Hi All,
i have just purchased a 1992 GTO (natually aspirated) and i want to install a pod air filter.
the problem arises with chip on the intake system which as far as i can tell records the air flow tempreture.
does anyone know of a way to remove this and/or trick it to think the temp is at a certain degrees? Also the pipes are oval shape not round like the pods, are there any easy ways to install the pod?
thanks

Hi All
Can any one tell me if a 94 3000 v6 Sigma Engine will fall straight into a 1993 Mrk 2 GTO. If not what Pitfalls am I likely to come across? What parts wont fit? Both cars are non-tubos and automatics. Any information would be greatfully received.

Hi everybody, i am new to these cars and need some advice.
I am fixing a 93' 3000GT VR4 for a friend. His mechanic told him the water pump siezed and stopped the timing belt, bending some valves. He was quoted $3000 to have it fixed, i told him i could probably fix it for much less. He drove the car a few seconds after the pump siezed. It has no compression in 2 cylinders i am told. Before i tear into this car, i would like to know what kind of damage i am looking at.
Are the pistons likely damaged or is it probably just bent vavles?
If it is just bent valves, what kind headwork is likely needed?
Are there any good upgrades to do, for durability or performance, to the valvetrain or heads while i have them off? The motor is stock.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

I have a problem. My car isn't working properly either.
Under part throttle conditions it is reluctant to accelerate.
When the boost comes in, it buggers off down the road like the proverbial, as you would expect.
Another symptom is when the manifold pressure equals the outside pressure,
and you ease off the gas a little, it stumbles and the ECU registers a high knock count (28'ish).
It feels like it is running lean when manifold vacuum, and rich when on boost. I have pressurised
the induction system, looking for air leaks, and found none. Not checked the manifold yet.
I have replaced the lash adjusters, the fuel filter, plugs and leads. Also fresh oil and filter.
I have a new fuel pump, yet to fit, and I will probably then move on to the fuel pressure regulator and
solenoid. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this ? Please help, I'm running out of ideas.
It all points to an air leak, from my own limited experiance, so it may be manifold (not plenum, had that off),
or worse still a head gasket. Any ideas ???? Cheers!

The air conditioning unit inside my 1992 3000 GT Has a LCD display Screen of Temp, flow direction and whatnot. This was working about a month ago and all of a sudden it went out. Lights on buttons work and heat and air work great just the LCD wont come on. Any Ideas?

Hello
Somebody sideswiped me on sunday so i have to find a new door shell and lower molding on the right side of a 1991 3000GT SL
does anyone know if i can get a stealth door and use a 3000GT Molding on that door? or do i have to find a new door and new molding because the door is $775.00 and the molding is $573.45 and that is way to expensive for my tastes.
Thanks

So I bought a mega cheap 92' 3kGT SL that wasn't really runnin. Waited till i found a donor car, but the donor was a 94 Diamante. Considering it was dif gen engines there where a few obscure things that needed to be changed, and def had to have the electrical changed. Finally got the motor set in and found out that it didnt clear the hood. I need to find a hood with a slight induction or something. I found a cardomain site where some dood had a hood identical to what I need. I really don't wanna have to fab it myself and I don't want a huge Cowl Induction. If someone could point me in the right direction for one that would be great. I'll give the link to that site to give ya an idea of what is needed, but it needs to be roughly 1 1/2''- 2''.

Ive just imported a mitsubishi 3000gt and am not really a fan of the stock front bar, was just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of a shop site etc that has front bars that look that little bit different.
thanks in advance
BTW ive read the parts sticky and none really appeal to me, there is a nice one on a black GTO from carsales.com.au if anyone could pick out the brand to me that woudl be great

Hey i was cleaning out the interior of my gt today and took out the seats. after washing the carpet and all that fun stuff i started putting everything back together. (the car was on the whole time to make the carpet dry quicker) while i was putting the driver side seat back in i heard a noise that sounded like an electrical spark. the instance i head that the car shut off and i wasnt getting any power. FYI the plugs on my electric seat was a little corroded so i took on of the wires out previously and connected it manually instead of through the regular plug. i am assuming that that wire came in contact with some part of the seat and caused a short. i checked out all the fuses that i could and all of them were good, not a single one was blown. that battery is fully charged. i have no clue why my car isnt getting power. if someone could tell me what they think that would be great!

I'm wondering if I should get a cheaper, beat up 3000gt/Stealth for about $4000 and fix it up or get a decent one for $8000 or $9000.
One I'm looking at right now is here
91' Teal GT SL for $3,995I'm thinking this will be a big project for me. Probably over a couple years of work to get it how I want. Here are some of my goals for this car.
Fix whatever they do from 91 to 94.
Body Kit
Paint, orange reflective
Leather Interior
AWD Turbo charged engine
Bigger exhaust, cold air intake
General maintanence (like the 60k tune up kit and whatever else I need to keep it running well)
The reason I'd rather get a beat up ugly one with potentially lots of miles is because I want to replace the engine, change the color and get a body kit anyways. Whats the point of getting something nicer if you are just going to replace all of it anyways?
I am not mechanically skilled. I have taken apart geo metreos and put new engines in on those but I'm not what you would called skilled. I have a brother who has worked on a lot of corvettes also and he would help me a lot. The reason I'm saying this is that I need basic responses, I don't know much but I really want to learn.
The first and the least I want to do is do general maintanence and change the mechanics to make it a 94 instead of a 91. I know those early years were the only years any serious changes were made.
Is this a good idea for me? any input would be nice. thanks

Hey , I was just informed by my mechanic that my auto trans is shott!!
It was leaking and has a black oily color to the fluid. He said if he just changes the fluid it will make it slip worse.
He found a used automatic trans w/ a 90 day warranty for $1500.00 installed, but I am leery of a used part. He called every shop he could and none would rebuild my trans.
Does anyone know of a shop in the Phila. PA area that rebuilds the SL auto transmissions?
Also is it possible to convert my Automatic trans SL to a Manual trans SL at this time since I need a new Trans anyway. This would be my first choice since all of my other vehicles are standard transmissions too.
Thanx for any advice

I have a '97 3000GT Auto with 134K miles. Recently my Check Engine light came on and so i thought nothing of it for a while. This afternoon however, I'm pulling out of my appartment complex and barely reach 40MPH before it feels like the car shifted to neutral and the RPM's go way up. This happens a couple more times until the car finds finally realizes that its in drive and drives nearly normal. Later at night when im getting off of work, I shift the car to drive and it goes no where! I'ts really pissing me off because i have no idea what could be the problem though, it seems obvious that it is the transmission. ANY help whatsoever would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I have a 1994 3000GT, base model. About a week or so ago the headlights just stopped working. I checked the bulbs, fuses, relays, and grounds, and I can't find anything wrong... The one thing I thought might be the problem was the automatic headlight cut switch, but I replaced that and the headlights still don't work. Everything else works fine. The parking lights turn on and so do all other lights in the car. It starts the same, doesn't act any different than she ever has. If anyone has any suggestions or has experienced a similar problem please let me know. Thanks.

Is this good car compared the 3000gt? Do they use the same parts like the stealth and 3000gt? Pros and cons of each?
I know one thing, it has a lot of power for how much money it costs. Looking around autotrader, I see deals for a 98 talon with turbo and AWD for 7 grand and only 100k miles. A 3000gt of the equivalent costs 12-14k cash.
And if I did get one, I'd probably want to make it look more like a 3000gt

the 3000gt is just too sexy. Would it be not too hard to get a similar look?
