Been a while...the cobalt is all grown up
 
Haha still have it, but its baby sister is following in its footsteps

Had to add some purple to this thing

New calipers, rotors, and pads. Calipers were powdercoated.

soundjunky 07-22-2014 06:03 PM

I was marginally confused...

saw the purple calipers, and was thinking "ok..."

Then I saw the picture of you working on your car, and thought "who's posting up of their girl working on their car?"

Then I looked at the OP's name...

Oh!

ha-ha!

Wow, you still around? - and still working on your own car to boot?!?!

:lol:

nobody2u 07-22-2014 06:11 PM

Your Z06 is awesome, jelly. Anything done to the engine or suspension?

Mr Mall Cop 07-22-2014 08:07 PM

Car looks good with the purple add on

slapbetcommissioner 07-22-2014 08:16 PM

Love it. You need a picture of them together. One of my favorite Balts, with all the purple additions. Good to see the vette is following suit.

63 Nova SS 07-22-2014 08:43 PM

thought you were gone for good. Nice additions, like how you are following suit with the vette. Nice to see gals not afraid to get dirty, keep up the good work.

Spawne32 07-22-2014 09:59 PM

Kahless 07-23-2014 10:56 AM

Rissa 07-23-2014 12:13 PM

you still talk to reign??? i havent seen him around in ages. hell he stopped comin around before you left.

Whitnith 07-23-2014 09:08 PM

Front pads have plenty of life and the rotors aren't getting hot enough to play connect the dots with all those holes.

Poor Z06 not being used like it should be...

mexi_loco 07-23-2014 09:14 PM

i need to change my shorts...

footballplaya3k 07-23-2014 09:31 PM

There was uneven wear on the rotors, brake pedal was soft and pulsating, so decided to change everything so that it's good for track events in September and October. This isn't like tracking a cobalt, a set of tires for this car costs as much as a full suspension set up for a cobalt lol so makes it kinda difficult to take it to everything I would want to.

Pitbull2o08 07-24-2014 02:26 AM

Where are you at in SoCal? I'm doing a purple/silver theme with my G5. Maybe we can get coffee.

SalvageBaltSS 07-24-2014 02:39 AM

Looks great Rissa! Put some jack stands in the back also, ive had a close call working on my dads Corvette having the jack under the diff just like you have it.

Anywho, z06 looks awesome! :cssNET:

Are you running street tires or slicks at the track? My friends have a business where they ell mainly Corvette sized racing slicks for farrrrr below the price of a suspension set up. Let me know if you want their info, they are good people to talk to.

I will eventually run slicks but I need a set of wheels for those -_- For the time being I'm just wearing out these Michelins lol. I would like their info though for future purchase. Thank you! :)
