    Selling my GN...

    Great community, although never got out to as many events as I woulda liked... did make Bates, Woodley Park, pizza cruise, and they were all a blast. Thanks to those who did help me out with my car several times, especially Jeff and Lou. Wish I had a 12 car garage and could keep all my cars when...

    Anyone done the PM to vacuum conversion?

    I got a great deal (basically free!) on a used vacuum kit from a monte carlo and wanted to replace my very testy Powermaster system. I called my brake shop (which have done great work on all my muscle cars) and they're very hesitant about doing the swap for me because of the used pieces and...

    Culver City Car Show

    Just thought I'd mention that there's a car show this saturday in my neighborhood -- in fact, I live 3 blocks away from it -- in downtown Culver City. Last year I took my Cutlass and there was one other GN there, but I'm taking my GN this year. This is one of the few shows on the west side and...

    Turn signal won't blink

    My left turn signal lights up but won't blink, it just stays solid. I have to click/blink it manually. Is that just a fuse problem?

    Need new Powermaster... or vacuum conversion!

    My master cylinder is leaking and it's making my brakes not very fun to drive with. I already replaced the switch last year so I think it's time to replace the whole unit. After doing some more research... now maybe thinking maybe vacuum conversion.

    Body shop cracked orig GM bumper fillers... advice?

    So I'm about to get my GN back from the body shop after getting the whole thing repainted, and they informed me that the rear bumper fillers have cracked in several places after they painted them. It's an excellent high end shop, they've worked on other cars of mine, and they did a great job...

    hood emblems -- NOS or repro?

    Is there a significant difference in build quality, fitment, durability, etc. between the NOS and reproduction hood emblems? Obviously the NOS ones are better since they're more expensive... but can you really tell after they're put on? I don't mind buying the NOS ones, but only if it's really...

    HELP! Replaced brake (pressure) switch kit, now noisy pump?

    Last week my brakes failed and discovered that I had a bad brake switch kit. It was leaking but after I blew the liquid out and put it back, I was able to drive home 30 miles no problem. I haven't driven it since for fear it'll go bad again. Well, the new brake switch part came in today adn I...

    R12 recharge -- $400????!

    There's an AC/radiator shop right down the street from me that will recharge my R12... but he said the cost of R12 is super high nowadays and will cost me $400 to recharge it. Yikes. He said, as I've read a lot in searches, that the R12 does cool a lot better in these cars than the R134 and...

    Big thanks to Turbo Lou

    Just wanted to give props to Lou for helping me out when my Powermaster brake system failed on me as I was pulling into my bank today. He led me thru the process of identifying the problem, fixing it, and what one part I need as opposed to replacing the whole system, etc.... all over the phone...

    Installed SC&C front chassis brace... no air dam now?

    After some back and forth with Savitske about a couple installation issues (like my assumption that it would come with hardware, it does not.. and removal of the air dam), I finally got his VERY SOLID front chassis brace on. Like all of the stuff he sells, it's really well built and does its...

    17x9 w/5.25" BS for the rear? does that work? need spacers?

    I'm looking at a nice set of Foose Legends I can get the fronts in 17x8 w/4.5" BS like I want... but the rears I can only get 17x9 with 5.25" BS (instead of the 4.75" BS that I want). Does a .5" spacer get me what I want? or does that not help me in this scenario?

    Just called Summit to order Hooker exhaust system, they said their kits only come with the Super Comp mufflers, but Jegs has their with the Aerochamber. From all the reading up here, I went with the Jegs kit w/the aerochamber... but curious why the two different companies would have different...

    How many cranks to start?

    Although I'm still a noob, and I've heard these cars take some extra cranks before the engine starts up, I feel like mine is too many. I put the key in, turn and sometimes it only takes a few cranks to start up, but more often that not, it takes like 6 or 7. :mad: I usually stop after about 4...
