Hey guys,

I'm not quite sure where this came from, but here we go.. I don't know if you guys are familiar with the Japanese tuning scene, but many of them love American cars. Alot of high-end tuning companies import Corvettes and stuff to **** with.. I've seen pictures of Corvettes, Mustangs, Camaros, all that on Tokyo streets.. The Cavalier was even available over there (under Toyota), and believe it or not, you can make a JDM Cavalier.. lol. So what I'm asking is this.. Does anyone know of any such doings with a Cobalt? Not saying I want to put side markers and RHD into my Cobalt and be all JDM-y0 or anything, but I think it'd be sweet to see some well-respected tuning company over there import an s/c or something and go tear up the Tsukuba circuit or something.. haha Otherwise, if not, don't post and make fun of me. haha. I'm just used to all of my friends rollin' in their turbo Civics and **** and it makes me think of weird things.. haha

 

thatd be cool. havent heard of balts yet, i think the turbo would be more their stye, but i have seen some cavaliers like you mentioned that were pretty built

 

nah never heard of a Japanese cobalt, i think there are some around Europe somewhere. but good luck finding them

 

Well surely be on the look out.. I think it'd be cool to have an over seas connection through Cobalts..

 

Jdm = Gay

 

As I said, I'm not asking about what it takes to make a JDM Cobalt. All I asked was if there's any companies over there doing big things with a Cobalt. That's it. Don't be an ass.

After random search: not JDM, but I like the exhaust.. Kinda like the Cooper S..

The stuff they make in japan for japan is better than what american companies make (for cars). Exception: videogames...

 

the cavalier was the only such chevy car to be marketed by toyota in japan.

 

adm FTW

 

They don't sell Cobalts in Japan...

 

Its JDM yo.



Yup, x2. Yeah, instead of having chevy, they signed it over to make it have a toyota badge.

God nevermind. One person understood what I meant.

 

get new friends

 

You want to see or know about a JDM cobalt?


We get off topic alot here.

 

I'm getting a ADM sticker on my car...American Domestic Market....But I believe there was a thread about 2 "JDM" cobalts in japan not too long ago...They were both drag cars I think...but who knows maybe they swapped k20's in them or something

 

Not at all. I said I was wondering if anyone knew if any big tuning companies over there IMPORTED a Cobalt to mess with. Like they did with Corvettes and such. I never EVER said they MADE them FOR Japan. They never made Corvettes for them either. They IMPORTED them. Like we import things like Skylines. Goddamn.

 

I understood what you said, but am unable to help in this matter.

 

That's fine. It just pisses me off when everyone thinks they have to be a smart ass and add in their two cents.

rhd cobalt

 

Over their they probably though it was the biggest piece of **** ever.

 

that was the 272 cobalt at the sema show right before they came out.

 

on the link to that site on page 1 it said they really love them over there, and that there luxury cars over there

 

I think that guy is just making up a bunch of bulllshit so people will actually think cavaliers are cool cars.

 

not gonna happen

 

They have all sorts of odd cars over there, so maybe they thought the Cavy was sweet next to a Smart car? lol.
