I have a torque Forward rear bar (red) and a progress sway bar plus the DC strut bar in that picture. The coilovers are the JBP fully adjustable ones with the Bilstin shocks.

As for the cost of the mentioned parts I am unsure how much so make me an offer. I will also put together some numbers after searching for what others sold them for, then sell lower than that.

We are still adressing the clutch issue as well as the likely hood of needing to address fuel lines and perhaps a different pump.

 

awesome

 

im jealous

 

i second that my man.. this guy is going to have the god of all cars on this site.. i hope all turns out well for you victory

 

Thanks for the update Victory! This thread reminded me to buy my lotto ticket.

 

Say hello to changing of times... Maybe with this car the Cobalt will get a little more respect that it so desperately needs...


Keep up the great work man

 

Nice Victory ....its cool to see your SS coming along . Cage looks really good , it looks like it fits well and the door bars seem like they be pretty easy to slip over at the front .

 

damn victory thats gonna be one hell of a ride. can't wait til i get my balt built up like that. well hope everything goes good for you man.

 

That car is gonna FLY.

 

I was just thinking about it, I hope you are doing more than just the Torque brace for the motor. For something like what you are doing I wouldn't even bother with it and get the most rigid motor mounts possible.

 

I'm just curious about wheels and tires myself. What dimensions? Sounds like your trying for 11's on this setup, maybe even 10's. That all depends on the twincharger kit though. Great job by the way. I wish I had money to do similar things as well. Oh yeah, what's the specs on the turbo itself? You allowed to tell us?


Hopefully you'll go to town on those damned SRT-4's.

 

hmmmm.....JBP is only a 30min drive for me and with Mev on vacation maybe I'll break in a switch motors

Looks good though, can't wait to see the dyno results!!

 

As a fellow canuck i must say you represent our country very well!
and as a fellow cobalt s/c owner very proud

 

Thanks for all the words of encouragement guys.
I am looking forward to when the car gets to lineup at the track. I was at our local track last night and there were some quick cars and trucks. Watching them race was both fun and hard because I have to wait a bit longer and the desire to race just kept growing.


The engine is still in pieces so won't work so good for you Is Spooner in Vancouver?

Matty says I am dreaming if I think I could ever keep up to his Mustang. As for the bowties they are painted red. I am not sure if I am going to shave it but if so I will let you know first.

 

I am going to do the cage this winter if Gary is available. So it will be track legal. And some slicks. Shall we make it interesting?? A few $$$ on the line???

 

man you are doing that car up right. keep up the good work

 

Yes, very few. I saw some outlaw mustangs last night and I am thinking you would have enjoyed running against them.

 

Was Dal out there with his twin turbo? He runs 7's last I heard.

 

No sevens on anything last night. The fastest time of the night was about 9.38.

 

Victory, how come you had the cage custom made? There is one available for the cobalt

Because I apparently missed that thread sort of like the transmission complete w\lsd cheaper (by lots) than I paid for my lsd+ installation. Now I need to go to their website and see what that cost me. Hopefully it's not chromemoly, then I can feel better.

 

dude that is some crazy ****

looks good

i forgot to ask what is that red bar

 

That is the TorqueForward rear support bar.http://www.torqueforward.com/page2.html

 

Are you getting close to finishing the beast?

 

does that bar bolt right on or do u need to drill holes
