GTP vs Subaru

[matt5112]

gotta respect what GM did made a car that will mash a stock 2004 grand prix gtp straight to the ground..Got videos to prove it!!!

In recent times GM also made the ZR1, they also made the SS Camaro. Try comparing the actual cost of the car new and cars that are all introduced at the same time, or at least comparable model years. Not 97 to 06, thats over 9 years of marketable technological advances.

Try again.

um ok guys so the SUPERCGAGED cobalt that i just dynoed at 298 whp and 338 wtq is not fast!!!!! That will do the 1/4 in 12.9 at 111.1 mph???

you need to learn to drive, guy. did you hit the rev limiter enough times or not? you could do it again for fun.

Want to look back and see when that Buick 231 was designed? Back when displacement was measured in cubic inches...

Buick V6 engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Chevy small block evolved as well, they changed coolant routings and called it the LT series, they redesigned the whole damn thing and called it the LS series.

Lets take a quick peak at whats powering your car... GM Family II engine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Your block is iron and the heads are aluminum which allows you to run higher compression, theres more power, the GP has all iron heads and block. Your engine came factory with an intercooler which you should already know what that means.

Now how much did you pay for your cobalt again?

 

[blueguy]

Who cares how much I have in my car or how much you paid for yours...it is still a girl car and it sounds like ass. GM's Ecotec and Ford's Zetec are hands down the RICEY-EST sounding 4 cylinders out there...I'd rather listen to a Honda

 

[mcvey]

No i can drive my car just fine. And i said 2004 and im a 2006. And it was no problem. Ok and lets change this ok so how much do you have in your car???

I have $300 stage 2
$400 exhaust
and $200 intake

So i maybe have 1000 into it and i can pull a 12 second 1/4
And you have how much into it and you a V6 3.8 liter and im a 2.0 i4. so compared to your car im much smaller motor and my car costed how much less. AND I CAN STILL BEAT YOU!!!!!

You did absolutely none of that yourself though. You bought it that way. Where's the satisfaction in that?

 

[blueguy]

The compressin ration on my car is only 9.5:1 that means we have the same ratio. SO what is the difference. And with the G85 package which is limited slip diff and racing seats. I payed 24,569.

BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!

Hold on...not done laughing...

BWHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!

You paid $25,000 for a f*cking cobalt?!?!?!? LMAO!!!

L36 aka naturally aspirated is 9.4:1 and the L67 aka supercharged is 8.5:1. Those are the same for the Series III engines as well.

And you expect me to believe anything you've said and anything you say after this when you clearly have NO idea what you're talking about.

I'm fairly certain you can do much better than that for less with a GP, hell you could pick up a 3rd gen F body with a 350 and rebuild it from the heads up and have an easy 400 horse and less weight than a W-body and still have plenty of money left over. Perhaps an LS1 powered 4th gen, I hear with just a cam you're already at 400 crank HP. And the benefit to any of those options is, you wouldn't be driving a chicks car. :th_scratchhead:

Yeah... thats halfway to a 69' Z/28.:th_laugh-pointup:

 

[a98gtp4u]

wow when i bought a 02 wrx a while back i got it 4 10k and all i dumped was 1200 under the hood and walked off the launch 10 cars on a 05 s/c cobalt. not very impresive if u ask me.

 

[matt5112]

You're playing the avoidance game. You're avoiding any argument I make that you don't have a rebuttal for. So who's losing?

 

[blueguy]

Ok laugh all you want but i smoke your automatic cars hands down. Im not going to call you cars junk because i love GM veicles to the heart. BUt whatever you guys have your cars and i have mine. I have only seen one fast GP ever and he did beat me but for only one reason. He had 125 shot of NOS and sprayed at 1/8 mile. But i was ahead till then

What is with all of these tools lately?

Dude...your so caught up in your pile of crap you can't see straight. Oh, and btw...I do know how crappy the Cobalt is because I DRIVE ONE ON THE DAILY. Might not be a SS, but all you got is nicer seats and a 5-spd...dash is crap plastic, just like the rest of the car...cheap cheap cheap. You got took. I could care less if your car ran 8's...it is still a chick car. SS or not...who cares. This is a GP forum. Talk about your Grand Prix or don't post here. We don't give a rats ass about your SS.

 

[blueguy]

Ok so lets argue over the internet im so excited..OK so what do you drive i have not heard yet.
Year?
make?
model?
Motor size?
AND what do you have going on under the hood??

Im waiting

IT IS A GRAND PRIX. JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE ON A GRAND PRIX BOARD.

Noob.

 

[a98gtp4u]

thank you.....

 

[a98gtp4u]

also jus to be clear, with those few mods on the ss, i really doubt it runs 12's, cause a stock 1 runs like a 14.6-14.8, and then u prb cant drive so lets say mid 15's.

 

[Poil336]

Probably, they were built for two different things.

ugh... let's not start that argument again lol. the TC is nice. gm did well with that. the motor anyways.

 

[blueguy]

Sounds more like your wrapped up in your car that you dont care about others cars. you have that kinda of attitude that your cars the best and the rest is ****. When what rude thing have i said about your car?? Please enlighten me?? Its not the car that makes a person!!!!!

Well no sh!t there sherlock. Like your attitude is any different coming to a grand prix forum talking about how great your Cobalt is...honestly. I respect a lot of cars and a lot of people's hard work...but don't come here shooting crap at me like this...

I have $300 stage 2
$400 exhaust
and $200 intake

So i maybe have 1000 into it and i can pull a 12 second 1/4
And you have how much into it and you a V6 3.8 liter and im a 2.0 i4. so compared to your car im much smaller motor and my car costed how much less. AND I CAN STILL BEAT YOU!!!!!

And not expect someone to come back at you. Don't come here bragging up your Cobalt saying how it is going to beat our cars. Whooptie do if it does...what do you want...a cookie?

Remind me how i cant drive you seen it?? SHould i just post up a time slip??

Yeah go ahead.

Just for sh!ts and giggles.

he's right though. this is a grand prix forum. we're here to talk about grand prixs. this is the place for us to be wrapped up in our car...

There are profiles on this site for a reason. :th_thumb-down:

Nowhere did I ever claim my car was fast or that I'm going to make it so. I plan on keeping this thing till it falls apart from rust so I'm going to keep it slow and mostly stock so I can get the most bang for my buck. You're the one driving an econo-box with an upgraded engine in it and paid over 5 times what I did for mine. You got what for your money? 100 horse? Big deal, look into how much a turbo kit for a GP is.

And you'd still have money to fix the car when you inevitably blow it up.

And not expect someone to come back at you. Don't come here bragging up your Cobalt saying how it is going to beat our cars. Whooptie do if it does...what do you want...a cookie?

Theres a guy like that at my work... Drives something many times ****tier than a cobalt, and thinks he can beat my GP. I've got the same response.
