I just went through the first tank on my new to me 03 GT. 33 mpg driving mostly highway 45 mi each way to work tried to keep it at 65. Now I'm about half way through the second tank and have been driving more aggresively, hitting lift regularly when accelerating to a cruising speed of about 75. We'l...

Re: Anyone with a LeBra? (HawaiiPontiacLover)

Hey, there's a pic of one. Thanks! I was mostly wondering how far up the hood it went. I'm thinking that the bra would look better than the beat to crap paint that is exposed now. Around these parts, its only a matter of time before the front end will be painted due to a deer collision. I think I'll...

Anyone have a bra on their Vibe? Pictures please

My hood is pretty beat up, chips etc. Trying to decide if a bra would look OK to cover it up. Or whether to ante up for some paint work. I've found some bras on sale on the net, but none with good pics for the vibe.

I bought my 03 GT this past weekend. Mine has a few more miles on her than the one your looking at-80k. Seems to be a strong running little car and its pretty fun to drive. I'm going to be checking out the lift bolts this weekend after reading this thread. Other than that, what I've learned in my re...

Hi Newb here.

I just bought an 03 Vibe GT, Has a Magnaflow exhaust. Only mod (so far) other than a drop in K&N air filter. I've learned a lot through this forum as I researched my new gas saving car. I commute about 90 miles a day so I'm looking forward to driving a fun car while still getting decent mileage....

It came out 210, 206, 218, 207. All above the minimum specs. Looks like I'm a new Vibe GT owner.

High, Newbie here Compression question.

Hi folks, I am considering a Vibe GT as my daily driver. I am looking at a really nice used 03 and will be doing a close mechanical check of it this week. I've learned a lot by searching the forum here, but couldn't find the specification for a compression test. Would any of you that have a repair m...
