V1 AZMoto #245 ext-track - 09 SS TC

[AZmoto]

It's been a while since I've worked on the Goblin. Phoenix summers tend to bring my car projects to a screeching halt. I finally got my way too expensive control arms assembled and installed. I also put all of the brakes on. It was nice to make a little progress again.

Getting closer to a first start attempt. Hooked up the scanner for the first time. Should the DIC be active?

 

[Gtstorey]

I think that for this the DIC would be the pretty rare option info screen? Do you have it?

Ah that makes sense. I had forgotten about that. No I don't have it.

Took care of a bunch of odds and ends then suddenly this happened:

Have you ever been so excited to hear a Cobalt engine?!

After all of the work redoing the wiring harness I was excited just to hear it crank lol.

Why so quiet?

In retrospect, I regret not letting out a huge "WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" when I did my first start!

Woo hoo! It's alive!

Summer is officially over in Phoenix! I have no more excuses

The Goblin is off the jack stands finally. Now I have to get started on the alignment.

Starting to look like a streetable Goblin. Not sure you need that much roof insulation to keep the sun off the top of your head tho Paul... Let me know if you need a hand with anything, I'm looking for an excuse to do something other than work on the house.

Found these guys lurking in a box. Can someone ID them for me?

 

[Ross]

Did you order the fiberglass engine cover?

Wing mounts upper brackets.

Excellent! I was very impressed with the performance of this wing for a cheap as it was! I'll be replacing it this winter but I would definitely recommend everyone put one of these on their Goblin if they don't already have a wing!

The wing looks nice. May I ask, what's your wheel and tire combo.?

The size of this thing makes me think it might make a great front wing when it's no longer needed in the back.

Wheels are Black chrome FR500s for a Mustang. I'm running adapters.
Tires are Nitto NT05, 315/35R17 in the back and 275/40R17 front.
