    Oil Pressure Gauge Hookup

    Because the idiot light oil pressure switch is also a secondary path for the fuel pump voltage. If the fuel pump relay were to fail the oil pressure switch will close at about 4psi and apply voltage to the fuel pump allowing the car to start. Matt

    Switching to Radio/CD Player

    Can you post a pic of the radio? I installed a early 90's factory CD player into my car but I had to use a wiring harness adapter. They are pretty cheap about $20 on flea-bay or check with Kirbans Matt

    Got a GNX style dash? Let's see em..

    That's a picture of my old dash. It's an applique that I had made, it was attached over just a clear plastic lense. I still have the applique if your interested. It does have one small break in the upper left corner where the idiot lights are. Probably not noticable when installed. Matt

    Re Wrap Steering Wheel

    I wonder if there is any chance the e-bay lady could add more padding to the wheel to make it fatter? Always thought our steering wheels were a little thin. Matt

    Those with VDO Electronic Speedos

    Had the mechanical one in my GNX style cluster go bad and now switching to an electronic one. :( What pulse per mile did you use when calibrating the speedo. I know the stock VSS is converting it to 2000 ppm for the ecm but what does the speedo need to be accurate? is it 1000 ppm ??? TIA Matt

    dvd gps player

    Not in a GN If this is for a GN / TType those won't fit without some serious modification to the car. Our cars use a DIN + 1/2 size where as the new cars use DBL DIN. Matt

    electrical oil gauge problem

    Did you use any teflon tape or thread sealer? VDO is very specific about not using any type of thread sealer, as the sender unit needs direct contact to the block for a good ground. Also make sure if you used a tee there is none on there either. HTH Matt

    Child car seats in GN's and TR's

    X2 Boosters are NOT supposed to be used with a lap belt only. I drive alot in Mass and the law there says anyone under 4'9" or under age 8 must be in a booster. Had a whole big discussion about a year ago with a State Trooper about this because one of my kids (the smaller one) has to ride up...

Somebody posted a "how to" for a different kind of Delco radio in the TurboTrans Am section but the internal wiring setup looks totally different than my CD radio.

    GnX spec wheels on gn

    TruDesign TruDesign did the wheels years ago, long before Brian started doing his. Just an FYI, mine aren't the GTA wheels, mine were made by Rikken. Looks real similar until you put the two next to each other and you will see the difference. Matt

    GnX spec wheels on gn

    Check out the pics in my gallery. Rears are 3 1/2" bs with 255/50/16 and front are 4 1/8" bs with 245/50/16. True GNX have -23 offset rears which i believe equates to about 3 7/16" bs and fronts are -15 which equates to about 3 15/16" bs. so mine are pretty close, alot closer than GTA wheels at...

    digital aux input on your Delco

    How about this one Gary. I know it can be done because there are guys selling modded ones on fleabay, but I would rather not buy another one as they are pricey. Got a couple of quotes to mod mine but I have to ship it to them blah, blah, blah...... I like to tinker with stuff myself :cool...
