yeah you're off serving our country and ****, wtf is up with that? lol...

when are you coming back?

 

Adam nice meeting you man, had a good time at the meet, maybe next time we can plan something a little more local and smaller crowd. Us Bama peps have to stick together

 

we need to have a meet here close for us locals so we dont have to drive to tn

 

yeah nice meeting you too, no doubt about the Bama part... as I mentioned to Paul(HHR) at the meet tonight, some us on the the other Cobalt forum, that we in this topic post on, had mentioned possibly doing a meet in April at the Indy race at the Barber Motorsports Park... its only $50 for the Sunday pass(the main race)... that isn't TOO expensive and would give us something to do, not just stand around in a circle for 4 hours, lol

I'm planning on going to the race anyway, so it'd be a great opportunity for us to all meet up and have some entertainment as well...

also its not the best of ideas to have 50 people on the interstate and not have people in the back of the pack able to give directions for people not familiar with the area, we learned that tonight at this meet, lol... guy from Florida got lost in Nashville, lol

 

That sounds like a good place for a meet. And if its on sunday i can go cuz i work on sat cuz i work at a motorcycle shop i know it might be hard for others to make it on sunday, but i think the indy race at barbers sounds good. And like you said it would give us something else to do besides stand around.

 

how much is it worth to you...and i would need a weekend to do it...

 

I got my tires and hood liner on today... will post pics tomorrow...

next mod is going to be the Trfiecta tune... plan on getting it in the next few weeks, have some medical bills coming in and don't really know how good my insurance is(1st time using it for real) so kind of gun shy until I get them out of the way... shouldn't be too bad though, insurance should cover most of it... but still want to wait for sure and not drop the money in a tune and getting my wheels dipped then get hit with $1000 in medical bills, lol

 

Only mods I got left to do that I want is a clutch/flywheel upgrade, turbo wheel upgrade and re-tune (about $2.5k just for those). Probably shoot for the end of June to have the turbo out and sent off. Yes I know a whole new turbo set up will give more power, but my goal is to have a tune and mods that can either be switched back to factory and/or look stock for warranty work. Trying to walk that fine line

 

here is the new stance and hood liner:







nice being able to hook up again, lol... plan on hitting the track again in mid-March when it opens again, even though all we have is the 1/8th aka. redneck racing... yeah I trade marked that

HHRSSouth knows all about that

 

have a 2.9 pulley for sale any takers

 

demodding car or going smaller?


that last pic also shows how dark my tail lights really are, was bright enough I didn't have to use the flash on my camera today(which has lightened them up in the past)

 

went a deferent way, the pulley was never used

 

should be easy enough to get rid of, as that is one of the 1st pullies used when lightly modding a S/C cobalt, kind of like the 3.5" pulley used to be with the GTP grand prix, I sold mine in a matter of hours of putting it up for sale.... I don't know of anyone with a s/c looking to mod but a couple of the guys here have them(or did) and some of them don't have much done to their cars

 

i have the zzp stage 3

 

plan making a track day anytime soon? i've been wanting to run mine through the 1/4, i'm sure Paul would be down

 

i have been wanting to go for a wile I haven’t went since I got my cobalt, when I went the track sucked and I spun to third

 

justin i never though i would see the day that you would post on here lol

 

whats up BamaBoy...id be up for a track day soon...my turbo hatch should be running sunday :-)

 

im comeing home soon thats whats up

 

let me know when you get back in town

 

yea things change

 

-----
sorry the pics suck so bad....and the car is dirty....

josh hit me up when you get a vehicle and we will do your interior in something like this...

 

yea..... things like that are not my cup of tea

 

well update on the hatch....got it running waiting to get the exhaust welded so i can take her down the road

 

Nice, I'm about to wrap up my turbo project also within the next month. Gonna try and pull the trans this week sometime and stick in a new pivot ball and fork and see if that helps with the super low engagement I have right now with the Act 2100 PP. Sent my injectors off to witchhunter performance to have them tested & flow matched. Then all I have left is bolting stuff on, intercooler pipes and tuning. Most expensive thing I have left is the exhaust system.

By the way what are you using for tuning on the Honda?
