If your talking about the intercooler pump, I guarantee it goes out at about 50k, I drove for nearly 10k miles without mine though :S haha, just had changed the damn thing when I wrecked
Buying used Redline or ss/sc

if u pop open the hood while it's running and u see fluid moving around or bubbling or w.e. u wanna call it in front of the supercharger where you put the fluid in for the h/e that means it's working. if nothing is going on or through it then it's not working. right?

also depends on looks though. if i only wanted power and sleeper i'd prob. get a redline but if you wanna drive around daily with a little bit more style i'd say the cobalt is a better choice. at least that's why i picked mine.
Call me crazy but I would think the negative equity hit you are gonna take on trading in the car for an rl are gonna eliminate any cost savings that you are thinking of.
If i was unemployed I would think hobbies would be the first thing to be put on hold rather than transportation needs.

Start selling stuff, don't eat out as often, stop spending money, get a basic jobby job.
Otherwise...
You're going to have to sell it out right being upside down and then get another car. Best of luck becasue that is a daunting task.

Exactly sir, or if your under the car for any reason you can just put your ear to the Pump and hear if its working or not.

i agree, the cobalt looks nicer to me and the redline is a bit more of a sleeper.
as far as the fluid moving around thats exactly how you can tell if its running or not you should see a constant amount a fluid moving through the option a filler neck.

First thing to remember is I'm in Canada, things are slightly different up here, I should be able to sell my ss/tc for $22k and be left with only $2k more to pay off, brand new it was $30k and I've had it just over 1 year and put 30,000km on it, well maintained, muffler delete, airbox mod, good things overall on this ss/tc so $22k up here in Canada is a fair asking price. Going from $24k in car debt to $8k in car debt is quite the jump down so I am going in the right direction.

for reasons above posts had made mention of, 99% of NSRT4's are molested in some way or another, so that's why I was leaning heavily towards an LSJ Ion or Cobalt, tho I am somewhat nervous about the stock axles and haven't looked into how much stage 2's are but I'd bet it's quite a bit extra that I don't have. And now that ppl are saying the pump is gunna be gone or need to be replaced asap I am even more nervous about getting an LSJ......I'm trying to find a car for DD/track use that won't need part replacement every 10,000k
