I posted a spotted thread a few threads down in this section. I remember, it was right infront of Hardees. I looked but I didnt recognize the balt. There was a black dude in a yellow one who waved at me the day before, had a body kit, rims, exhaust, lowered, ss/sc wing.
I talked to a guy in High Point that can do tunes last week that is on here. I think he said he was thinking about coming to the meet. I can try to get ahold of him: It'd be a nice way for him to make some xtra cash.
My brother is all into the Datsuns. He has an older 260 Z and my uncle has a 510 with right around 400 hp.
I think its against the rules, plus I don't have jack stands or anything like that. I'll be able to do it at work as soon as we get a lift though.
Yeh I have my drive way right now, but I got to have a garage. I plan on doing more modifications to the balt, and then MAYBE buying a used 240 or crx to tinker with, and a garage full of tools would be perfect for this. 70 bucks sucks man. You cant change yours in the condo complex, or is that against the rules?

LOL...yeh it can be rough. Move up to management, it's not AS bad.
Yeh...I would like to get the time and cash to do "a-spec" skyline...I just like the fact of having a 2700 LB RWD 4 or 6 cylinder with the boost screaming.
With a lift you will be able to do tons of fun stuff to the balt. I just change the oil in mine yesterday, and even with hydraulic jack and stands its still a PITA.

Hey, who's near Charlotte NC? I'm looking for a Cobalt to use as a test vehicle to design a template for a Rear Seat Delete kit, similar to the other cars we build them for (Mustangs, Mini Coopers, GTO's, etc).
If one of you Carolina guys wants to donate your car for about 2 days (1-2 night stay at my shop) I'll provide you with a free Rear Seat Delete for your time.
The base is made of ABS Plastic (NO WOOD is used) and covered in high quality carpet. This allows a significant weight drop for better acceleration, and a nice looking modification to the interior.
Must be a 2-door Cobalt with rear seats still intact.
You can see other examples of what we build at wwww.rearseatdelete.com or our home site at shraderperformance.com

Haha exactly man. Are you out of school right now? I am bored as **** at home. We should meet up at burgerking if you dont have class.
Donor car needs to have a clean vacuumed interior as well. No junk. We need to be able to take clean quality photos of the end result.
In Mt Holly. about 45-50 min from you.
I'm a big fan of yellow. Nice color. (See www.brightmare.net)

Cool, I well have to see about getting another car for the downtime and do some thinking cause I would love to have no more rear seat. I was hoping someone would do something like this.
