Glad to see ya stayed with Pontiac.  You had a great car and Im sure this new ine will get attention to make it better.  I miss my TGP sometimes but time to move on huh?

[/quote]I'd be all for it.. just have to work my ass off to get the TGP in presentable condition  :lol:[/quote]

Yo ya finally got a TGP???  Whats it like?  Condition???  Oh do tell...

Quote from: no1kickerGlad to hear you were able to sell it.  Good luck with your GTP.   :)

when ya think we can get together for a meet at URI again?   This fall isnt to late is it?  Ya got to see the GTP, it needs soem paint touch up on the plastic stuff though.  Think I just bought a HUD for it too.

I sold the TGP yesterday.  I sold it to a kid who wants a cool car with balls, he was looking at a Integra but went for thr TGP, good choice, he was asking about aftermarket mods etc and I told him about this site and others.  I hope he logs on here and becomes an active member.

I want to thank you all for the valuable info you have shared and for not being dicks like other people on the other sites, truly a bunch of guys into cars here and no egos.

I sponsored this site and encourage everyone to do the same, just think what knowledge you have gained from being here.

Good luck to all and I will stop in from time to time.

Hey guys, its still available. Some guy might want it if he can sell his ford truck, he said he needs a family car and plans on mounting a baby seat in the rear.

I want to sell it to a motorhead, I dont want baby sh1t in it.
I did to much work for it to end like this..

Someone help a brother out, I mean a TGP out....(CRYING)


It has 163k miles. I drive it every day and love it.

Red with tan leather seats, Interior is in good shape for the age, headliner is not falling, and seats are not torn. All interior stuff works like HUD, DIC, all seat functions. Radio is from a Cutlass, am/fm cassette, the steering wheel controls work. Has an aftermarket sunroof and it doesn?t leak. The wheels are painted, the gold cross lace are now black cross lace like the GTA wheels, it really looks a lot better than the gold IMO. The wheels do have some scrapes and dents, they are not perfect. The car is inspected till Jan 05, I drove it last winter and had no problems with it starting in the cold. Heat works, defogger works, blower works although I wish the fan blew harder. Power windows, seats, locks, tilt, cruise control, etc. Turbo spools up fine with no play, I have never took the heat wrap off the crossover pipe, I have no problems with the car running or smoking so I saw no need to look at it. I don?t suspect it to be cracked.

The stuff I did to it:

Coils, plugs, wires
Intake, throttle, etc gaskets
Distributor o ring
Transmission fluid and filter, fuel filter, other filters
Brake pads all around
New rear caliper
New GM brake accumulator
Repaired the gage cluster so the ?check gages? and ?low fuel? lights are not on
Replaced the drivers information display, the old one didn?t store stuff into memory
Repainted all the stuff someone really screwed up, stuff was painted orange and gold, its all back to black as it should be
Detailed engine and interior
New rear speakers
Replaced radio so steering wheel controls work, it had a real crappy aftermarket one
Replaced power antenna
Two new mufflers
New water pump and thermostat
New o2 sensor

Now the stuff it needs:

It could use new tires but the ones on it passed the last inspection.

The ?antilock? light comes on, I really suspect the front wheel sensors, this does not effect the operation of the brakes, I let my daughter drive it like that. I love her and would not let her drive something unsafe.

The fuel level gage isn?t accurate, I replaced the sending unit with a used one and it didn?t fix it, It changed the way it works somewhat but its not accurate, I fill up by tracking miles. 24 MPG by the way.

The driver?s window sticks, you have to push or pull it to open or close, probably the regulator.

It has dents and scratches, nothing major, it is 14 years old. The front bumper was hit in a parking lot and has a 6 inch crack in it below the lights, missing the lower front valance, it came to me that way. No body rust, there is some under the car but nothing unusual for Maine that I can see.

Air-conditioning didn?t work and I didn?t even try to see what was wrong with it

Trip odometer doesn?t work I have parts to fix it but no time

How the car came to me. Well I saw it sitting in a driveway and recognized it was a TGP (I also have a GTP). It happened to belong to my daughter?s friend, it was sitting for quite some time and I asked if he would sell it. He is 16 and didn?t want the car, his dad bought it for him but he didn?t have the interest or money to put into it. So I bought it from him, it sat for 3 months in my drive way till I got the title, It was officially mine now.
It hardly ran when I got it, the brakes were inoperative and just had a lot of stuff to fix. I spent a lot of time and $$$ to get it road worthy, and to pass strict Maine inspections.
I spent a lot of time online finding out about the car and how to fix the stuff, buying parts here and there and doing what I could to get it back to original condition. It still needs some attention but I feel I saved it from being parted out.
Personal problems force me to sell it, I have a few cars and must liquidate so I can finance a place to live and a divorce.

I live in Lisbon Falls, Maine which is about 30 miles north of Portland. I can deliver the car a reasonable distance or meet you half way.

Anything else you can call me at 207-353-8104

Quote from: no1kickerI've seen the car in person and it looks nice.  Good luck with the sale.

Thanks, There are a couple guys interested in it on the w-body boards.  I would like to sell it to someone willing to keep up the work in restoring it.

Last time I list this, price is down to $1500. That breaks me even with what I have in it. It has to go, I hate to part with it, I have done so much to it.

If you want a TGP email me, I will sent pics and info

Its in Maine, I may deliver somewhere in New England.

The cardomain link is not up to date but close....

Anyone know about this?  The guy hasnt emailed me back with more info.  It just pisses me off when you list like that.

"Description    
this turbo came off a 90 or 91 grand prix gtp it was a mclaren "

Nothing else with it, no shipping, no condition, nothing......

I like your design but there is already alot of black.  Silver would be drowned out.

I just replaced the fuel pump and fuel sending unit and during the test drive it sounded like the turbo was whining?  Never heard that before.

I'm about to take the TGP off the market and give it a new look.  I hate the red/gold combo, looks great on the black cars but not right on the red ones.  So the gold crosslace wheels are going black like the GTX wheels.  I love those wheels and they will look great on a red car.  The windows have a dark tint and the hood louvers were painted black before my time.  I really think the red/black combo works alot better.  Black racing stripe from front to back??  I think that will look good too.  I have already de-badged the sides but left the rear.

Give me your thoughts on the stripe, one wide single or thinner dual stripes?  IT WONT LOOK GETTO, I'M NOT INTO THAT....

Quote from: harleymanthe car occassionally stalls at stop signs.  Don't all TGPs?

Nope, there was a BCC supercede that was supposed to fix that problem.   Either way, a TG chip would fix that.   :wink:

Mine stalls too.  Can you decode your fixes for us? (BCC, TG chip)

Thanks

Hum.... 15 hour drive for me..... I love road trips......When and how many cars will be there, Its got to be worth it.

Ya think so?  I'm watching it just for fun, I wont bid.

You have a PM.  I need the power window motors.
