This really kills me but I have to sell my 03 Cobra. Let me first say and I can NOT emphasise this enough. There is NOTHING wrong with my car. That is NOT why I am selling it. I am a 48 year old, avid car collector. A very fussy owner that takes flawless care of his vehicles from every day...

I need a web site or email address to bug Ford. It's nothing major. I have had my Cobra since late May and it rolled off the truck with a chip out of the leather steering wheel. The dealer ordered one the same day. Ford sent the wrong wheel about a month ago. I think waiting 9 weeks for a...

Just received my new PRO 5.0 shifter. Anybody installed one yet? If so, any tips, problems or success stories? Thanks NSR

For those that had asked me to give my thoughts after I added my new pulley & flip-chip, here they are! INCREDIBLE!!! First, I added the FR-500 cat back exhaust & K&N system that eliminates the factory air cleaner just after I got my car in May. I have been blessed with this car. I have had...

Hi Guys Just received my chip from JDM. I put the 2.93 pulley on the other day and it was a breeze. Got it from South Florida Pulley Headquarters. Terry Reals the owner is excellent and he has a lot of stuff in stock for our Cobra's!! NOW to save a lot of wasted time PLEASE tell me where the...

Anybody out there purchased and installed South Florida Pulley's 03 Cobra parts yet?? I spoke with the owner Terry Reals at length. He seems to have a solid background on our cars. As well as a long time history in the business. I ordered the 2.93" pulley (12.5 lbs boost), Gatorback belt...

Does anybody know if someone makes a replacement piece for the passenger side dash. The part of the dash that covers the air bag system and says Mustang on it now. Would like to find a matching one that says Cobra. Thanks NSR

We had our annual "Cruise Night" in Port Huron, Michigan this past Friday night. Great time, about 500 cars. 5 mile long cruise that lasts from about 6pm to midnight. Now the fun- Raced two Vette's and a Viper. The Cobra was king. Vettes were an 01 & 02. Not even close. The race set up was...

Hey Anybody else having problems with the shoulder belts staying in the brackets by the head rests?? Every time I use my belt it either gets tangled in the damn thing or most of the time just pops out. Totally worthless and the shoulder belt buckle ends up rubbing against the leather trim on...

I picked up the August issue of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords. Good article on the 03 Cobra vs the 02 Camaro SS. The magazine hated the stock Cobra shifter and put in a Pro-5.0 shifter. Anybody out there done this yet?? Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords is going to do an install article in their...

What a peice of cake. 30 minutes using a hoist. Old off, new ON! The FR-500 was ordered as the 2001 Cobra system and works great. All factory style hangers are welded on already. MUCH bigger pipes then the OEM exhaust. The kit is 3 peices. the X pipe with the mufflers and two tail pipes. Tail...

My car runs strong as heck in a straight line. I live in the country. There is a street with a great left turn off the road I live on. It is a blast to be in second gear, crank the wheel and stand on it as you are coming into that turn off about 30 to 40 mph. The road is flat and smooth. and...

I installed a K&N system this morning. K&N part # 57-2523-2 Very straight foward. Took about 40 minutes. Fits secure, looks great. No mods needed except to drill one hole for a bracket to secure it. And I had to loosen the clamp and rotate my mass air flow sensor in the duct about 15 degrees so...
