So I am wanting to buy an ss because I am tired of my old ls sedan being slower then my minivan. I want to stay in the cobalt community and get an SS/TC but my problem is that I dont know anything about cars at all. Is this going to be a big problem for me? It seems like most peoplee on here are very knowledgable about their cars and I am far that. I know it depends on the car but am I going to be running into a lot of problems that I can not fix on my own and not be worth buying the car?

 

You just answered your own question. You know how to drive (maybe) what else do you need to know? You will learn stuff by modding/fixing the car, just have someone that has done it before to help you.

 

Honestly man just start reading up around the forum in the TC section. You will start to learn alot. Honestly if you keep the car stock with mild bolt ons you shouldnt need to worry about too much. The only time you need to know a ton is when you start modding heavy. That when you want to know how to diagnose problems that will occur

 

dont think i will be modding the car very heavy. just a little modded from stock is the plan. probably just exhaust and CAI and little stuff

 

Hinestly man as long as you are willing to learn there are people on here that are willing to teach you things. Basic bolt ons like a K&N SRI and exhaust is very easy.

 

Alright that is what i was wondering lol. just need to sell my ls sedan and get a SS sedan.

 

if you buy another cobalt just kill yourself

 

Haha I knew there was going to be one of you guys chiming in saying you hate you cobalt.

 

i dont own a cobalt but im trying to give some good advice

 

hey hey, i went from a cobalt to another cobalt. I love these little cars for some god awful reason even though they are full of little quirks xD

and to op, like everyone else said, if your willing to learn you'll be fine. Personally I know cars and how to work on them, but my TC is my first F/I car so its kinda like learning all over again

 

 

also went from an LT to an SS.......... bang for the buck on these cars is hard to turn down for the money... the shitty interior isnt hard to, but whatev's I'll deal with it haha

 

Give good advise? A cobalt is a fun car to have, there is no need to knock it. But I forgot you drive a c6 now so ur a badass GTFO...and before you say I know nothing, I own a fully built c5 so I know how much fun a Vette is, but still love my Cobalt

 

do you race?

 

No he drives a slow c5 not a c6

 

******* newb take a look at my sig

 

meant to type c5 STFU, guys asking for advise, not a tool who bought a vette and thinks he's a badass

 

what does that have to do with anything?

 

Umad?

 

LMAO you clearly have no clue both of my cobalts would have raped yours. So how about you STFU

 

Perfectly fine, people bash this forum because guys like you and blackbeast! that come in threads and clutter it with useless info. Guys asking for help, if you can't help with that then don't comment on it...pretty simple

 

Nevermind its your first F.I. car my bad

 

Read my first post retard.

 

I honestly could care less as to what your Cobalt's would do. This entire topic has nothing to do with that haha. The kid is asking if you have to be mechanically inclined to have a SS/TC and you come in saying if he gets a Cobalt he might as well kill himself, you my friend are an idiot

 

I gave the best advise he's gonna hear
