GTR vs Cobalt SS vs Procharged Vette - YouTube

Hell yea, that was sweet! Looks like that driver barely fit in that little fox body though lol

Shaolin Crane 08-07-2012 05:13 PM

Shit I barely fit in mine, anyone over 5'8" has a hard time in them. Not as bad as Ben's vette though.

Yea that was one of the limiting factors of me not getting one 2 years ago, I sat in one and my head was touching the ceiling, I was thinking there is no way I will get in here if I ever cage it. lol

I'm 6'1'' And I sorta fit, I plan on relocating the seat mounts for extra head room.

There is an easy fix for us taller guys... i like to call it the CTS-V mod. I actually had to move the seats up from all the way back (the standard position in any car's seat rail)

Yeah. I was just thinking as long as it's pretty much a direct fit I would try it.

I've seen this video before and that car is fast as fuck. I wouldn't mind a foxbody with the new 5.0 in it.

I wouldnt either, but a swap is gonna cost around 10-15k depending on how you do it. And thats just for a stock engine. I'll take a boosted ls plz.
