Fall photos of my GS
 
Soo we've been having some nice weather here in good ol' NEPA, so I decided to snap a few photos of the GS after I detailed her. Enjoy!

Thanks!

Yeah, the interior is a super nice place to be.

The steering wheel has a fantastic feel, and the seats hug me as well as my Recaro's did.

Snail_SS 10-13-2016 01:29 PM

Can't blame you for trading in the balt staged, that GS is so clean!!!!

The battery's in the front? pfft, lame. #datweightdistro

Probably didn't want old people writing letters because they can't find their battery after it died from leaving talk radio on too long after stopping the car to watch the ducks at the pond. I guess it's a good call.

Staged, what food do you prefer to give the ducks? I see the pond in the background, so I put two and two together.

Better get those eyes checked old man!

Looking good man, those gs's are really nice cars to drive. I would have had to get a manual though.

I wanted the A6 because it's actually a good deal quicker than the manual.

It has a nice manual mode where you can shift it, but it's still weird for me not having the clutch, so I haven't used it much yet.

07MetallicSC 10-13-2016 04:51 PM

how is the manual mode? my wifes is delayed horribly in her terrain.

car looks good bud!

exninja 10-13-2016 06:15 PM

I wonder if that cover fits on my engine.

I feel like you ignored my question.

Thanks man.

You cant go reving out 1st like you can in the Cobalts due to some delay, but if you shift at 5500 rpm or so it will up shift to 2nd right before the 6500 rpm limiter. The rest of the shifts are very quick and spot on.

Quickest 1/4 mile times in the A6 were performed using manual mode.

My wife has an equinox (chevys terrain), and I only shift that manually during snow events and slippery roads. It def lags.

The A6 in the GS is entirely different transmission. It's an Aisin AF40.

I don't see why it wouldn't. Technically the same engine.

i bet you can change those shift points and get those shift times down a bunch with HPT, if you have the T76 tcm. I think you do.

should of just got a VW with a DSG lmao

GS mode adjusts the shift points in stock form. Good enough for me.

VW?!? :barf:

My '01 LeSabre has the battery under the back seat. Do you know how long it took me to find that shit!? :cussing: Damn you Buick!

I used to like the 20's, but I really like 19's now.

They are lighter to.

Warning you now staged- the inside door handles chrome tape peels just like the Cobalt's did....

07blackg5 10-14-2016 04:56 PM

Seems like he didn't go that far off then :lol:

Jacque8080 10-15-2016 08:49 AM

Right. I thought that we were going to see fall photos of my G5. Where is the G5....

The pics look good man. Do you have a pic with the engine hat off? The plastic makes it look like it has long intake manifold runners underneath.

Also, do you have any pics of the HiPer strut? I wonder if I could adapt those to the Cobalt....
