now before i even say what it is that im thinking i want to remind everyone that there is no crime in exercising the mind....i was hoping that this could be a thread in which the scrambled ideas of the poor and misguided could be put on paper so we could all enjoy the ideas that each other come up with. i guess you could call it a fantasy build thread


my first idea was if the cobalt ss/sc's lsj was mounted in the rear, it would be rear wheel drive and plus plenty of room for twin turbos...thoughts? oh and feel free to expand on my idea

 

cobalt ss/sc with the corvette zr1 supercharged engine swap, AWD. lol would be nice. but honestly i wish i could have the ss/sc with a 76mm turbo,AWD, dual exhaust,intercooler (obviously),hoozers on all 4s,1.5" drop.

 

i thought that awd would be awesome but i dont like the power loss that comes with it. but it is still pretty cool idea.

 

1950 Honda Civic Hatch w/ a B2000 swap & a 9 G twinturboed & supercharged!

 

on a cobalt?

le5, typical short block build, aiming for 12ish to 1 compression, wild cams, long tube headers and a 6 speed gear box.

1950?

 

04 dodge neon with a rb26dett motor and tranny with 2 gt35r turbo's

 

This comes to mind:

 

i was kinda leaning toward cobalt ideas...i was hoping that it might inspire someone

 

My balt is sitting pretty at the moment with a 2" ( i think from the sportlines ) drop, rims, the 2.4L VVT turbo kit (from HAHN).

The only main thing for me now is my tranny.

I ran it the other day and hit a whopping 13.584 @ 104

I'm really shooting for the high 11's, low 12's. and be daily driven.

Car has 34k miles on it, so I got time to play with it still.

 

Fully built and reliable LSJ with harrop TVS supercharger and nicely done exterior/interior putting out 450-500fwp with the capability of running 12's and almost 11's.

 

As for the fantasy engine build, see my thread

I would then want to rotate the engine 90 degrees, and install a solstice drivetrain

 

by the way I really like this thread. It lets you see what others think about doing. It also exspress the imagination. I know theres some more ideas. Come on guys

 

what he said!

 

For a Cobalt...

My car + its current mods + custom drilled 20" black/polished lip 5-zigen Hyper 5ZR's, full AUTHENTIC Bomex bodykit, OEM style cf hood, cf trunk, cf fuel door (ebay has them, and yes they're legit), cf b-pillar covers, black housing headlights + Vision 6000K HID kit, Modern Performance/BC coilovers, SSBC front/rear big brake kits, CA stainless steel brake lines, JBP tri-flow cams, full JBP valve train, port/polished cylinder header, 3 angle valve job, big bore tb, ImpulseBaller cf dash trim, ImpulseBaller custom cf sub enclosure in trunk w/ some kinda crazy stereo, Aeroforce interceptor gauge + CA column mount pod, powercoated valve cover.......ummm.......

lol, yeah, so thats my crazy "if I ever get rich and decided to retire my car into a show car" idea. Fourtunantely for my wallet, my only plans I REALLY have left for the SS is tint, tuning, camber correction kit, install my trans mount bushings, drag radials and some Modern Performance floor matts, lol.

 

i was thinking about doing a peterbuilt engine swap, throwing some mickey thompsons on that bitch, then head up to the county fair and do some tractor pulls. anyone inspired?

 

How about a balt with this motor. It's Light and might fit under the hood. This small v-8 is a perfect fit for the balt. Lets remember it's 800hp, so we need to shift to rear wheel drive. http://www.indycar.com/tech/engines.php

This will turn some heads at the stop light

 

I would like the TVS, cams, coil-overs, wheels, that concept widebody kit from gm, suncoast hood, reforged internals, and a trans that can handle the full potential of that sc.... now if you will excuse me, I need to go scratch some lotto tickets

 

c'mon is that it...no one else...i know someone else has dreams that are bigger than their bank accounts

 

My dreams are bigger than my account. I just takes time to save up. Patience is all you need to do the craziest build you can imagine

 

dream build:
My car, turbocharged, dropped, full Header,DP, exhaust, CAI, Konig 18" rims, custom paint job, shorty antenna, tinted, tuned, mounts, full non-riced body kit, suspension, and even a controllable awd conversion.

 

how do you guys think the coupe would look as a drop top

 

all you need is a balt and a chainsaw. I think it would look good. Give it a try and post some pics.

 

let us know how that turns out
