um, probably just looks, not too much to the engine. I want to be a cop, but gotta wait till im 20.5 yrs. They make good money, so i think im eventually gonna buy an ss. But we'lll see

quick question for you SS guys.. How much do you guys pay for insurance?

sorry bro but I hate cops... now you have to fill us all in on why you want to be a pig? you don't get paid that well... didn't you see on the news the 2 seattle police officers that got ambushed while sitting in their car? the male officer was training a female and they were reviewing paperwork when their car got shot up killing him and wounding her. They are still looking for the people. Plus why do you want to enforce a bunch of unjust BS laws?
if you say you want to be a cop/detective and solve real crimes vs just catch speeders and **** with little kids smoking pot then it's cool with me.

lol well if it a cobalt speeding.. then of course im not gonna pull it over . They really do make good money though, i was looking at the salary rates. But yes, solving real crimes sounds good, im good at problem solving and putting things together . I know a few people that are cops/state patrol and they like it. So ill give it a try. And yes, i know some cops ******* suck and pull you over for dumb crap, but im not gonna be like that lol.

and whats so cool about the steering wheel? o_o

how much more could insurance be for you? better yet how much do you think it will be once you become a police officer? for training they do all sorts of driving training so I bet they will give you a fat discount on insurance if you don't go through who your employer goes through.

waste of time! the 2.2 is a good motor esp if you put rods and pistons into it! I am already faster than a stock tc and I have spent maybe 2000.00 on performance mods

my goal over winter is to get rods, pistons, pulley and full dyno tune on my car. I am looking for 300 with some more cooling mods. right now I just have a stock svt heat exchanger with a poopy street tune and I pull stock ss/sc's

rods are 400.00
so are pistons

average pricing but if you find someone on the forums that has them never used I have seen both go for under 300.00

a full bolt on turbo kit will cost roughly 3000.00 for something decent

a full sc conversion with taking your time and searching for parts via forums can be less than 1500.00 with tune I know cause I did it.

it's your goals! you do what you want. I wanted cheap reliable daily driver power.

definately not going out this weekend... weather report looks soooper nasty. it's already windy as hell and dumping buckets of rain here. They say this is the begining of a big storm. power outages and flooding for sure... Hope tom got his sand bags! they were giving them away for free in the auburn valley area. Also if you want a pet right now you can go to their humane society location and get a pet for dirt cheap right now cause they are waving all sorts of bs fees since they don't want to have to move them to higher ground :-(

lol I do business there! I am sure I have met him once or twice.. don't remember names cause I use all the south sound dealerships for parts. I call around and price shop and flat out tell ppl this is the best price I have found from dealership A I live in Tacoma what can you do for me. It's funny how many times they have been able to give me a better deal or just flat out had a part no one else did. Like a little over a month or two ago I bought a slave cylinder for my clutch there.

as for getting ahold of that guy I have not. He has my header back so as soon as I do I will let you know. Last week when he drove up to trade motor mounts and cash he said he was going to be busy the next two weeks with field training so I just assumed military and they can't use cell phones. He said either to send him a PM or he would give me a call when he was free. So I am just waiting for that call!

haha nice, well i just told my dad that you might be stopping by, but idk when, and im sure he'll give you a deal. But yeah, i wanna buy the coilovers! i sent him a pm, but no reply. But no rush as long as he has them lol, gives me time to save money :p. But the pistons and everything, is that from GM? or aftermarket?
