just do intake header downpipe and exaust and it will help alot with gas mileage

 

Nick Abud... did you graduate in 2004? The name sounds familiar. I graduted from Millard West in 05'.

For anyone that cares I started my retrofit project for my headlights. I had a spare set that I ripped open and ordered a set of e46 bi-xenon projectors that should be here this week. While I have the lenses off I am going to sand it down and paint them all OEM black and clear coat them to match the car.

The GT badges sounds stupid, but I guess if you drove a pontiac Pursuit it would make more sense.

 

I know who you are referring to, but I am not Nick Abud. I am Nick Stone, I graduated in 04 from Millard North.

 

Sweet, should post some pics. I'm really tempted to start buying some stuff to do that too. Ive read several posts on them i think its pretty tight. Maybe it will turn into my winter project or something. Just been watching ebay for some deals on the parts. What parts are u using beside the e46s and from where?

 

id have to see how your headlights turn out... anyone around here going to build there cars like i am????

id especially like to see a built 2.4

 

I used e46 Bixenon Projectors, Phillips 5000k D2S Bulbs, Denzo Slim Line Ballasts (Out of a Lexus IS 300), and then the wiring harness I am working on now.

I worked on it tonight a lot, and got the projector on the driver side remounted and aimed correctly. Burned through quite a few dremel bits though, so I will have to pick more of them up and shorter screws. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought 6" threaded steel.

I got the projectors and ballasts off ebay from a reputable seller, and the bulbs from hidplanet.com


I will have pictures posted as soon as I get the passenger side projector mounted.

 

Oh by the way, I did pick up my Orange Cobalt SS today. So I officially now own one.

 

one of the guys at work (home depot 144th) told me that someone with a silver ss/sc tried to get into my car yesterday cuz he thought it was his... but he was parked a few down, any of you?

 

welcome to the club

congrats

 

nope it wasnt me...

i have the yellow ss/sc with the messed up rear bumper

my cashier from work rear ended me in our parking lot lol

luckily insurance will fix my beuty

anyone come into council bluffs much???

 

I am almost never in Council Bluffs, but I do work as an intern downtown, so 3 days a week I am a minute away.

 

I think I saw nick on West center, just past 84th about 3 oclock on sunday.. H&H Plates and an intrasit sticker was the give away.

 

Yeah, I was headed back to school for some dumb test. I really need to get used to this car. Switching from an auto to a manual is tough work when you haven't driven one in 3 years.

 

You know if theres much difference between the Bosch E46 and the hella e55? size?

 

There has said to be a slight better light output out of the e55's, although I think you wouldn't know unless you tried both. It's still a HUGE improvement from stock.

Injury Update:
I was realized to go back to work on Thursday, however it hurts like hell. I was informed that I also am eligable for disability. Meaning a disability settlement might not be too far off.

 

Man, I hope that gets better quickly =/

 

hey nick... when u gonna throw a cai on your car???

once u do you will love smashing it under overpasses

you guys heard the sc whine yet???

 

Probably as soon as I get my rebates. Most of the mods are going to come in spring though. I am going to get the stage 2 and exhaust in spring at least.

 

A yellow SS/SC was at OC on 144th and Center on Sat. night. My friends thought it was my car and were surprised I wasn't off work yet. And my name is Jason, so, nope, not me.

 

besides you and me ive seen atleast 2 more yellow ss/scs running around here....

u on ne street scene much????

and do u go race your car any?
