cles Posted September 24, 2003 Report Posted September 24, 2003 I am considering buying a 93 GP GTP. Could anyone give me a heads up on what the weak points of this car is?? I haven't called about it yet, so I don't know any particulars on the car...just looking for some good questions to ask the seller. Thanks Cam Quote
Aaron Posted September 24, 2003 Report Posted September 24, 2003 Tq. steer, but that is kinda a good thing 8) is it fully loaded? how many miles? is it COMPLETELY stock? no CD player, no mufflers, etc? uz if its been modded its been raced, and you dont want one that has been raced Quote
The Burning Rom Posted September 24, 2003 Report Posted September 24, 2003 I'm quite sure there are a few threads that have been started about this subject. You have to watch out for the weak points of the 3.4 when looking at a GTP. If the mileage is high, and the motor wasn't maintained properly..there could be some problems. Quote
mfewtrail Posted September 25, 2003 Report Posted September 25, 2003 ask about previous timing belt maintenance and check the timing belt on the car yourself, they're supposed to be changed every 60K or so along w/ the tensioners(if I remember correctly..maybe a DOHC owner can fill you in on that)...only other thing is that the alternators are a pain to change in them...like a few DOHC cars I've seen w/ the alt in relatively the same position Quote
Aaron Posted September 25, 2003 Report Posted September 25, 2003 yah. and they arent a pain cuz of position, it isnt that hard to get to. its just how much effort, knowledge, and work it takes to change it. it aint easy thats for sure. Quote
cles Posted September 25, 2003 Author Report Posted September 25, 2003 This car sounds pretty good then. Only 85 000 miles, timing belt has been changed, new windshield, brakes, muffler. It has the 3.4 L. The only thing it doesn't have is leather. The only bad thing is that it was an insurance write off, but it has been safetied. Price is 7500 CDN. Might look at it today. Quote

cles Posted September 26, 2003 Author Report Posted September 26, 2003 Actually, he came down to 7000, so the deal is done. Yes muffler was supposed to be mufflerS, it does have HUD. Whats DIC?? Quote
Aaron Posted September 26, 2003 Report Posted September 26, 2003 Driver Information Center, if it has HUD, then probly, it is a screen under the radio that shows your cars position(IE N-E-S-W) and shows other things too. Quote
