For the Photos, I give a big thanks to my buddies Luke and Steve!

 

Also not listed is my HP Tuners Cable and a brand new pair of Black/Red DR-33 17x7.5s 45mm offset that clear the brembos and come with the car. I bought them for Drag Radials. Thats over $700 alone.

 

glws man. i think i read in a thread you wanna get a 5.0, if so, good choice

 

Thanks man. Yeah, I wanna change platforms to RWD.

 

Am I missing the mileage?

Nice car

 

Sorry, 37,000 miles on the car itself which isn't a whole lot. 3500 on the new engine. 1500 on the ZZP Trans.

 

Just so everyone knows this car has never blown an engine. The stock engine blew a headgasket as well which was due to no instructions being sent by ZZP for the kit so the boost solenoid was routed as a manual boost controller which was incorrect. Since they have updated their site with instructions. I bought their engine due to it being girdled for better headgasket sealing. No you will not be able to find a faster car for this price. I am taking a huge loss. Nothing else is wrong with the car other than small things like the bumper cover has a small crack from unloading off the trailer at ZZP and its missing the fuse box terminal cover which is known for breaking off from where I have jumped multiple cars that needed help because I'm just that nice. Car has mainly only been driven on weekends and seen very little winter as I have a Silverado for that. Anything that has broken with the car has been replaced and after the headgasket is on the car I will be willing to let anyone drive the car as long as you only go wot on the interstate with no cars around. It is a very controllable car with virtually no torque steer. As I put in the OP the price is just a starting price. I am very flexible but please don't offer me something stupid like 13k. I'll just take it to the dealer if thats the case. Since most of the mods the car has been mainly a weekend/show car. I am wanting to get something V8 and rwd so I can make a lot more power with the same reliability. It hasn't been tracked much. Mostly been a street car with very few runs on it. On the stock block and turbo the car was dded for about 8000 miles. Don't get the wrong idea, its an awesome car. I really don't want to get rid of it but its just going to depreciate more and I'll end up with a sitting pile of money. Almost all mods were done to replace defective parts such as the poorly designed 1st revision MPx intercooler, the hahn chargepiping(known to rub on EVERYTHING as it has no secure point), the trans was replaced due to a bad input shaft seal(I didn't even technically break it like multiple other owners!), the clutch was replaced with a 6 puck clutchmasters which was ruined when the input shaft seal went and now has a ZZP S4, the brakes are new which everyone knows are like a $180 set of brakes for the front, rears are still like new, tires are like new but due to the car spinning til 110 they're about 3/4 depth, the foglights are 4300k hids, the turbo kit was put on due to a bad factory turbo so I thought I'd grab something a bit tougher that wouldn't be pushed to its max efficiency range to be making 375-400hp, I will post pics of the engine bay as soon as the headgasket is replaced as I do not have any updated pics with the 5th injector setup and a few rerouted wires and boost lines which makes the setup much cleaner...,

 

bump for a good guy and a beast of a car

 

^^Thanks man!

The car has been also raised since I had it. It was barely tucking the tires with still a lot of adjustment left before I raised it. I raised it due to intercooler clearance issues on an incline which it can still scrape being only this low but atleast you won't rip the intercooler off. If you want to make it a show car this is a prime candidate which can win in every category with more appearance mods. I can also include the original 93 tune and disconnect the 5th injector so you can run 93 but you will not make the power E85 can make. Max of 450-460whp on this turbo. Also another reason I am getting rid of the car is I had it built in hope of ZZP coming up with a solution for the phasers but it seems like it may be a few more years before that. I see no reason why this car couldn't rev to 8.5k+ when the tuning issue is resolved which could be any year and means you can make much much more power on a bigger turbo and still have a long powerband.

 

good luck man! your car is badass and good price too, dont let anyone lowball you

 

^^Thanks man! There's no reason this car can't be just as powerful as ScytheSnake's car with a larger turbo and more aggressive tune. His car is pretty well even with a 700whp GTR with the S259ET.

 

You had a FCOTM thread and didn't win? That's surprising. This car has to be one of the top ten best Cobalts on the planet. Hope it sells and you get a good price. Those new 5.0s are really really nice. Just don't hate on the Cobalt too much after you get one.

You probably already thought of this but you may be able to make a few grand extra by going back to stock, selling the aftermarket parts and then trading the car in or selling it stock.

Car is beautiful and tastefully modded. Total sleeper.

 

Defenitaly worth the price

 

I want

 

this is a very nice cobalt...props to you

 

damnn clean as f*ck, GL

 

love this car, hope it goes to a good owner

 

i wish i could afford this, this is beautiful.

 

Thinking about keeping it a bit longer....had some great offers so far though.

 

Only 10k owed. Paid 6500 cash for part of the 19.5k so I never did owe a whole lot. Mainly took out a loan to build credit.

 

Bump, price drop 16,500! Come test drive it, you'll fall in love! You can daily this ride. Its back on 93 and runs amazing! Still everything to run e85 on the car including tune. New clutch, tob, clutch pipe, brakes, entire fueling system, k&n dry charger(the maf relocate is notorious for collecting moisture, this stops it and the misfires on humid days!). You can tell by the pics I have been driving the car!
I'll fully detail the car again for anyone interested. It still looks and smells new as you can see I always ran the rubber floor mats of course unless I was showing the car.

Here's more pics!






Also note the pics were taken last minute at a buddy's garage when someone on Mautofied texted me so no that is not where I live, or where the car is stored, lol. His boss didn't believe there was a car this powerful with the name Cobalt!

 

Also car comes with Nitto NT05R 275/45 17 Drag Radials on new 17" Drag DR-33 Black wheels which look pretty good on the car and I'll post a pic later of it with them on!

 

Bump, probably about to be sold 1k under book without the drag radials. Guy is meeting me at the bank tomorrow with $13875 after driving it. If you can beat it come get it.

 

if this was my car and i was selling it i would buy a stock motor and swap it in and part out or sell the built motor, get it as close to stock as possible before selling.

 

Car is sold. Mods, you can delete the thread.
