Sniper Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 I have a grand am, its pretty close to a grand prix. essentially the same car. I have an 8" RE RE (yes, the entry level RE, I aint got cash but I like my sound) dropped in it right now, nothing much, upgraded the rear deck to RE audio 6x's, redid the door speakers, took a dremel to the old 4x6 position and trimmed it down and out, matched the curve with some card board, lined it out on a card board tube of 6" diameter, glued it in place with high strength epoxy, put 6.5s in the doors. (RE audio 6.5s of course) I should post a build log for when I finally decide to wall the bish, im gonna do it next summer most definitely Quote 1997 Pontiac Grand Am SE Broke stock Head Unit Stock speakers suck -if I get a job, it gets 2 SA 8s in a 2.5cube box (roughly 2 cube with the port and woofers in)- -oh, and a new HU and some speakers that dont suck. and possibly a new muffler and tint job (previous owners tint is smudging in the back, if you know how to get tint off a window without damaging the heating stuff, let me know!!!)- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are two completely different cars... size wise, engine wise, looks, and performance(what there is...). Speakers aren't even the same size.

reinke Posted April 12, 2009 Report Share Posted April 12, 2009 there is a differences for sure. and by the way the Grand Am comes with either a 2.3, or a 3.1 liter. if you are lucky you can find a optional 3.4 liter LQ1 as there try at a performance model.

LQ1 is DOHC... which came in the monte carlo z34(95-97).
