Almost as bad as the 2005 eclipses the had trying to mimic the fast and the furious.
Basically replaced the seats with racing seats put underglow on the car and a matching vinyl on the sides of the car. ( matched the underglow colour) that and extra Crome rims.
Absolutely no performance mods.
Anyone remember when Vickar Mitsubishi made like 5 of these and started selling them at world of wheels? Charged like 10,000 extra for it..

well lets see if I can wake this thread up a smidge....
I’m posting up because I’m going to be in town for two out of the next three weekends.
I’m going to be in town (and likely free to meet up) on the evening of the 7th, as well as 20/21st…
I last lived in Winnipeg around 95-96;
There used to be some action to watch (Saturday night?) on the dump road(s);
it was a rotating thing to keep “unwanteds” out of the loop…
Anyone care to PM me if any of this is still happening?
I'm always on the hunt for spare tires (either 225/40/18 or 235/40/18), if anyone has any leads...
and even though I already have a nearly perfect Arrival Blue spoilerless trunklid, I am interested in a Rally Yellow one - any leads?? - anyone interested in maybe a partial trade??
and on a related note, I take it Kijiji is more popular than Craigslist in Winnipeg - is this correct??
- or is there another online classified that is more popular locally?
EDIT:
I just noticed some postings about "VIU" something or other inspections - anyone care to clue me in on what's going on over there??
(from the little bit I read here and elsewhere, it seems as though I maybe left MB at a good time!?)

seriously???
just over 24 hours and NO ONE has posted anything???
wow... maybe this section is a little more dead than I thought!?
ok, let me try with a new one;
if I was to want to see if any yard has a 2005-2009 spoilerless trunklid from a Rally Yellow Cobalt, are there any yards anyone would suggest I phone?
As I seem to recall, there was a pick your part type yard, and H&R auto wrecking (dismantler??), as well as (back then it was my favorite) Midnite Autowrecking (another self serve yard) all in the NE - not too far from Kitchen Kraft...
Has anything changed there??

oh?
I'm not going to need to donate body parts or first born to cover the cost am I?
I'm shortly going to have a stage 1 refalsh (bought the kit a couple months ago) - and if I did an afterarket tune, I would require the stock ECM be left alone...

I think you are mistaken about the MAP sensor upgrade.
I can go ahead and show you when your in town how my car reads above 23 PSI, i can also show you the difference between 30 PSI and 23 PSI. i can also show you how to get full warranty with a after market tune ontop of that i can show you how to save yourself 500 dollars.
Let me know

You can try a place called action auto. It's not a self pick yard but they have a computerized inventory with tons of stuff. I would be down for a meet!
If anyone cares, there is a 09 lnf cobalt up for grabs at next Wednesdays autopac salvage auction. Red coupe hit hard on drivers quarter with an irrepairable status.
JORDAN - can you do the trifecta stage 3 ??? Let me know asap iwanna get a tune on this beeotch
