95gtpFrausto Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Hello All, My name is Marco I am 25 years old and I have a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix Special Edition. It has the 3.4L in it and I haven't done any mods to it yet. Right now it is pure stock through and through. My goal is to make this car into a bad ass vehicle! Thanks, Quote
Night Fury Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Welcome! I'm fairly close in NW MO Can't wait to see some pics Quote
virtuetovice Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Welcome. Post up some pics! I grew up in a blue 95 GP. Quote
88red4cyl Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 Welcome Marco! Where abouts in Iowa are you? Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 Im in south eastern iowa, over by washington/fairfield area. I'm originally from the Iowa City area but I'm married and got 3 kids in school so yup! I was just at the ozarks this summer great time! Hey 88red4cyl, there was this fella in your neck of the woods thats got a 1989 Chevy Beretta GTU which was the same one I had as a first car! That thing was sweet and I'm sure he's got it still I haven't been down that way for a good few months now so I don't know the status of the vehicle right as of now Quote
crunkGP96 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) Nice! car looks pretty clean! Leave the wheels white, If you want to do black, just plasti dip them. Really cheap mod and it holds up great! Best part is you can easily go back to white just by peeling off Edited December 11, 2012 by crunkGP96 Quote
crunkGP96 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 If you don't know if you know how it looks but check out my wheels on my 00 GTP Daytona edition. Masked off the lip on the wheels and bam! Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 crunkGP96, you have nothing but great ideas bro! I really appreciate it because I'm torn between leaving them white and or having the black put on there! Quote
Psych0matt Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 I have 5 spokes painted black by the previous owner, and I believe they were white. I want to try and get the paint off and have white ones. I haven't tried the plasti dip yet since my wheels actually needed painting, but I have a few sets of rims I might try it on. Monte 5 spokes? Anyways, nice car man, white is by far my favorite color on them Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 monte 5 spokes would look good imho! Thanks guys for the compliments, this is my daily driver it's got 186k on it and still running strong! I just never modded any vehicles before... I tried on my first car I had in my life which was a 1989 Chevy Beretta GTU with the 2.8 which was pretty sweet... the only thing I did was cold air intake haha but yup! Quote
Psych0matt Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 Modding these cars isn't hard, just don't be afraid to break things! do your homework, get familiar with stuff, wrench away! I currently have xlaces on my monte, but now that I mentioned that, I think in the spring I'll do that, clean up the 4 best wheels (I have two sets ) and paint them up, maybe polish the lip! Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 haha hell yeah bud! Got any pics of your ride bro? Quote
vyper144 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 Welcome! Nice car man! Still got a lot of life left so get modding away!! Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 Oh I know it brother! I can't wait for exhaust system I'm going to throw on there... Don't know if I should go with Flo-Masters or Borla.... the choices the choices! Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 A 3.4 you should put magnaflow mufflers on it. They sound really good on that engine. Nice car looks really clean and I love the white white wheels on a white car. Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 Thank you sir! I love her too! Her name is Marylin as in Monroe haha. I've always told people that shes wearing that famous white dress lol ANYWAY I will really look into magnaflow mufflers for sure! I like your Cutlass you got there too bud! Those lines do look real nice! Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 Thanks. Yeah my cutty is kept up pretty nice over the years. That is a good name for a car I think that's pretty classy actually. A couple of people have used the maganflow glasspacks. Including myself and they give a nice sound to an engine I think is hard to make sound good. Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 Thanks! I try to keep it classy like Ron Burgandy! haha! I like that dogbone you put on there was that difficult and where did you find that particular one at? Quote
94 olds vert Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 I think I found that FFP one in the junkyard in a old lumina. They don't make them anymore, but they do come up for sale on the forums time to time. They are really easy to put in. Just take out the old one and bolt in the new one. I'd recomdend getting a rear strut tower brace (RSTB) I believe someone on the board can still get brackets made up. Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 11, 2012 Author Report Posted December 11, 2012 Awesome! Thats too bad they don't make them anymore! Quote
Addicted to eaton Posted December 12, 2012 Report Posted December 12, 2012 Your not too far from me!! Quote
95gtpFrausto Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Posted December 12, 2012 Yup a good 3 hours! Nice car bud! Quote
