My name is Amanda and I am one of the Admin's here. I used to have a 1998 Pontiac Sunfire... great little car! I don't care for the looks of the new Sunfires, but to each their own. :)

I'm 24, living in Michigan. I've got a wonderful boyfriend... the other Admin here, Patrick. Together we fight crime... okay... maybe not... LOL!! :)

ANyway, let's hear about you all...

WELCOME TO PONTIACTALK.COM!!

Im 21, live in Northern NJ

Currently I own a 2001 GTP, its black with a leather interior. In the past ive owned several Camaros, an 84 Grand Prix, a Firebird an 84 Monte and a slew of other GM products. Im a full time electrician when im working full time LOL...

GREAT TO SEE A PONTIAC FORUM!!!

I'm 53 and I own a 2000 Firebird and a 95 Grand Am currently, I've owned several other G Ams and a couple other Firebirds (and lots of others, these are just my Pontiacs). This site seems to be pretty new, which is cool, because hopefully, lots of others will be joining and putting in their two cents worth. I'm an advanced amateur with several decades of knuckle busting. Hope to get a lot of other "motor heads" signed up soon, because I sometimes need advice, and I'm willing to provide what advice I can. Ever changed out a power window motor on a '95 G Am? I have, it's challenging, and not w/o peril. And why does my Firebird's headlights die every 90 days or so? Bad engineering or bad ground? Like I say, I could some good advice.

Welcome!!!!!! Great to see some enthusiasts here! Tell your friends about us!

Hello, my name is Joe. I have a 1999 Pontiac Grand Prix GT that I bought three years ago when I graduated highschool. I am 20 and a business major at CSU Stanislaus. My parents liked my car so much they bought a 2003 GT. I've always been a Pontiac guy, my parents had a Firebird when I was a kid

Nice! Welcome to the club! We would like to see pics of your ride if possible

Hello all, nice site. My name is Cory. I've got a 1997 Firebird Formula 5.7L LT1 with a Six Speed Manual. Very fun and fast car. The only mod's right now is the muffler is gone and I've got it Y'd out for the dual exhaust, it also has a K&N air filter. I also have a 1993 Camaro Z28 but I'm trying to sell it. It has headers, a flowmaster muffler and a K&N air filter.

welcome man im new as well good luck with the car

I'm Mike. Former owner of a 2001 Grand Prix GTX. 2 days ago is caught fire and now theres nothing left but the rear bumper. The cause is unknown, but was pretty tough to see it go like that. :( But hopefully soon i'll be the proud new owner of a Firebird as soon as I get the insurance money back... A little backround on me. Got back from Iraq in Aug 04, currently in Tampa on reserve status waiting to go back to Active Duty. I hope I can add a little something to this message board and maybe come here to answer some questions I might have in the future.

Hey guys. I'm 21, live in Laval, QC. I'm a university student with barely any time on my hands, which is why I was wondering if anyone can help me out.

I need little help with my 97 Grand Am SE. I'm having a problem with engine over-heating... well not over-heating, but heating up more that it's supposed to. The needle often hits the 3/4 mark, sometimes higher. I'm thinking maybe it's the thermostat, but I haven't had time to check it myself. Oil changes are done every 4000 km, and the engine shows about 260,000 km (I know, it's a lot!!!). Anyone got any suggestions or tips? Would be GREEEEEATLY appreciated!!

In case you're wondering, 260,000 km is 156,000 miles.

Welcome!

welcome to the site!

as for the heating issue, if it is the thermostat, it will heat up, then drop down, then heat up, then drop down, so on...

Thanks Pat. As a matter of fact, that is what does... heat up, drop down, heat up, drop down, ... And, since I posted that message, I had the car checked, turns out it was the thermostat. Crisis avoided!! Thx 4 the help though!

well, glad that i could kind of help!

Hi all, I have A 96 sunfire, 03 grand am, and I enjoy them both emensley.

welcome to the forum!!

What do you guys use on the rims (if anything) to prevent them from rusting in winter, or accumulating calcium and stuff like that? Do you go with some good ol' WD-40, or does it get more complicated than that?!

ive only owned one car with steel wheels, and that was my college beater...so i didnt do anything...how about wax of some sort?

I was directed here from MustangForums. My mom left me a 91 Grand Am DOHC Quad4. Looking to either restore or mod it.

howdy yellow! first a 69 charger, then the stang, then the quad 4? your engines are getting smaller as you go! welcome aboard!

you know, ive seen some MIGHTY good running quad4s!

ahhh..i gotcha! :)

Hi,
Well after a couple of years with my first car a 96 Dodge stratus which I loved and put alot of money into,(car domain (http://www.cardomain.com/id/dodge199)) its time to move on so I am picking up an 03' grand prix se on monday! To start things off I was interested in getting clear corners on my car. I know I had to do the mod myself on my stratus is that the same deal on the prix or are there some manufacture ones available? any help would be appreciated and I'm looking forward to becomeing an active member of the Pontiac group!
-Tom

im pretty sure they are available, i know they are available for my year (01) Welcome!

things for the GP should be MUCH more available.

ya I'm finding that out fast!

i have a stratus as well, and the parts are a pain to find,...SLP makes more parts for the 3800 than all of the aftermarket parts for the stratus combined...

Hey, Im Gary, 24 from the bay area. i have a 79 trans am that i am overhauling and i am a true pontiac lover. all those speedshops that keep telling me to put a chevy in my tranny can eat my dust when im done. anyways i am concidered the first owner since my mom bought it brand new, but it sat for like a decade in the garage before i got to start on it. ill post pics as i go along. curently it is stripped to the frame.

I'm 24 and live in Indianapolis, IN. I just leased a2006 G6 GTP Sedan loaded. I love the car so far. I traded in my 1994 Honda Prelude VTEC and am so far not missing it too much. I look forward to participating in the forums.

how does the power of the GTP feel?

is the G6 GTP supercharged?

i am almost certain that the G6 GTP is NA

j/w cuz the GP GTP's are supercharged

i know..thats what i checked when they first came out..i thoguht that in a small car, the 3800 series II would really scream!

You mean the Grand Am that you claim is modded to the hilt at MF? HAHAHAHAHA. Isn't the head at least milled?


91 Pontiac Grand Am DOHC Quad4
No mods at this time

Thats what I figured.
