i'll probably be at bass pro in the mustang since the cobalt isn't drivable till the new header/dp gets here. only thing i have going on is washing/waxing the stang and working on my bike

Well I was thinking about heading out to BPS it all would have depended on what the wife thought, but I forgot that tonight I'm headed to a buddies house.

Connor as as it looks now we can get together next saturday or sunday which ever day is better for you... Also whats your Idea that you have so I can get anything we may need

Also just met Craig GPZRider96 we live in the same apartments... kinda random... I looked over and was like who is this dude walking over to me... then he asked about the car so i knew he was a cobalt guy... lol

running a longer bolt with a similar diameter and either bolting it down with 2 nuts, or a lock washer and a nut.

Good seeing you again, anything more to elaborate on the "lol" driving that beast I'm questioning it?

Ha, I definitely had a good time, it was relaxing and pretty chill tonight.

Thanks to Joe for getting out on the road today and re-tuning .

Hey, color tastes aside...

Good to see those who made it out last night!

Good deal on the pizza... (thanks to J. Schulte's suggestion for a good deal!)... (sorry, Joe for the MMBT incident, too! )

Good time at Bass Pro, too.

Suggestion: Let's get it down for a Colonial Parkway cruise soon and maybe eat at Pierce's BBQ soon while fall is still good. Once you guys that like to take some good pics see the opportunities along the PKWY, you'll be glad we did it!

Steve, I actually have seen that one in person and talked to a GM engineer about it, too.
They installed a ST2 LSJ in it. I liked the basic car, but the interior (mostly green w/ a front bench seat, didn't light my fire. Neat car overall, though.

Soon to be famous quotes....

Random question... anywhere... anytime...

What is your best mod?

I'd be down once I get the ss back up & running. should be sometime later this week. the header/dp is supposed to get here on the 10th, so shortly after that I should be up and running again. it was definitely good seeing everyone again. The guy at the end with the gt500 was pretty cool. They were giving him **** because apparently one of his friends has a cts-v and was saying he beat him (apparently he didn't). He had a few things done to it (pulley, tune, headers, gt500KR exhaust, etc...) so i'm sure the caddy didn't pull. Whatever. Anyways yea, had a good time lol

I was gunna go to that show... but i figured i have all his CDs. My buddy shannon said i didn't miss much and that he was dissapointed, becase he used stuff from his CDs and not new stuff. kinda glad i didn't spend the money on it

The bolt is stripped but when we get it out I'm sure we can match it up to a similar one... I'm an aut parts store or LOWEs or Home Depot will have one.

why the **** is mobile 1 oil so expensive now... i used to be able to get 5 quarts for $25, now i look online and see prices like $40 WTF

I just hit 50,000 miles yesterday. I'm due for an oil change, and i guess I'll go ahead and change the air filter and spark plugs.

I just checked autozone and advanced auto. they sell it for about 25ish too. As for the $40 price i stated that was from amazon.com... i didn't realize it...


Anyone have sugestions on what spark plugs i should get?
