Took me a little while but it could be your sway bar end links going.

Cant go wrong with ZZP however a down pipe is a down pipe and any brand with quality build materials will yield the same results. Charge pipe go ZZP.

It sounds like some coil binding. But when I turn the wheel it clunks the whole way. I have new adjustable endlinks and fe5 control arms to go in. I want to fix this problem before I put the rest in. i am ordering spacers tomorrow

So I got a random PM a couple days ago. A guy joined the forum and PM'd me about something I had said over a year ago in the War Stories section. He called me out to run him with my Cobra and Cobalt.

I told him no since I have sold the Cobalt and I'm selling the Cobra, and his only reply is that I'm a ***** for not driving 6 hours to race him with a car I'm trying to sell. Not to mention I have no free time in the near future anyways between work and EMT training.

Best laugh I've had in a while. I'm gonna laugh even more if he finds this post and PM's me about it. Be careful if you make fun of him though, he may PM you calling you out

P.S. - My Cobra has turned much better times then he claims either of his cars can run.

Longest I was without my car was when waiting for my clutch kit and other things to come in.
I had my old ZR2 to run around in, so I know what you mean.

Now I've been out of a car for 4 days waiting for more parts..

I went a month without my balt just to get it back almost worse than before. It goes to the body shop this week for the door and quarter panel fix.

Depending on what other mods you have if your tuned for a 2.7 for track you can swap a 2.8 or bigger for daily and be safe but you generally can't swap a smaller pulley on there without a retune to be safe.

Was very tempted today to trade the Balt in for a 04 GTO M6, with 57k on it. But I really want to stay in a Cobalt unless I'm upgrading to an Evo or STI.
