i was thinking about doing the aux mod, just gonna find the time to do it, can do the tape method since the deck doesn't work, may have to try the changer method.

SR, go the route of the changer. That way, I didn't have any wires coming out of the stereo (for BT or 3.5mm connections) and it still looks stock. Plus, I can use the radio (which I don't do much anymore, curiously) and the CD changer is still usable when I pull the other disc out of it.

My Old Car:
2008 Cobalt SS



This was a fun car to own it had its headaches, but it was fun to drive. I've learned a lot and it was really the first car that I actually modded and raced.
It was all fun and games:





until this happened:





problem solved :



Finally got the car up and running and then had more issues, that's when i decided to cut my losses.

its a pretty clean car, has recently been resprayed, has 140k, the interior isn't too shabby for a 95.
the only issues are that:
the fog lights don't work
the radiator shroud needs to be replaced in my eyes
it has an exhaust leak
CEL, dude says b/c of exhaust leak
air bag light is on
power antenna does rise anymore
issue with the a/c, dude says the condenser needs a seal or something

I drove the car with my friend who has a 1j sc3 and everything seemed to drive fine, no odd noises or anything, no issues with suspension. Let the car running for about 30mins+ and it didn't over heat or anything, i left him a deposit to take it off CL

Thanks guys, going to get my alignment soon, adding camber and going lower in the front. Will probably go to a 35 series in the rear so that the stretch matches.
