        a car is a car! just because it's a pontiac doesn't mean it's gonna give u problems! just might not have a great rep like hondas but if u give the car the fluids and treat it right any car should not give u any problems! this reminds me, my mom wanted one of these grand prix gt's (4 door) back in the day

          Amen to that,
          I am treating the car right.
          Im done beating my vehicles.
          time to mature and treat them like they should be.
          Unless there being ran on the track.
          But im confident this is a good car.
          thanks alot chris!

            Just because your GP gave you issues does not mean anything.
            I know people who has no issues at all.
            For example my mom has had hers for 3 years and has had No issues.
            Its called taking care of a vehicle and not beating the piss out of it.
            just thought id set that straight for ya.

            But if you call making 300whp a waist of money.
            then okay......
            For everyone that you know that has no issues, other people can most likely name someone else who does have issues. It's inconclusive either way.

            And what fun is it to build a car, and then NOT beat the piss out of it? I beat the piss out of my cars, and they last cause they're built well. GM isn't on the top of the list for reliable motors.

            300whp wouldn't be a waste of money, but it could be better applied in a vehicle other than that one. Just my opinion.

              300hp in a gp is nothing...
              i know local regals that push more than that

              its a good looking ride
              first thing is debadge that bitch
              do somthing about that exhaust
              get rid of your engine cover it trap heat, and heat and intake manifold dont mix
              look into droping it, make sure you get pogo elimnators or it bounce like a motherfucker

              a pcm and a u bend delete will be your best freind..i recromend zzp
              this is best intake out there
              http://www.zzperformance.com/grand_p...=247&catid=113

              oh zoomer at zzp is a great guy

              have fun, it shld run mid to high 15s like that
              and prob low-mid 15s will the above mods i mentioned

              shit ive seen a gtp run high 13s with just an intake

              and fuck a top swap, do this
              it doesnt beat your transmission which is a weak mofo

                hoo yeah.. a top swap and that thing will haul donkey balls!

                not a bad car i can see big for my style but the power is there.

                one of my buddy have a 95 bonnieville ssei. the explaned to me that the older modles have a more torquier engine but not as hihg hp. but the newers one put out more hp tho. he had his supercharger rebuilt and i think smaller pulley and no govener. sucker can do 13's no probelm said he have tractions issues lol.

                debage it and put some good 18's and a drop. total sleeper there.


                btw do you know the gas mileage you get as of right now? just wondering what those cars get. i'm guessing low 20's?

                  i got 17mpg in town with mine
                  a 1995 bonneville ssei made 200hp, the same as a n/a 3.8s2 which is what he has

                  a s2 supercharged motor, or l67 makes 240hp

                  meaning your buddy as stuck alot more money in his 95, than a l67 guy to go 13's

                        its his car guys let him do what he wants with it.

                        I back them up on the reliability though, they were rated one of the least reliable cars on the road.

                        Im not dissing your car by any means so hope you have fun it and with it.

                        Oh and I am an AVID pontiac fan. I am part of a pontiac club that is nationwide. Except my pontiac passion is on the firebird!

                          Sweet ride! I always liked the coupes.

                          Is that an auto or manual? I could never tell with the Pontiac/Chevy shifter gators.

                          Not everybody is going to like the car but I wish some of you would open up your minds to whats out there.

                          The world doesn't end with Honda, REAL car people can appreciate the pro's and the cons of every car.
