the cobalt was one of those cars with the big spoiler and the ricer pipe. i was coming back from the junk yard looking for parts for the build up to a 13b. but i was rolling past him right after the college speed zone. i guess he thought he was hot stuff with that loud pipe or something doing the weaving in and out a traffic. so i rolled past him and he got on it pretty funny that high pitch sound of his car. so of coarse i had to do something. so i down shifted and stepped on it. i just flew passed him like he was standing still. the look on his face was so priceless. like that old thing beat my brand new ricer car. what is that thing?

all i have on the car right now is what came on it. minus the air pump belt and the ac belt a stupid k&n air filter (that last forever only reason i bought the thing) and a new stock looking muffler thats it

There are a handful of cobalts around here. Really damn annoying. All have that ugly spoiler and shitty sounding exhaust.

me and my freind got beat by a supercharged colbalt in his GXL FC.. i went home grabbed my FD and went out on a hunt haha couldnt find him but smoked a few civics during the search.

Someone I know in this area has an SS supercharged Cobalt with some nice mods...runs a mid 12. Still sounds like poo though...I agree. It definitely has the annoying rice-like high pitched exhaust note. Runs great though.
Nice kill

bugman1973

the funny part is I'm pretty much all stock till this weekend. after that it will be a while till i can kill anything. ill have to break in the new motor. then ill have lots of fun.

you didnt race the Cobalt SS Supercharged... the guy must of bought the base model cobalt and put the SS S/C wing and a pipe on that.. because my oncle has a Cobalt SS S/C and a friend also i have a N/a FC and i lose so easily to them lol


just to say it wasnt the high model SS Supercharged Cobalt

Yeah, cuz kids do that all the time 1st gens are alot lighter that FC's so that is why you lose, and your canadian

peachykeenwight

Canadians are a hell of a lot cooler than Americans, my friend. This is coming from an American.

PS: No FB with a 12A on stock ports will beat a Cobalt SS. They may sound like ****, they may have a goofy wing, but they're a hell of a lot faster than an unported naturally aspirated RX-7 in a straight line. Sorry to burst your bubble.

He never said it was an SS! He just said it had a big ricer wing! He never specified that it was an SS wing!

Can a man not throw a different huge, non-SS wing on a Cobalt? or is this not possible?

MmSadda

iTrader: (2)

lol he even said "ricer pipe". that implies massive, non-stock exhaust. Someone who buys an SS would/should know well enough not to throw a ricer exhaust tip on it.

bella_daniela

those cobalts just get on my nerves, and those big wings are the worst

RXKarma

I have an 06 SS/SC Cobalt, (i also have a 93 R1 b4 u jump on me) and the wing is the worst, you cant see a damn thing out the back, but it is still a nice car for the price, dont bash on the car, just on the rice boy driving it

H.N.I.C514

The ss/sc would have owned you!

HNIC, what do you not understand about "he never claimed it was an SS/SC" ??

bugman1973

sorry but i did the guy was really pissed of when it happened after we got up the hill after the bridge the guy looks over . and give a dirty look. very priceless his girl or friend what ever she was just looked at him. here in clarksville the is another one just like him same ricer pipe its just red. i found out later that him and his buddy loose all the time. they talk a lot of stuff and can do anything

Hey, Bugman, are you claiming you beat a Cobalt SS/SC? or SS? or LS? or what?

At first it sounded like you were talking about a riced-out base model of Cobalt, now I'm not sure.

bugman1973

ss from what everyone says in town it is super charged but who knows they are a bunch of punk young guys ill get youll a pic here soon so you'll can see what i mean

According to the SCCOA the Cobalt SS runs mid 14s. My .02.

bugman1973

i run 12's down at our 1/8 mile track they run high 12's low 13's is this possible could what they have done to the cars killed the engines that bad make things like that too free flowing or not setting up something right?

bugman1973

ive always had great r/t. and a great holeshot even when i had my old bug. really scared people at first

Hmm, his car probably wasn't running correctly....

I understand the FB is lighter, but the 12A doesn't put out a ton of power....

SS Cobalt would probably beat you. Unless he messed something up.

bugman1973

well both of these car get beat by almost everything in town. im going to go find this guy when i get the 13b finished so i can smoke him even worse

05sedan

not to bash on you bugman but more than likely the guy couldnt drive the car even if it was the base model 2.2 like mine.....i had intake, exhaust,springs,ported t/b and run 10.1@72 with a 2.4 60 foot in the 1/8th....frfc ur right the 2.0 s/c without the lsd runs 14.5-14.9 depending on the driver ...ive got a friend with a 2.0 s/c running 13.8@101 with just a aem high flow airfilter....which though when it all comes down to it....its always the driver...not always good to think of other people that drive the same car as being like that one person.....just my .02...b4 u bash on me yes i drive a 05 cobalt. i also own a 88 turbo supra which im parting out the 7m stuff to later this year to drop a 1jz into and also looking at a 88 fc t2 in my area...i look forward to joining the rx7 family
