    Suspension help...Please

    on my original 87GN suspension is beating my kidneys into submission whenever I am on any road that is not smooth. I replaced the original shocks with KYBs. They were a vast improvement for overall handling. I am assuming that all of the bushings will need to be replaced. Also, I am leaning...

    Lighter blowing fuses

    I use the lighter as a USB power source. The original lighter would blow the fuse any time I plugged it in. The same thing happened when I plug in the USB charger. I changed the entire lighter assembly and it still happens. Fuse controls radio, locks, lights. I have been over the forums...

    Yet another shifter question

    Before you kill me....I have searched this forum as well as other Buick G-body sites for the answer. Nothing clear enough for me. I would like to change my OEM shifter with either a Hurst or B&M shifter. Since I'm not overly mechanically inclined, I need a simple solution. It doesn't...

    Suspension ideas

    I am running with a stock suspension and original shocks. Feels like I am floating when on the highway. Until I hit a bump or crack in the road. I feel every crack in the road. I really want to tighten up the suspension, but I am no mechanic. I have read most posts and everyone seems to...

    All stock.....bad times...

    What is the best time that I could get with a new chip? 87 GN is 100% original. Took it to the track today. Best time was 14.8 @ 91mph.

    change of plans

    I have decided not to make my 95% original 87 GN a race car.:biggrin: What I want to do instead is make it the ultimate sleeper. I want to make the car run strong and ride smooth. I am less concerned with power ( although I will be installing 42lb injectors, 3"DP and a TT chip.) There is a...

    Stupid Question of the Day

    :confused: My 87 GN is all stock, 100%. As with anything with a computer, I feel that it might be time for a software upgrade. If I go with the TT chip, is it as simple as just "out with the old and In with the new"? I want to make sure that I don't screw something up by just swapping out...

    Stock Trans....is it dead?

    Ok guys. I was cruising home at a very easy pace (around 35 mph) Suddenly, transmission starts slipping. I gave it a little throttle and she picked up and went on fine. Then, she just decided not to move. The only gear that she stays in is Park. Everything else, even reverse, just feels...

    Downpipe to exhaust...

    Guys First let me say, that I am still new to this stuff, so forgive a little ignorance on my part. :p I want to change to a 3 inch downpipe (from original). I will be eliminating the cat and putting on a new exhaust system, with electric cutouts in between. My question is, do I need to...

    Would this work?

    Since cold air is such a necessity for these GN's I was wondering if this type of setup is viable. :confused: Basically it is adding a cold air intake tube to the current configuration. They meet at a "T" connector and then flow into the turbo. Each Cold Air Intake tube could have an inlet...
