    aftermarket stereo install

    Its not going to be a bling system with a custom fiberglass sub box and all, just a basic system that I hope will fill my need for some headbanging!

    Question for those that upgraded to SRT seats

    Things will be a little tighter with the Gen 3 seats Mike. I have them in my 01 GTS, which has custom mounts from Northwood I believe. Getting in and out is a bit harder because of the tighter clearances, but they do feel much better than Gen 2 seats once you are in. I can drive for a few...

    aftermarket stereo install

    I have searched for a few hours, and cannot find my answer. Trying to figure out how to wire the amp DIN connector from the factory amp to my new Kenwood head unit. I have sliced the DIN, see the seperate wires, now where the hell do I run them to??? Do I use the speaker wires from the new...

    So I pulled the cats and my car now sounds like crap, what should I do

    I have factory manifolds, no cats, and Bellanger exhaust and I love it. Sounds like a Lambo, nothing like my Gen 1 did.

    18/19" Wheel Combo on Gen1 RT - Will it work?

    We have the same taste Eddie! I was thinking the 6 spokes or some CCW SP600's would have looked great on the car, but I didn't want to spend the extra money knowing I was selling the car. I want to see pics when you get them installed:) martyb

    Stock Exhaust Manifold Question

    I just put together a few extensions to get that 2' distance and went right at the bolts. Be sure to soak them for a while, makes it much easier. I think there is a donut in there, probably not a bad idea to replace them while you are in there. Good luck!

    Stock Exhaust Manifold Question

    The metal strips and nuts were one piece on my car, and the collector was not threaded. The strips keep the nuts from spinning when tightening or loosening the bolts. Soak in penetrating oil before removing them and you should be fine. I just used a LONG extension on my 3/8 drive and it was...

    Paint on brake booster- 01 GTS

    How difficult is it to remove the booster?? Haven't really looked at it yet, but that seems to be the correct way to do the job.

    Paint on brake booster- 01 GTS

    The finish on the brake booster on my car is not good, and I am going to prep and paint it. Any idea on the color? It almost looks like a semigloss black??? martyb

    Help w/ finding a mechanic

    Do it yourself, its not that difficult of a job. Take your time and document everything and you will save some money. The gaskets are crazy expensive though.

    Night out in the new GTS

    The parking lot was not level, and the camera was my garbage phone camera. I assure you its not the car. I have had it out every night for the past 7 nights Manoj, loving it. I have to say its a bitch to keep the dust off, and the darker color really shows it. I have several coats of...

    1st oil change on the RT - story

    Looking good Eddie, nice job and write up!! I should have used a brass "T" when I put that system together.

    1st oil change on the RT - story

    Eddie, Did the old filter gasket come off with the old filter? I did this once a long time ago on my vette, same story, and the old gasket stuck on the pump, thus I had two gaskets smashed together which doesn't work well! At least you caught it early, no harm other than the mess on the...
