Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. It's closure so I can spend my time and efforts on something more worth it. 200hp bug will put even corvettes to shame. I think I'll focus on that instead.

 

Did my last(?) photo shoot of it. Because my Fiesta is a piece of crap and doesn't deserve this

 

Nice pic lol

 

Thanks. If it was insured I'd turn the flamethrower the other way

 

Bad ass pic!

 

Lol I believe you

 

Just finished putting in an exedy stage 1 clutch. Broke quite a few parts but somehow managed to have spares of everything I needed.

 

That's not how it's supposed to go....

 

I finally changed out all four rotors to the maxbrakes set I bought a while back. What a night and day difference in braking. I knew my old rotors were warped but damn these are smoooooth.

 

Mine are due for replacement soon, too. A little too much wobble for my taste.

 

Replaced the rack and steering shaft. Fun fun.

 

That's my next project - intermediate shaft and the suspension. I still need to buy the struts, but getting the FE5 kit.

...and I need to email Gloria for the Powell XXX rear sway bar, although I could just drive to his shop

 

Make sure to center your new rack before you put it in. I highly recommend the Dorman steering shaft. It's a beast in comparison to the stocker.

 

It's clean

 

Actually, Dorman was the one I bought from RockAuto. I have Dorman control arms after a busted the OEM one (left) from an unavoidable pothole... But I think those were consider FE3 for whatever reason.

 

200k miles, ***** gonna break. I never claimed to be a good mechanic.

 

Cobalt #1. Swapped Transmission mount. Still clunks when I push the clutch in and shift gears.

Cobalt #2. Oil change and new spark plugs. Replaced passenger side mirror and got a new spare.

 

Did you check the rear mount? Give how trashed the front was I wouldn't be surprised is the rear is gonzo too

 

nah i will this weekend.

 

drove my coupe this week. .75 of a mile, it was thrilling

 

No *****

 

But idled it for 30mins?

 

do a burnout

 

prob about that. lol

I don't beat on this car. Different story if it was the sedan. lol

 

Got into boost in town just so I could let off near a few people and scare the crap out of them with the "kicking a dog" bpv sound. Never gets old.
