    Thank you! I've been thinking about debadging the car, but I'm really not sure what I want for the final setup.

      • Thanks, Chuck!





        If I put 17s on it, this car will tuck wheel. Does anyone have 205/40-17s laying around?

          • Pretty excited to see you near-tuck a 17, my car is very similar in wheel arch size. I don't think I'll be tucking a 17 but I will also be damn close.

            Keep it up!

              I do currently run CBs on the car, I love them. You had a cool little Cobalt, sir! Thank you for the kind words, I'm trying to make the car a pleasant surprise to look at.

              Thanks, buddy! I can still remove collars up front, so if it doesn't tuck as much wheel as I'd like, I do have a touch of adjustment left.

                  • Balance shaft delete came in from C-F-M yesterday. I wish the Cosworth kit was not discontinued, but the C-F-M piece appears to be high quality and well-made. I'm impressed.

                    Here's a mega crappy pic of the block plate sitting on my keyboard.

                      • So, I took my car to its first autocross today. I was thrilled with how it performed considering the ride height and tire width; though it does need quite a bit for me to be totally happy. Balance and steering feel were terrific, though it was clear that the car needs a limited slip, wider rubber for racing, and a stronger clutch. The sway bars feel like they're the right size at least with these tires, the spring rates and damping felt spot-on, as well. I was more concentrating on learning the course and the car at its limits for today, but I was very pleased with the outcome. The car was hanging with Mini Cooper S'!
