Hey guys.  This forum is sorta unique in that you're required to introduce yourself in your first thread. I've never seen this before.

Anyway, back in May 2008 I bought this: http://pics.bbzzdd.com/users/futurisitcmonkey/P7310181.JPG and it's treated me great so far.  However, now that I've been looking into it there are a few things I want to do to start to improve it.  Since its still under extended warranty (I wasn't really into cars before) I don't wanna do anything extreme yet.  I've ordered the GMPP stb's and rear sway bar to help out with cornering when I get into some aggressive driving.  Depending on how this goes I'm thinking of getting the GMPP trailing arms as well.  Later on I'm thinking of doing a top-swap to get a few more horses out of the engine.  Thing is, the 3800 S2 is a great engine for a university student (enough power to be fun but not bad on gas) so I don't know about that.

Anyway, I figured I'd join this forum in order to benefit from all of the experience here.

Rock on

Yeah that host is a little finnicky. To make it work you'll have to copy the link, open a new window/tab and paste it into the address bar.  If that still doesn't work, hold down CTRl and click refresh.

That's a nice car BTW.

-i see all the pics.... plus some i KNOW wont work, so i cant post them, unless i link, then you need to be a flickr member. then i realize some of the photos are from 'my contacts' that have added  me as a friend... so it makes things different. but honestly sometimes i spend hours on flickr not even looking at porn! haha

Yeah they've been discontinued.  Check out my post at the bottom of this link.  I did a bit of looking into it and that's what I found for the T/A's.

Heh thanks guys. 

Sofaking:  As for the trailing arms, they finally came in.  The new part number is 25990164 and the net price was 79.25CAD for EACH arm.  As an added bonus, they're made in China whereas the other GMPP stuff I ordered was made in Canada roll.  They are made of solid square bar, tho so hopefully the price increase is at least sort of justified.
