    Gbodyparts GNX wheels final images with 19X9.5" rear / 18X9" front

    This is the look that I prefer and recommend. My setup is a full Viking Coil Over setup with UMI tube suspension front and rear. I use the HR parts drag bar, and a hollow front WS6 sway bar. Nothing too extravagant but it rides well, and performs nicely for what I ask of the car. The stance...

    New 18" GNX wheels with a 285/40/18 Nitto NT05R installed (test fit)

    Well I am back at the test fitting! This time in my new roles as a wheel and tire guru. We wrapped Gbodyparts 18x9 GNX wheel in a Nitto NT05R Drag Radial and put it on my car. Very nice fit, and could even lower the car an inch to settle at 26.5" from ground to center quarter fender lip...

    Large listing of items to be sold off

    These items were to be used in a conversion of a hot air car to intercooled. The person I was performing the work for has sold off the car and no longer needs these items. He has asked me to sell off the items. All these items were sourced by me personally to perform the work. All...

    Hood liner pad, 9 hole used

    I came across this hood pad while buying a couple BRF 200-4R transmissions from a guy. I took in a bunch of parts. In the items was this hood pad. It's in decent shape and it is a 9 hole pad. It would clean up nicely but I dont want it, so I would be wasting my time on it. I can ship but...

    Vehicle registration numbers; Gbody all models. An interesting view on what is out there

    I have access to registration data as a product manager for LKQ. So today as I drilled down for some late model stuff I drilled down the Gbody platform 81-87 for most of the models. Interesting view on how many cars have dropped off in the past few years. The regal when I started the Gbody...

    No Torque Converter Clutch lockup

    I know somewhat the problem, but wanted to know if anyone knows which wire to probe. Story: TCC is not locking up. It has something to do with a brake circuit I have heard. I have no 12v at the connector at trans KOEO. My computer is fine and is signaling TCC control. I am looking for...

    140 amp or 200 amp alternator Powermaster?

    I will be buying one of these tomorrow. Before I do, wanted to get thoughts. I have dual fans, dual pumps. Nothing too outrageous in the electrical demands. Everything is hotwired directly to the battery and run a stock style ignition. It seems logical to me that 140 would be enough. Would...

He wanted me to make an informative thread on the site that list a part number that will be searchable. So in the future if you are needing new clamps you can call TA, or Nick, or other...

    Look at this unicorn I come across!

    Did any GN's come with a full size spare? I come across this unused, never bolted on 215/65/15 Goodyear Eagle GT tire. The blue is still on the OWL. Pretty cool history here.

    trunk kit - trunk lid carpet piece, how to keep it from dropping after time

    Anyone have any ideas on keeping the trunk lid piece from dropping over time? I had followed all directions with using contact cement in keeping the trunk lid piece to the trunk lid. After a couple years the bottom of it is giving way. Anyone used any fasteners or removed and reapplied with...

    What could I expect with switching out my 6262 precision with 6262 Garrett

    I know, sounds weird right? But yes, I have a couple turbos. The current 6262 PTE I have is fine, pulls well, spools fine. But, I also have a work turbo 6262 as well down stairs with an 11 blade GTX35 MFS Billet wheel. From what I have been told the wheel is a beast. I remember this turbo...

    Time to replace the Hydroboost, so..Hydratech or Tallon Hydro?

    It has come time for me to replace my hydroboost head, and was wondering which one is a better option. Both websites claim they use brand new units, so is there a difference other than price? I do not need ANYTHING else other than the head, so lines, MC, fittings, are of no concern to me. I...

    Trying to simulate this sound on a lift, need thoughts

    I am trying to NOT replace parts like a monkey and actually find out if this is true exhaust leak. I have brought this video out before and asked for thoughts. Most come back with crossover leaks or header leaks. I have inspected headers and all are good, however with this being said the V...

    XFI 02 went haywire this afternoon, then its ok???

    I had an unusual issue with my 02 circuit on the XFI today. I took it for a drive since the weather was nice here. I noticed my 02 trouble light illuminated on my E-dash. So I looked at my readings that seemed quite lean (15.9) pulled over, and cleared the code. Pulled back out, light...

    Front sway bar mount holes stripped out

    I had a couple holes that hold the front sway bar bushing strip out on my last night. I compensated my oversizing the hole and going with a larger bolt, but not happy with the size of the bolt head I had to use. It will not allow me to tighten all the way, hence the reason for the smaller...

    Broke both #6 body bushing bolts off F$%^#%!!

    Well, I knew it was time to do some body bushing work, and didnt anticipate breaking the blessed bolts off, they were rusted to shit, and I guess I am not surprised. Well, so I thought I would run through the check list of items to take loose to allow me adequate room to lift the body off the...

    Steering box excessive play?

    I can tell it's winter. You sit around in the evenings when it's dark and nothing to do thinking what is next to replace on the car. So after I have replaced all the body bushings, missing braces, added the GNX brace, etc. I have come across another item that needed attention. I have slop in...

    front mount intercooler and jounce bar fit

    I am running a GBP front mount intercooler. I must have removed my jounce bars and not replaced them because they are not there. It appears the jounce bars will not interfere with the intercooler pipes. Those that have precision fmic or a GBP do you have your bars still installed?
