Same…
i still cant believe u bought a cobalt lol… never forget that day u pulled in CB and got out of that… when all we talked about was honda shit the entire time i worked there lol…
Not bad at all.I actually dont mind the wheels.like everyone else said needs to be dropped a little.if you do an exhaust try and get a turbo muffler and keep a simular tip on.I hate seeing cobalts with rice cannons coming out the back.
I see your car at the U all of the time in the free lot. I think the stock wheels looked much better. I would strongly considered painting/powder coating them black. My friend has the exact same car except its orange and automatic. I don’t mind it but the drive by wire doesn’t really thrill me.
JR, we gotta meet up some time… Gotta see the 'Teg…
Prugar, yes it does need dropped. That’s coming this summer. struts, springs and bigger sways… It already has an exhaust. The GMPP one. It has a stock-style tip on it from GM, but I’m probably going to go back to the stock SS one because it’s single-wall chrome and an inch smaller… Looks alot better…
240, yep that’s me. I’m not sure what I’m gonna do. I’m eventually going to go to 17’s again… I really want to set some 17x7 Saab/BBS’s, flat black them, and put BBS caps on them… That’d look really good on this car…
UPDATE:
So the car has since received:
- a triple gauge a-pillar
- 3 Sunpro gauges, black
- a stock black hood instead of the c/f one
- small projector fog-lights, grill mounted (sounds tacky, but it isn’t)
- replaced the small breather with a standard hose again
I’ll put up a few update pics as soon as the temperature goes above freezing…
Got some plans for it this summer… More pics and info as it comes…
if you see a white grand prix around, make sure to race it 
that thing must fly…
Seems to move faster then some Porno red interiord mustang i know of.
touche’
mustang is heavier, so if we race soap box derby style, i have a chance.
with those mods, 9’s at least.
I’d like to know what year Monster he is riding like a little vagina, because you shouldn’t be anywhere near his bike unless he’s running on 1 cylinder…In the mean time, let’s examine these claims more closely based on the lower-end Monster from a few years ago and a new Sportster/Ninja 250. I’ve included references for the performance figures below.
First of all, despite your 3-fold displacement advantage, a Ninja 250 only gives up about 1 second to you, both 0-60 and in the 1/4 mile.
As for the Ducati, there is essentially NO WAY you are going to keep pace with an M1000 for one gear, let alone “the first few.” It makes more torque just as quickly as your 883, then proceeds to blow your ancient lump of a motor out of the water.

HID’s now too.
Is the GP a GTP? I’ve seen one around…
And that’s because the 883 is a piece of shit in factory trim. Even at Stage .5 the shit opens up big time. I never said the bike was fast as hell, but it gets the job done. Kthx.
Do you go to RMU? I see a similart Cobalt parked in the lot in front of Seawall all the time.
Yup, that’d be me. What do you drive?
