Folks say these car handle like they're on rails, but your build thread has been the real rollercoaster. Congratulations!

That's probably the ABS module?

Not to change the topic, but did anything else ever come of your snapped steering arm? Was it concluded that your A/T impersonation caused that issue? I feel like I read about a consideration that all the new kits get the A/T solid design as opposed to the scalloped/lightweight original version...

In my opinion it's a combo of having read everything and being willing to open all the search results for a given search. I know it looks funny when folks look over my shoulder at my browser but if I'm really trying to find something that I know I've seen before I'll have like 20 tabs open. I...

My master cylinder piston was purple as well, I suspect it's similar to the information linked below. Basically, the part has to be anodized, so why not anodize it in a color, particularly when the color indicates that the part has been anodized versus a non-colored application where it's not...

Saw your post in the Spring Rod Run thread, looks like your fully stripped donor still has the auto trans shift cable and the parking brake + guide tubes. I'm not 100% sure you need either of them because my build is different than yours, just wanted to make sure you don't miss anything.

LED Halo gang?

SS/SC gang!

At a minimum you'll also need fuel injectors. That kit looks at least as solid in the single picture they provide as any other eBay kit I've seen, although the lack of additional pictures is a little concerning. The wastegate housing looks interesting, I can't see how it dumps anywhere except to...

SC gang!

Where are you getting your powdercoating done? And I overlooked this earlier but now I'm curious, did you find someone that had put a supercharger on an SS/NA or did they swap a 2.4 block into an SS/SC?

Brake Line Clamp Not sure if @Mayor West realized what he was signing up for by creating an STL repository but I'm not sure my contribution was archived there. My STL is sized for the braided line and I think Mr. Mayor remixed it for a larger small end ID for the original Cobalt brake lines.

I would say if there's any rust concerns then some folks have had issues dropping the subframe. If the captive nuts for the rear subframe mounts break free, then you would have to cut a hole in the floor to loosen them, but that's not a huge deal on a shell you're scrapping. Other than that...

Welcome! What kind of stuff are you interested in doing with the car? Autocross, track, mountain runs, etc. I used to hit Caesar's Head into Brevard in my S2k that I sold to fund the Goblin. I saw your post on my build thread, I'll PM you.
