Totally agree with the needed brake upgrade. I was set on the 00R set, but this review makes me question my choice. Just got to make sure they fit my CCW’s.

My buddy has a set of ccw classics 18x11 I can try and put on my car to see if they fit for you. What ccw setup do you have?

I’m running the Classics as well, but I can’t remember the off set. Once I get the off set I’ll let you know.

Thanks Kyle!!

Small update. No idea why I waited so long for a shorty antenna lol but here is the 3.5" one from blackpath off of amazon. Have a few more visual mod/replacement parts coming this Friday as well.

Finally replaced the old nasty hood blanket. Also not happy with the new cobra emblem (not the same emblem as advertised in online pics) so I ended up dipping the original (Ill get some pics of what it looks like all black)

Little brake comparison video. Comparing the stock 13" 2 piston cobra vs my 14" 4 piston Wilwoods.

So KyleSVT is still alive. Winter was pretty cold an awful low of -60 with wind chill, but the cobra is finally getting some work done!
Rebuilt the oil cooler (has had a very small coolant leak for a few years now) Just replaced all the gaskets on the inside of it.
Adding brake cooling ducts
FT 9295N Kit SN-95 Brake Duct Kit, Neoprene Hose sm.jpg

Front rotors to 2 piece slotted
FTBR 13inch Rear Brake upgrade (Red calipers of course to match the front)

Also finally getting rid of the stock steering rack. Mine had a stupid amount of play in it. Felt like I was driving an old F-150 with 200k miles on it lol

These were fun to try to cap off lol

And here is the new rack. It's the Flaming River 12:1 ratio rack. So should be much quicker than the stock 20:1 ratio and even faster than the cobra R at 15:1. Absolutely gorgeous rack lol
so only problem is that I already have the solid steering shaft from them but for whatever reason their steering shaft doesn't work with their rack lol So had to order an adapter joint.

Looks like I need to sand my exhaust again too

So that's it for now. Will be doing videos once everything is done of course. But can't wait to drive the car again even though it will only be for a few months lol I need to move. So please subscribe to my YouTube channel so I can move to Florida lol

If you are going to track it hard then the 00R isn’t optimal. For the street the 00R brembos are fairly stout imo.
