Clay-bar and wax finally, had to show it off, first shot is from Tidewater meet, awesome guys.

Stage + tuning in route as we speak.

Looks good mang.

Looks good man. Keep the shutter open a little longer next time you do a shot like the second one to give the wheel some more motion.

Looks good! I was over that way today covering a few accounts. Beautiful area.

need better wax, don't see a whole lot of reflection going on Looking good though

i would say red is the best color for those cars. cobalt ss' are one of the least worst if i had to go FWD

Just claybar/synwax, it's factory GM paint, I've extracted all the shine . Editing made the lighting better, but took away some paint reflection.

FWD sucks, agreed!

SRT4 is t3h f4st3R!

True story.

Black one here has the wastegate from hell, and it moves.

Even staged I'm done bothering.

WOW, very nice looking Cobalt SS's. 265Hp very nice. Brembo brakes. GM did well.

Car looks great, but imo you need to get some different rims. There is just something about those rims, they just seem to like make the car I dont know just I dont like them lol.

That's the turbo, mine's supercharged and slower with shittier brakes.

Shit.

Car looks nice. I have to say I like the Cobalt SS turbo quite a bit. I have never driven one of the supercharged ones though.

Anything can look shined with photoshop.

I like your wheels better than mine. I would take yours and powdercoat them black in a second (to bad they won't fit). I'm not a big fan of the spokes on mine. They say their modeled after the ones from the corvette, but I still don't like them.

I like superchargers, don't regret this at all.


I'll post unedited ones you assholes .


Assume the Brembo's don't clear? Just trade me those too, ha normally the TC wheels are the sought after.

Yeah, as much as I love having Brembos, it's a bitch trying to find wheels that fit.

Walk it out dude

Belt awaits at the dealership, hub is ordered.

Got bored, all the parts came in, got antsy.

Running a basic tune, real tune comes Sunday. Essentially GM Stage 2, 3.0" pulley, 42lb'rs.

that + 5x110 has to be a MAJOR bitch finding wheels. I have a hard enough time finding anything I like in 5x110 as it is. Which by the way, if you ever sell those TC wheels, let me know.


... and on topic..

That should increase the fun factor a bit. I launched my car (mostly) for the first time since the new clutch tonite, and wow, did I miss the top end of that boost gauge. It pretty much instantly brought a smile to my face.

Very nice! Can't wait to see what you think of the ride after the tune.

We'll know tomorrow night, ha, psyched, the tune is going to make the GM stage kit beyond you're typical GM staged car. We threw the GM tune on the car Friday night, so eh it's fun, but I hear nothing but bad about it and good about the guy doing my HPT.
