Yeah, it's my buddy's R32. Twin turbo straight 6. He built it from scratch, all forged parts...still has to drive the prelim 5000km before he can rev it past 3500rpm or drive over 100km/hr. It's pissing him off cuz he has a 72L tank to do 400km.... (for you americans, my cobalt has a 50L tank and does 500-600km) and at 1,32$/L, that makes it quite expensive for him to drive! hahaha 
spoken like a decent human being. thank you.
Do I see a RB motor?this x19021039281
i have no problems with any brand of car really. there are many platforms you can build off of to make into powerhouses if you have the time and money. i personally prefer domestic stuff, but i hand respect where it is due. and heck as long as its done clean i dont mind checking out whatever it is. i am afterall a car fanatic, not just a cobalt fanatic

I've got 6x9, but they came out of my Vette when I upgraded the sound system. All Sony speakers now. Even went from 4x6 to 6.5 rounds in the front in the Vette. Loud as f*** in there. Or is that just because the cabin is smaller?

i have all my speakers laying around but that's because they are **** and the doors were pretty much blown out, why do you want stock speakers anyway? and z06 why did you have to swap out your speakers in your vette, aren't they bose? unless you have an older model but my dad has a 2004 commemorative edition and it has all bose speakers

I'm having problems removing all the glue gunk from under the trunk emblem. Any tricks/compounds I should use that work better than others?
also, I painted my front emblem, but it's already starting to peel around the silver trim. Anyone get theirs powdercoated, are the results ''permanent'' ?
