[OLD POST]
[FONT="Times New Roman"]Discounted to $159 for the Pontiac G8 service manuals (set 4). $159 with shipping and taxes rolled into it, out the door on its way to you. The discount code is still active, good for the GM factory service/repair manual set. Use discount

code "Service"

in the checkout after adding the service manual to your shopping cart. The discount code is active from June 8th to July 8th. July 8th, Greg will place the orders.

The goal is 10 orders placed on the Pace Performance website by July 8, Greg will place the orders. This is an extension from the original due date of June 24. We need to get the last few orders to reach the 10 goal. Once that happens, Greg will place the order on July 9, shipping several days later.

If you have questions, please feel free to ask.

These are the GM service manuals for the Pontiac G8. Two separate sets each for the 2008 Pontiac G8 and the 2009 Pontiac G8. Questions about the manuals, ask Greg at Pace Performance.

GMP08E - 2008 G8 Service Manual (http://paceperformance.com/i-5146384-gmp08e-2008-g8-service-manual.html)

GMP09E - 2009 G8 Service Manual (http://paceperformance.com/i-5146392-gmp09e-2009-g8-service-manual.html)

I've talked with Greg at Pace Performance about a group buy for the GM factory service/repair manual. This is actually a group of (4) manuals appx. 600+ pages of detailed diagrams, steps, etc. The same GM service manuals that the dealer technicians use. The group price would be $159, discounted from the original price $180. Shipping may be included in the discount, but check the website to verify.

Please post replies to this thread to let Greg & I know interest.

The new group buy ends the last week of June!

I'm in for a set.

[Kaos]

I'm in...

[american_kestrel]

Thanks for the replies, spread the word! We are much closer to the 10 person minimum Greg @ Pace Performance needs to cut the price $20. I have people interested between this Grrrr8 forum, the other forums and my Capital City G8 Car Club.

[Thomas Aquinas]

I'd be up for one for my 2009.

[Eidolon]

I'm in.

[wagon540]

I'd be in for a 2008

[american_kestrel]

Appreciate the responses! I will let Greg @ Pace Performance know that more than his minimum of 10 people are interested in the group buy! Between this forum, other Pontiac G8 forums and the Capital City G8 Car Club.
I will post in the next few days to let you all know what Greg expects to start the discounted option on his Pace Performance website.

[white lightning]

I can't find the service mans on the pace website. Am I just missing them?

[Greg@PacePerformance]

The part numbers are GMP08E (http://paceperformance.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=264266) and GMP09E (http://paceperformance.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=264267)

Edit added links.
159.95 shipped.

[thegreatob]

Want!

[FieroVin]

I'm in.

[Greg@PacePerformance]

More need to get in on this or it will not go.
We only have about 4 orders.

[PaFromFL]

Just placed my order.

[american_kestrel]

**bump**
Updated links, also search for "G8 Service Manual" at the Pace Performance website
http://paceperformance.com/

Use discount code "Service" in the checkout/shopping cart. Hurry before 24 Jun!

[FieroVin]

Already placed my order... ok guys get those orders in!

[mtolivecracker]

so how this work, if we order, and dont get 10 people, we have to pay full price?

[Greg@PacePerformance]

No I will give the option to either allow you to cancel the order or give a new price.
I have also extended the date to July 8th. to allow people to make a decision or get paid on the 1st for the people that get the retirement/ governement checks.

[american_kestrel]

A few of you have asked if the price will change to full price if we don't reach the 10 order minimum. I talked to Greg at Pace Performance. See the updated post at the first page of this thread. The original date he agreed to keep the discount code active was Jun 24. Now he agreed to extend it to Jul 8.

If we fail to get minimum of 10 orders at the discount rate, then my understanding is the order would not be placed. Greg did not mind extending the date. Everyone should understand the service manuals will only be ordered the day after the agreed target. In other words, on July 9, Greg will place orders charging each a discounted rate ~only if we reach the 10 order minimum~.

[FieroVin]

So how many orders are we up to?

[Greg@PacePerformance]

So how many orders are we up to?
1 '08 and 5 '09 sets.
6 total

[Kaos]

Just added my order -- Order Number: 36269. Thanks for the "group buy!" :thumbsup:

[Thomas Aquinas]

Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.

Just placed my order for a 2009 manual, order number 36271

Thanks for the group buy!!

[FieroVin]

So... we need 2 more. Who's next?

[BluYa76]

So... we need 2 more. Who's next?

Actually it should be at 9 now. I put my order in on the 24th.

[HVNS G8]

I'm in for a GXP manual. Can somebody tell me EXACTLY what I need to do?

Read post #22 above, follow the link, place your order, use discount code at checkout "Service", and sit back and wait for them to be shipped by Greg once he receives all orders. That's it.

[HVNS G8]

Thanks BluYa,easy enough.I should read the posts a bit slower.This manual is gonna be nice to have around.

[american_kestrel]

:repair:
This is still on!! Till Jul 8.

[BluYa76]

Hey Tom can you update us on how many we have now. I would think we are at the 10 mark if I'm not mistaken. Thanks

[tbully]

Order Number: 36404

[Greg@PacePerformance]

Looks like the total ordered is currently at 11 so when the 9th rolls around I will get the order placed.

[jscruick]

Will subject 2009 manual also cover 2009.5 G8GT?

[Greg@PacePerformance]

It should, but I haven't looked in one to verify.

[american_kestrel]

See Greg (Pace Performance) post today. Note the sale ends on Thursday, after Fri no discount (coupon code will not work after this Fri).

:repair:


Sale ends on Thursday and I will be putting the order in on Friday Morning (7/9). Once the order is placed with Helm no other orders will be accepted.

Ordered! Glad I caught this thread in time! Thanks Greg!

[Executor999]

For those of us who are in for the long haul, consider these manuals 'limited printings'. Remember, this car isn't made any more.

[JAM]

Will subject 2009 manual also cover 2009.5 G8GT?

Has it been determined whether this manual covers the 2009.5 G8GT?

Want, but could not get confirmation that the manual covers the 2009.5 G8GT!

[Greg@PacePerformance]

Sorry, but I don't know for sure if it has that info or not. Try making a post about it asking for guys that purchased the '09 version in the last group buy.

I'm assuming I'm too late? Just saw this.

[american_kestrel]

See Greg's follow up post higher up in the thread, we passed the #11 order mark before the expiration Jul 8.

[american_kestrel]

Actually it should be at 9 now. I put my order in on the 24th.

Yes, we are passed the #11 order mark earlier this week, see Greg's updated post midway through this thread.

[BigV8]

Well crap, every time I..m out of town I end up missing out on something. I even called Greg friday for the Glove box light. Oh well, whats $20 more!

[BluYa76]

Dude, that was on the 28th of June!

[american_kestrel]

The way I read the thread, Greg's post on July 1 was that the number was at least 11. He inserted it in the middle of the thread. I was trying to give any last minute folks an update that they would get the discount if they hurried.

Thanks everyone for the sales.
We may have a few extra of each but I won't know for sure until they have all shipped. If interested shoot me a PM.

[Thomas Aquinas]

Greg,

Got my manuals yesterday. They must cover every little detail, cause its 4 volumes! I have a stack of books a foot high! Thanks again for the great price and fast shipping!

[Greg@PacePerformance]

Glad you are happy with them. They take a litte getting use to when you want to look something up, but are very good.

[Eidolon]

I'll say. They've got complete exploded diagrams and repair instructions for the entire Tremec TR-6060. Ridiculous! Got mine today. Good stuff. Thanks again, Greg.

[PaFromFL]

Mine arrived today and they're awesome!

[johnh]

Got mine too..read them cover to cover...(ok not really).

[thegreatob]

Got mine the other day. Holy crap, I expected just one book. These are great and have EVERYTHING in them. Very glad I made this purchase.

Got mine today. I have a lot of reading to do; dang these manuals are large. Thanks for the group discount Greg!

[daviddrift]

How are the manuals? I heard they're for basic users only, do they have a different version of the manuals? what if you're into more advance Pontiac repair (http://www.automd.com/repair/pontiac_m26/)?

Yeah, they are kinda basic. Y'know, your basic full transmission disassembly and reassembly, your basic full wiring and grounding diagrams, your basic full parts list for every electrical connector, your basic description of nearly every major and minor form of maintenance... Very basic. *nods*

Sorry, the group buy was over a long time ago, reference the last post in this thread. You can contact username "greg@wasslow" user on this forum. Ask if you can arrange a group buy, start your thread asking others to join in on the buy.

[Greg@PacePerformance]

I do have 4 of the 2008 service manual left and they run $150.00 plus shipping.
Shoot me a PM if you are interested.
