dodaddy

^^ FINALLY!!!!!!!! haha awesome job tyler! persistence pays off!!

also an update on the car, i took a couple pics the other day, the battery is relocated in the trunk now!

optional

nice box for it, how's that held down? drilled and bolted?

I wish I could build a more purposeful race style tC like yours, but it's my daily and I couldn't justify ripping out the spare and rear seats and stuff, looks awesome though!

one of my fav's for sure!

i hope i'll be able to get there a bit more closely with a subie

dodaddy

^^ thank you!

Mine is currently my daily driver too, but I bought the taylor battery relocation box kit that came with everything, and I did have to drill through the car to bolt it down, as well as a hole to vent the box.

optional

How much weight was the battery? How's that changed the weight balance up front?

This is my new custom speedo!

dodaddy

the battery was pretty expensive, probably 25 lbs, i mainly relocated it to give me more room in the engine bay for some other ideas

Watch out Matt! You're gonna hit that garage door at 18mph!

mattross

And the dealership said there was nothing wrong with the speedo.

I don't know if you've already done this, but you may just need to reposition the needle while your engine is running or have your key set to the acc position (right before kicking the starter over)......possibly?

I remember having to do it when I replaced the faces on my Dodge Dakota.

Or from now on you can say that your car looks so fast, that it looks like it's going 18mph even when it's standing still.

It's something with the speedo it's self. It used to not go on at all but the dealership wouldnt believe me because they couldn't recreate the problem. now I have proof!

He's still out about 210 to people here from what I know, and there are a few people from the next forum he scammed the cobaltss forums that are starting to come over here and find out all that happened... Ridiculous.

He's a terrible liar.
