Title: WANTED!!! Any and All TGP/TSTE Pics and vids for TGP tribute Video EDIT pg 1
Post by: AWeb80 on February 11, 2008, 10:36:40 PM
I'd like to make a tribute vid to the TGP.

Please post or email me decent res pics and vids.  I will not edit any lic plates, so do those before you send to me if you want them edited.

Please have them by thurs or friday...as I'll try and get it done this weekend.

email is

my sn @ hotmail.com

You don't need to post pics here if you have them hosted in a PB account...just post the link.

If they are somewhere that is password protected, then post the pics.


If you want your SN in the video, send you SN along w/ the email if you email me the pics

I figured I'd post this here to get as much response as possible....

SPREAD THE WORD!!!!


Thanks.




anyone who submits pics gets to suggest music for the vid.....only those who submit pics.

The car mentioned above is on the W-body board. It has a larger turbocharger on it...but I don't think it's tuned worth a crap. He was still using stock injectors at one point with a really large turbocharger(he had some sort of T70 on there, but has switched to something smaller).

I wouldn't expect a large response Adam. There's only a small percentage of people here that even post on a semi-regular basis. ;)

I'll send you some stuff in a bit. I might even record some new videos later this week once I'm feeling better.

I'll go through my shit this weekend... but most of my pics involve jack stands and disassembled motors, with a few shitty exhaust vids thrown in :lol: I never really had/have had an opportunity to clean the TGP or TSTE up nice and take some nice shots of either.

the gold lace rims weren't TGP specific, they came on the bonnevilles as well and I know I have seen em on other GPs, although they may not have been stock, but there is a GPSE in the yard now with these rims on it.
But other than that, lookin good.

ok, but are you sure that only the TGPs came with em and not other grand prixs, cuz I know I have seen some around with em that weren't TGPs? I could be wrong though :icon_question:

Yes, other GPs had them also

Actually, the xlace rims on the TGP are Grand Prix Specific. The Xlaces on the Bonnie will not work on a Gen 1 GP. They have a diferent offset, and will grind on the calipers. Been there, done that.

As far as downloading those vids, if you download and install the latest version of RealPlayer, it will let you right click on the vids I posted, and download them. Other vids, if you just move your mouse over the vid, a little box will pop up sayind "download this video".

Bonneville xlaces are 7'' wide with about a 40-42mm offset. They will not work on a 1st gen w-body unless you run spacers(maybe 5/8 to 1/2'' thick, I've measured before, but I forget what clears). The bonne xlaces make a good upgrade for certain N-bodies(you won't be able to fit the 225/60/16's that came on those xlaces in the rear though as they'll rub the struts).


And the gold xlaces started out TGP specific, but the later cars got them in the following years(91-93 and 94-96 could have them).
