mess under my center console from my wideband controler, egt probes, fan switch, electric cutout an so on. It basicly had one thing added after the next and got out of control. so i have to move it around as i shoot the floor. i will be redoing just as soon as the carpet is back in.


Sep 13

more floor pan work

today i picked up some rhino-liner spray in bed liner. i will be spraying the entire floor pan up to the trunk opening with this stuff. I then will reinstall the carpet and the rest of the interior back into the car. The trunk will be done at later time because i still need to do some welding and bracket fabbing back there for some things in the car.

Factory Options:

GTP package which added a supercharged 3.8 v6 and 4t65e hd transaxle, Heads up display, leather, heated seats, power windows,door locks, spoiler style moonroof, rear spoiler, high polished wheels, ac, 8 speaker am/fm cd with eq, steering wheel radio controls, pass through rear seat, leather wrapped steering wheel and gearshift.

Interior Modifications:

it kind of looks like a fighter plane with all the gauges.

eibach lowering springs and the gm performance parts suspension kit, adjustable struts, custom built bump stop kit, wedge kit, thrust rod kit.

More stuff is in the works.

Electronics:

stereo stuff is heavy so that means none other then some up graded speakers that fit in the stock locations.

To-Do List:

To long to list. i decided to pull the motor and redo the whole setup.

Nice looking hood. Looks like you're moving along nicely with your project. I'll be lurking around trying to figure out what else will go under that hood. Smile
