    GOOD 10.5" rear wheels

    I havn't had much luck with rear wheels for the 04 cobra over the years. After i got the car in 2009, in 2010 i swapped the stock 17x9s on the rear to oem look alike knock off made in china "chrome" 10.5"s to put MT 315/35/17s on. Tire was great, wheel goddam heavy, but whatever, it was on the...

    Don't ever buy Snap On tools!

    I've known many mechanics over the years, all of which always seemed to be a$$ deep in debt with their "snap on accounts", most never make any money for all their hard work, but seem to own a boatload in "tool equity" supposedly. I'm not posting about the quality about snap on tools, we all...

    04 mach 1 has a bad PCM...

    narrowed it down to this finally. I checked on ebay for used PCMs... some sell 04 PCMs for $100... not sure if they're from v6, cobras, gt etc.. Someone told me any 04 mustang PCM would work, "it would physically hook to the harness", and i'd need it flashed form Ford.. I also see on ebay...

    racing suspension suggestions for 04 mach 1

    Car has all stock factory suspension and 12k miles on it. I rarely drive it, and likely it will be a road course track racing car trailered to and from the track. In NJ, we have Englishtown which has a descent sized road course and Millville in south jersey that has a pretty big one. NY has an...

    Dont buy any lights from DDM tuning! junk/months of shipment wait etc.

    So i've bought light kits from them since around 2010. I had original ddm/55w ballasts last for almost 3 years. suddenly stuff started to fail here and there, at the same time last spring, i bought two shipments "multiple items" in February 2013, and May 2013. I figured, instead of waiting a...

    help: 04 Mach 1 out of storage... cranks but never fires?

    First battery was pretty dead.. hooked it up, cranked and cranked, no fire though. Let it sit on charger all night. MOrning, cranked and cranked, would not even sputter to fire. Let car sit 4 days, tried again this morning, had a slight sputter at the turn of the key, then just cranking...

    Dont buy HID kits from DDM tuning.com

    Yes this is a big rant.. and a caution... I bought from DDM back probably 3 years ago now. Started putting their 9007 hi/low kits in the GTPs, then the Ford trucks.. it seemed every new kit was different than the last. Then some started to develop corrosion issues shortly after installation...

    new-er Audi S4 throws off K & Ka band rear radar?

    I guessed it was maybe a frontal crash avoidance system.. but no, radar detector did not go off when i was in front or side of him on a 2 lane highway, but soon as you get anywhere behind him, detector went nuts... I followed him on and off from VA to NJ.. he was from NJ/NJ tags too, people...

    Anyone here in the military? Court related

    Well not to bash all military members, but joining the army reserves or worse yet, trying to sign up to get a deployment because you owe debt to everyone in the world is just BS. I'll cut to the chase, guy we sued for a multitude of reasons that owed us money, both me and my girl, finally got...

    Running 200amp power to detached garage... subpanel or direct?

    Before you answer too much here... situation is that we ran 4/0 cable about 125' to our street pole where our power is fed to the house from our big detached garage feeding a meter pan/Eaton CH 200amp panel box. But now the power company claims they don't have enough power at "that" pole and we...

    NJ DMV showing tune has "unsupported" for o2 sensors vmp tuning re-tune 04 cobra?

    It could just be the miles, so first let me ask, how many miles are required after a re-flash tune for the computer to be ready for the motor vehicle agency to scan the odb? GMs are 50 miles, well most that i know, we drove 56 miles and it still says unsupported with a VMP tune utilizing the...

    Anyone have Jersey Central electric? Or have you ever added a new elec. service?

    This is interesting.. my uncle who coincidentally works for PSE&G for years has rarely heard of something like this happening.. Early 2012, we apply for electrical permit to add power to a detached garage "a big garage for most of us, but its for a 200A service. We install everything, and it...

    Need help drag racing 04 cobra !

    Well we've owned the car since 2009, i've never had it to the track. For the last few years, its had Mickey Thompson 315/35/17s on back so it has a chance of hooking up on the street. Keep in mind, the car isn't driven much, mostly by my girl, so i've only ever driven it maybe 2000 miles on...
