Okay, finally got around to getting my kit installed and am just delighted! I should have done it 4 months ago - it was so easy! Great kit Greg!! I highly recommend it, easy to install (took me 2-1/2 hours at a liesurely pace) and works great ... and yeah, the high beams are brighter too. Really imp...

Makes sense - yes, an AC shop is going to finish the job up so I will leave it to them. Thanks for the feedback

I was installing a Milanos AC compressor into my GTV6 and dumping the York - as per the technical article on this site "AC modifications". I got the setup from APE and I'm ready to put it in but had a particular question - and was hoping someone can help. In the article the author mentions...

Please keep me in touch on the hoodscoop! I want one if the guy can make them. Thanks!

I've been wanting to replace the carpet in my v6 as well. I talked to International Auto who has the sew-in sets - I guess you you glue them in. Has anyone installed a set from them? I remember talking to an auto upholstry place the other year back who would make and install new carpet doing it glue...

Greetings! I received my light kit just the other day - looks quite complete - and the instructions look pretty good. I hope to get them on in the next few weeks, when I do I'll take images as I go - maybe you can use them for your instructions or I can start a posting with some of them. Cheers! Gre...

Downloaded that first photo of the GTV at speed to print out for the bulletin board - looks great!

Very nice! Those 3.0 hoods you guys have over there are just killer! I wonder what it would cost to ship one to the US - are they something a wrecker would have or is it a rare item??

Gregory

Wow - I haven't seen that color before - is it a light metallic blue? - Love it! Looks great and the wheels really work well - sporty but elegant!

Hi Doug, Saw your post - don't know if you figured it out by now since it's been two months. Even with the original 2.5 AFM/throttle body/fuel lines/ you should NOT have any problem with the cold start. I've had this car for a long time and I do remember some years back experiencing what you describ...

Can you post an image or two - I'm on a mac - can't view a wmf.

GV

Sweet! - The photos popped in place today - underthe hood pic brings tears to the eyes -nice job.

Yeah the bright silver awesume when the light hits it just right - keep it original!

One of the first V6s I saw back when was black and it was drop dead gorgeous! The other I think a rare color was gold I think they did it in 85 or 86 - not sure but i have only seen 2 - ever!

Very very nice!

Hey that almost looks like my 83! Sharp - you can tell the owners before you have really taken care of it!

I don't know the paint looks pretty darn good to me even the wheels look sharp - did you repaint them already>?

Gregory
