Not new here but about time i indroduce myself
Hi everyone, by no mean's am i new to this fourm ive actually been lurking around this fourm for quite some time now, and have found it usefull on many occasions, and from what ive seen its a great community to be a part of. I've had my alero since feb 2010 and let me tell u it's been a love hate realationship, but with all the trouble its given me I'd be saddened to give it up. It's Nothing more than a stock 2003 2.2 coupe with no mods other than a new kenwood deck and kicker ks's all around. But thats not to say nothing's been done to it..... when i first got it i repaired the rusty quarters, completly bypassed the passlock system, just about rebuilt the entire front end, and swaped in 2 new fuel pumps, etc. Needless its about time I shared what I know with the rest of you's, cause this form's honestly the reason I still have my alero, its saved me more than once.

Aleros in Europe have fully calvanized bodies, mine has no rust at all on body panels, although I live in the northern part of Europe where they put salt on roads at winter and some car rust like crazy.
Don't you have calvanized body panels? |

There supposed to but the coupes are notoroious for trapping road salt and water in the quarters, to the point where the galvinization's useless |

I have a full exhaust for the ecotec if your interested in making a drive, id be willing to meet you somewhere. Its everything you need including the downpipe that is fitted for the alero so no fabrication required. Takes about an hour-hour and a half to install depending on how rusty your head nuts are.
Its the pacesetter header, magnaflow high flow catalytic converter, and pacesetter dual outlet muffler. Shoot me a PM if your interested !
