can't commit to a sunday meet yet, I'll have to see how the rest of the week goes. Barry who makes your 2.9 I'm thinking of ordering the zzp 2.9 that fits the GM hub.

Fidget, I just saw your sig, when the hell did you get dyno'd I've been thinking about checking out that new place on victoria, but i hear it's kind of crappy. If I decide to get the 2.9 I will probably go there and get it dyno'd before and after just to see what the actual gains are
You know it buddy, you can never have too much power, just not enough traction

Jeff I bought my 2.9 form Nate on ss.net. I think you should buy the pulley that looks exactly like the stage 2. I'm not sure who has that one. But if you want Nate's here's a link....http://cgi.ebay.ca/Chevy-Cobalt-SS-S...QQcmdZViewItem

Add one more happy SS/SC owner to the K-W area! I just bought mine at Schlueter's in Feb. This is my first car with a manual tranny. I picked it up on a friday night at 5pm. That was an experience! (Rush hour traffic). I was sweating like crazy trying to make it from one stop light to the next! Anyway, my shifting is getting pretty smooth now. I went for the laser blue metalic. I haven't made any power mods yet, but I upgraded the sound system. It turned into a pretty massive project. I did everything myself. I pulled out the seats and carpeting and covered the floor with Dynamat to reduce road and exhaust noise and reduce vibrations from my JL Audio 10w6 sub. I also did the trunk floor. I upgraded the front and rear speakers to Infinity Kappa's. (6.5" components up front and 6 by 9's in rear deck). I used the amps I had in my Sunfire (I totaled it this winter). I have an Alpine MRD-M500 for the sub. It puts out about 570 watts RMS. And for the mids and highs I have an Alpine MRV-F340 4 channel. It puts out 65 watts RMS/channel. I finished it off with an older Alpine head unit and in dash 9 band equalizer. THIS SYSTEM PLAYS CLEAN AND TIGHT AS LOUD AS I CAN STAND IT. I passed another Laser Blue SS/SC at the St. Jacobs roundabout. Was it any of you guys? I might stop by the Powerline electronics show in Guelph on June 9. Maybe I'll see you guys there!

Welcome Mr. REVO!! And congrats on the new purchase! Wasn't me you passed at the market i have arrival blue. Maybe it was Fidget or possibly Ray they both have laser blue, Ray has recaro's sticker on his front bumper.
Sound like you got a nice little sound system, I'm just stock on the sound but I got a couple of engine mods! woot woot!
We'll see at some local meets here I hope!
So are we up for a Sunday meet or what guys???

Welcome to the Site/Enthusiast group Revomad1.
We are hoping to get a meet together soon - next week perhaps.
When I first got the car it made me a little nervous shifting as well. Wait until you break your baby in and then you'll be able to start getting some power out of it.
PS FOR SUNDAY
I would like to meet but I might be in Toronto for part of the day. Sunday evening would work well for me cause I'll be back by then. Maybe we could grab some dinner this time?

You know folks, you are more than welcome to use the Ontario based Cobalt website to arrange meets, and such. Who knows, someone there may want to come out too!

Come on out, announce your meets, and if they are on a weekly basis, they become a Sticky post on the boards, so they can't be missed by newcomers.

How do I "subscribe" to this thread so I can get e-mail notifications when there are new posts?
Never mind! I answered my own question!

I might be in, I want to see if I can find some BRK7E's today and install them and maybe paint that little cover. I'll check back on here later to see what's going down.
#523
yeah I was going to use brake paint, but I want to put a clearcote on it as well do they make high temp clear? Guess I'll find out
Destructo I really want to see how your headlights turned out, any chance of you giving me a hand doing this if I like what I see?
