I've had a GP since 1999, my current one since 2000.

In the '97 I've replaced:

Steering rack and front wheel bearings
Supercharger bearings and Coupler
Fuel Pump hotwire (to bypass blown resistor)
Fuel Pump w/sender
Blower motor resistor

And that's pretty much it. Everything else was replaced as an upgrade. The steering rack was probably my own doing since I ran 245/50/16's on the car for 7 years and 225s were the stock size.
