What do you think of the reflashed ECU. I was wondering if it is worth the $.

I live in Charlotte. Although I am pretty busy with work, I would be interested. I think it is ok to be a member of a number of different forums. I have 3 that I check out as much as I can. I also have a Silverstone 2.4L 2LT. We got it in May and we have had absolutely no problems. I have done a few mods, the two I recommend are the CGS Air Intake and the Anti-Sway Bar, both available from Mike @ SoCalHHR http://www.socalhhrs.com/socalhhrshome.html one of the supporting vendors. He also has a number of useful links listed on his site. Welcome

John

Tom,

I have been in contact with Labonte and they seem intrested. I will see what develops. As soon as thing work out I'll post a note about it in the forum.

Jim

Hrmm.. would be a good excuse to get down to the JR Cigar down in Burlington for me.. If I can arrange my schedule I'd probably show up..

I'm easily enticed by any excuse for a road trip. I would go.

Tom,

Let me know if they will not. I'm sure I could get Dick Shirley in Burlington to. I'm there doing work 2-3 days a week.

ill go

I talked to Kelly Shirley (general manager)at Dick Shirley chevrolet in burlington, and even if Labonte will host this one he wants to do one too.

Lexington, NC, between Winston and Charlotte. No real mods. Waiting to trade it in on a SS if they ever get one ready.

Highmiles

Any new news on a NC get together (I need motivation to finish my current mods in progress)?

Nick

I've been wondering what has happened. I'll be at SEMA all week. I'll try to set it up when i get back, if there is interest.

I would like to make it to one of the FL G2G but, the next one will be the weekend of my nephews birthday. Maybe if there is one around the New Year, that is the next time I plan on being in the central FL area.

Nick

I thought I'd revive this thread since I'm in NC and a recent new HHR owner.

I'm located about 30min north of Raleigh.

My wife and I purchased a black 2007 2LT Saturday

Looking forward to making a few modifications to it but nothing major. Hopefully if there is ever a get together I can make it.

Have a CGS intake on the way, and I am currently piling up parts for the audio install, and have lightweight pullies on the way too. Look forward to making this as unique as my Cavalier was before my accident. :(

Look forward to making this as unique as my Cavalier was before my accident. :( Sounds like you ended up here the same way I did. Someone pulled out in front of me back in June and totalled my truck. This HHR has been a lot of fun to drive so far and I too am looking forward to some mods. :thumb:

I live in Raleigh and have a 2007' Teal Green 2LT with all the factory bells and whistles.

I am going to be in Greensboro this coming week. On business for work, though. Won't be taking the HHR, have to drive one of the designated "trip cars" from work, in this case a Ford 500.

I'm right next to Greensboro in Gibsonville. I usually work in Burlington, but usually hit Greensboro Grand Prix on Friday afternoons.

I am in Salisbury.

Are there any HHR clubs in central NC?

Hey, the Sheraton Four Seasons in Greensboro is one heck of a hotel. I was there for the Sungard/OSSI national convention August 20 - 23. I saw a SOM HHR in the lot just like mine, had a small sticker center bottom of rear window that looked like a "=" sign, just in case it was a forum member's HHR. I think it had NC plates. I had to drive a department Ford 500 there, left my HHR at home.

Concord/Kannapolis area Have a Premier Edition 2LT HHR, really it is for my wife, but I love driving it. Tightfeel, excellent handling sport suspension, yet rides smooth and quiet, I was suprised by the quality build, doors shut smooth and tight like a Cadillac. I think the HHR is the best buy for the money that GM has.

Rural Hall, just north of Winston Salem. Imperial Blue 2LT. Glad to be here.

hey everybody!! We will be picking up a black 2008 HHR SS on Saturday for my wife.

There's a WNC HHR club (Western NC), so they may do a Biltmore ride. I was hoping someone would form a Central NC HHR club, but I have yet to hear of one.

I live in the Winston Salem NC area and just bought a 2006 black HHR a couple of weeks ago. Can you recommend where to get accessories.

Thank you,

Here's my baby. I got her in April, and she already has 7K miles on her.
She's an '07, but new. It was the last '07 on the lot, and they only had 1 '08 so we got an awesome deal.

Hi there. I seem to one of the few coastal NC HHR members here, but maybe more will show up . . .

I've got a 2006 white LT that hasn't been modified much except I blacked out the space between the rear windows, installed leveling springs in the back and painted my calipers and drums red.

I bought some 18" wheels but I'll wear these down to slicks before I make the swap! Someday I hope to put running boards and a rear roll pan on, make some small intake and exhaust mods and maybe some grill/headlight body changes.

I'll be watching this space to see if any doin's come to this neck of the woods. I might check out the SC bunch and see if anyone in Myrtle Beach has anything going on.

TTFN.

Hello fellow North Carolinians! I'm in Huntersville, just north of Charlotte. I bought my '09 Black HHR SS about a month ago from an insurance auction and I am picking it up from the body shop this coming Wednesday. I am anxiously awaiting it's arrival. The mods I will be working on over the next month include: Stubby antenna, blacked out bowties, red SS overlays with matching red 2 line SS pinstripe, rear wiper removal, and installing a Pioneer F90BT double din navigation unit. Should be a fun time. Anyone know a good place for the pinstriping in the Charlotte area?

i thought you were gettin a ss? congrats on your purchase. i've still never had a new car , but my 08 hhr was closest , 26,000 miles. now 60,000.

i thought you were gettin a ss?

Geez, you guys are payin' attention. :eek:

I changed my mind... decided that I'm not fired up to deal with a high performance car and all their idiosyncrasies. If I need a visceral fix I'll just roll out in the Dakota V8. As much respect as I have for the HHR SS, nothing beats the sound of a V8 with pipes.

IMO, of course.

I am heading to Cary, NC next Friday, so there will be one more SS in town for a few days! :cool:

Anyone in the Charlotte area? I had to get a new A/C condenser for my SS and I need to get the A/C charged? Where would you recommend I go other than the dealer?

Hi I'm a new member just got an 08 SS Black, 5 speed, still trying to learn the car. I live in the Hendersonville area thats about 30 miles east of Asheville. All I can say is wow this car is fun, that is until you see the blue lights.

Hi, I was wondering if any body knows if you can tow an HHR on a car dolly or on a trailer??? I was told NO you can not buy a U-HAUL dealer.

Anyone in NC know a place I can get the SS and chevy logos either painted to covered in vinyl?

Hello all!

Current mods: Airaid Cold Intake. Removed hub caps & installed black lug nuts. New 'Progress' rear sway-bar due this Friday.
Future mods: Exhaust system, lowering springs for the back, install rear seat. I'm thinking of installing the right rear door from a wagon so I can have the window on that side (no more blind spot). High perf. shocks (I might make these here at work). Sound system, Wheels. Rear view spot camera. Running boards. Mud flaps. Roof racks. Fog lights. Chrome accents.

Why don't the triad folks just pick a place, like a cookout with a large enough nearby parking lot and raid it with HHR's one night? I'd say sonic, but their food sucks.

Well guys, it was awesome. Hhr style, Dr. Jeckyl, Dmarotta, and me (neogenic) were out there. Tons of video and pics coming. We also drove out to an old air strip for pics. We're working, with the help of Jeckyl's daughter, on setting up a carolina hhr club. Had a blast. Thanks for those that came out and more to come!

It was good to meet Neo and HHRStyle, as well as seeing DMarotta again. Unfortunately alot of the pics are blurry because my girl isn't very good with keeping the camera steady. But here's a few pics and I will get the videos posted probably tomorrow. We definately need to plan a trip up HHRStyle's way for another get-together, picture day.

Type Biltmore into the search function and it will bring up some threads.

Well Dang. I thought I had a truly awesome idea...and it seemed random enough for a location and make of vehicle...and...well...

I am both amazed and a bit dumbfounded...and jealous. Well dang. I will ook up the thread.

Maybe we could do the SS' in there. It looks like those are all standard HHRs. Anyway, thanks for pics and contribution. We'll have to do round 2 and maybe pick some other cool mountain backdrops.

HHR Style is from Asheville and was at the Speedstyles event. We planned on going up his way for pics next time. Of course, the Biltmore came to mind. I reinvented the wheel apparently!

Yeah, this event took place way before the SS entered the picture. I think they tried to do a repeat of it but don't know if it ever happened.

It was good seeing you too. And you don't need an SS badge to be SS minded. You've got the magnaflow, and your modding. Its all good. I can't check the video at work, but I will later. Biltmore 2 is a must! The fall foliage time is when we have to do this in Asheville...Biltmore and other scenic spots.

I might start another thread to do with this if there's interest.

I am working on a Carolina HHR's club idea already.

Chapel Hill, NC; home of the Heels.
New to the forum and HHR world. Picked up my brand spankin new solid black '09 HHR SS 5-speed sitting on 18s and low profile Michelins last Friday with 36 miles on her; 30 of them being my first and only test drive. I got in her with 6 miles on it ten days ago and, I ain't one to front, this damn sure is the first new car I've ever owned and the feeling I get from knowing each & every mile is my own...simply it's the tits. The last SS I owned was a '69 Chevelle and let's just say I'm lucky to make it out alive from that disastrous teenage combination. To own an SS again is just icing on the cake, but boy oh boy it's some of that TLC icing and cake, the ones they make television shows about. Typically, I'm just not one to brag, rather my actions do the talkin'...but it's hard not to feel good about this ride period...throw in the heavenly deal I got and it's just right effin' dreamy. No thanks to "cash to clunkers", mind you. All good though, what's a lost title worth...$4500? To be exact. Don't get me wrong though, it's all good. I reckon that's that "new car" feeling I've been hearing about for the last 30 years. I'm fiendin' to learn more about customizing this beauty and everything else that goes into making the best out of one's HHR. I'd be interested in linking up for anything HHR related; photos, beers, clubs, audio outfits, women in HHRs, shop; whatever. Appreciate you taking the time to read through my banter, safe to assume you've been fortunate enough to experience that all around feel good vibe just knowing about your new HHR in the driveway. I've got a lot of questions, but I don't wanna be that annoying newbie pest, I just can't see it, but if anyone would like has anything they'd like to share and wouldn't mind taking on a question or two...please get at me, shoot me your email or contact me through this site. If anyone can point me in the right direction for some quality layovers for the bowties, etc...I hope to hear from you.Thanks again for your time ya'll. Be easy. One.

Anyone going to Rockingham for the carolinarides dragway event?
Its supposed to be about 90 degrees for the high...so not cool, but just curious who's going out there.

Will do.

And Congratulations Crooz! Any modification plans?

I am not going today to the Rockingham event. I had to work. Jeckyl is not going either.

Bought the White HHR last Satuday.
Have ordered: eibach's, & rubber rear bumper fascia cover.

Trying to decide on my visual path for the car.:confused:
Thinking about changing out all the chrome, to black chrome. (grill, handles, rail ends, wheels).
Also I'm deciding on the stripes or graphics for the sides or top. Probably in black or dark grey.

The black chrome parts through gm are nice...hhr style was thinking about tyat too. It can't be had for the ss crew, but a nice option all the way.

The Sandhills here. About 5 min from Pinehurst. 09 white 4 door panel 2.2 5 speed

Count me in on any events coming up soon! I'm in Charlotte and I wouldnt mind going on a cruise to let go of some of that stress from college.....:roll:
Plus it would be nice to meet some more HHR owners. ;)

Well, I typically hang out with the local Cobalt SS crowd... but I guess I don't completely belong anymore.

What's the Charlotte area scene for these things like?

We're trying to grow it. We did speedstyles and plan on doing more stuff. Some trips and meets. Some dragstrips too. I am working on setting up "Carolina HHRs" thats Charlotte based. Anyone know who has a black HHR SS that I saw in Monroe, NC that has a sticker on the window that said "Pebble Pushers?

If you want to run with a GM crowd check out the DSLSJA. Mostly Balts and Ions... but there are one or two HHR SS in the mix. I hang with them when I can.

Do you have the link?

The main board is up on http://www.uslsja.com

Headquartered in Indian Trail... with members from all over the carolinas, TN, etc.

I did join that, I forgot. Dr. Jeckyl told me to join that. There's not much posting on there though.

Well... a lot of us communicate via IM or by phone calls... we know eachother pretty closely.

Give a shout out on there, someone will get back to ya.

Good to meet ya. Hopefully you can come out to a meeting. Our speedstyles thing a few pages back on this thread was pretty sweet. IM me and I'll give you my number if we get together again soon.

Yeah... my name is the same over there. I haven't posted there in a while. I actually work with the club "Godfather" who goes by Mr. Photo... so we talk all the time.

Hey what's going on NC boys and girls. I'm in Huntersville. I am starting to do some stereo upgrades and I want to put a 10" sub in the factory location. Does anyone have someone that could do a custom box, preferably fiberglass??? Also, does anyone have a connection on rims?

Bought a certified used 2009 HHR LT2 last week and am really enjoying it.

It was a rental for 8 months prior to finding its way to my garage so it lacks OnStar and XM, but the LT2 features, AAA and my Zune into the Aux port more than make up for it.

The highway mpgs are great too (averaging 37mpg on my 50 miles per day commute - previous car averaged 22mpg so this is great).

Are there any meets scheduled for NC?

Well Roy there was some talk back in May about trying to get something together in the Charlotte area, didn't happen though. Maybe the closest thing yet this year to a get together is the annual Tail of The Dragon meetup and trip. Here's a link to this year's thread....

Hey. Gal from Union County just got my CPO 2010 HHR LT Black about 2 months ago and absolutely LOOOVE it!! Am modding it just a little bit here and there (newbie to modding and on a single Mom's salary ... not much I can really do LOL) but I just absolutely enjoy my "dream car" (yeah, I have modest taste). ;)

Hey folks,
Micmac here from Greensboro, 2010 HHR SS Red. Keep me posted on meet ups. When not in one of my GM vehicles ( 1963 C-10, 2003 GMC Sierra and my HHR) I'm on an Indian Motorcycle (1947 Chief, 2002 Chief and 2002 Scout). I like the vehicle, wish I was an inch shorter!

welcome to the site Micmac. Congratulations on the new ride.:twothumbs:

Thanks for the welcome! Look forward to hearing the voices of experience!

:welcome8: to the forum Micmac from down here in Kannapolis!

Born & raised in NC does that count? now living in beautiful Socal but still have fond feelings of my hometown.

Mooresville - aka Race City USA. Check out our gallery. 2011 LT2

Welcome carolinaracing, looks like it took a long time for them to activate your access, Race City sound fun.:twothumbs:

Nice wrap on you ride looks like a panel that way.

I live in Northeast Greensboro by Hicone Road

:welcome8: to the forum carolinaracing from the other side of Lake Norman!

Thank you 843de.

Thanks - look us up if you're ever in Mooresville!

Does JR's in Statesville have a car night? The one in Burlington does. I drive the '63 Chevy Pick-up over there (Burlington). If so I could meet up there one night, Statesville ain't far from you is it? . I go to Charlotte once a month on business.

Don't forget the Kannapolis Cruise-In, dates for 2012 will be coming out shortly.

Its in downtown Kannapolis and the first event should be in mid March again this year, its always on a Saturday from 3:30-9:30 pm. If you come on over sometime let us know, we can meet up and talk HHR's while we show our '67 SS 427 convertible.

Cool, I could bring the '63 C-10, or ride one of my Indian Chiefs, people hate it when I do that cause I usually win the prize, Let me know then. Have you ever looked up "Cruising Carolina?" They put all the meets in there. One of my favorites is when they close down Pilot Mountain downtown except to classic cars/trucks or motorcycles, I think it is the 4th Saturday from May-October.

Yeah we were going to one of the meets up there last year, but then we had some rain down here and the SS never sees rain under any circumstances, even if I trailer it somewhere.

Keeping a "100 point car" perfect is tons of work, and getting it rained on would just drive me nuts.
