    V1 Metal Mech's Goblin #397 - 2.4L N/A Standard Frame (Project Phoenix)

    I am getting ideas for when I order my kit. Quick question though. Is it really easier to sawsall the front end off to pull the drivetrain? I was planning on wrapping my chain hoist to the support, sticking a couple movers dolly's underneath, unbolting everything and just lifting up the body...

    V1 This can't be right

    So if I let them know I have a 5 bolt pattern then they will supply I assume probably cobalt LT 5 bolt rotors, and cobalt calipers.

    LSJ Parts -LSJ APP Unit, Shifter Unit/OTTP, LNF Speedometer

    Hi Robinjo, I cannot use the pedal or the cluster. I am however interested in all the shifter pieces including the stock unmodified shifter box. How much for all shipped to Abilene Tx. 79606. How would you like to get payed. I have PayPal though I have not used it in quite awhile, or I can...

    V1 Electronic Parking Brake

    I have an electronic parking brake on my new daily driver 2022 Ford Maverick. It's fine in a hill hold parking situation, but I dont know how it will work in a loss of main braking situation. I suppose since this vehicke is fully integrated it will allow you to pull up on the park brake button...

    V1 This can't be right

    Looking into buying one of the goblin kits. I am a mechanic by trade. Using an NA 2.2 HHR 5 speed with no ABS as the main donor. I know the donor front discs end up in the rear of a goblin. Additionally my donor is a 5 bolt 110mm pattern. What is used as a front hub on the machined goblin...

    V1 Engine pulled from car. Now what?

    So you only need the hand brake and primary cable? Do you need te secondary cables and the tubes? Or just the tubes?

    V1 Jim McDonald // Extended Track // '09 HHR SS/TC Automatic

    Going to still check my friends hollander interchange book today on the ECMs. The vehicle type, wiring, and ECM compatibility from what all are saying seems to be the issue. The hard parts like pedals and such are not a big deal junkyard stuff. As far as selling off what's not needed on the HHR...

    V1 Jim McDonald // Extended Track // '09 HHR SS/TC Automatic

    I will be looking for a severely wrecked one that's a 2008 5 speed CoPart here I come, unless I find one in my junky. Will the HHR 5 speed ECM play nice with a 2008 cobalt 5 speed harness? The easy answer to a lot of these questions can be found in my friends Hollander interchange manual. I plan...

    V1 Jim McDonald // Extended Track // '09 HHR SS/TC Automatic

    I was thinking since the HHR is a 5 speed and a non ABS vehicle, plus I have owned and maintained since new I know its history. Engine runs great, trans shifts fine, and like my old Chevy pickup that's a 5 speed that I also bought new. I know how to drive a stick that I dont wear out clutches...

    LSJ Parts -LSJ APP Unit, Shifter Unit/OTTP, LNF Speedometer

    I have a 2008 HHR NA 5 speed as a donor, need to round up the other bits. Not sure if the shifter in the HHR will work in a goblin either, or if the cluster with interchange and play nice with my 08 wiring. I need to look at a friends hollander interchange book. I will be doing that tomorrow and...

    Interested in what you have left. Is the throttle pedal from a 2008? Will it work with a 2008?

    V1 Jim McDonald // Extended Track // '09 HHR SS/TC Automatic

    Was the HHR wiring and hardware compatible? Just wondering as my old daily driver HHR 2.2 5 speed N/A is going to be my main donor. I also have a list of compatible pieces out of the HHR based off rockauto catalogs.

    V1 Choosing a donor after test drives

    I looked at his build thread. It's what told me the cradle, and EPAS from the HHR would fit. The rack and tie down rod ends cross through rock auto catalog. I am about to hit up my friends salvage yard to look through his Hollander interchange books on the few items I have questions about like...

    V1 4 lug verses 5 lug wheels...

    If 5 lug is what you want, why not order it with 5 lug brakes for the front, then just replace the donor vehicles front discs and bearing hubs with 5 lug parts off a 2009-2011 Cobalt LT or pontiac G5 GT since that stuff goes on the back with the engine and cradle anyways. The replacements new...
