    Keep 03 Cobra or 18 Gt350

    I have both and it depends on the type of car your prefer. My O3 has a lot of money and various suspension options (now has KW coil overs) over the years to try and get it right And despite my best efforts , is just ok IMO. It is an unrefined old school muscle car with the great low end torque...

    Are we going to see an Automatic GT350?

    I could'nt agree with you more. The whole driving experience is just less involved. I think Mfgr's full throttle shifting and rev matching manuals are almost as bad. I'm old school though...learned to drive on a manual and all 6 cars/trucks I have bought over the years that I drive are manuals.

    is there a way to replace the rear diff bushings without having to remove halfshafts, control arms etc...? I hate to have to do this as I have never removed halfshafts and do not have the patience seeing as my car has been on jacks for 4 months doing bushings and c/o's as time allows. Can...

    19x11.5 ford GT wheels on our terminators

    anyone thought of putting the ford GT wheels on our cars. The rears are 19x11.5 with ~7.3 BS. With a 1" spacer maybe they work (our stocks are ~6.12" BS). I know they are expensive....but an 11.5" wheel & forged..it would be nice.

    new whipple w/new W140ax compressor legal in CA?

    I recall the previous version of the whipple was 50 state legal (maybe I my memory is incorrect). I'm thinking the new version is not as FR's webpage says it's not legal for sale on smog controller vehicles. Anyone know if there are plans to legalize it or are we SOL in Cali? (this is for...

    as the title says....now I scrape mufflers all the time on speed bumps and even irregularities in the road (bunched-up pavement from wear) . Is there a ready to purchase EXHAUST option to better tuck mufflers up into the car? BTW I have a bassani CB. If there are no off the shelf options...

    Help!...anyone know the threads on our rear tie rod

    I did a no-no & tried the hammer method to try to remove one of the rear tie rods from the spindle assy (I rented a puller but it was too small). Does anyone know the threads on the tie rod (it's the one with the hole in it for a cotter pin & attaches the rear "spindle" to the tie rod)...

    anyone go from KB springs to MM coil-overs in a vert?

    anyone go from KB spirngs to MM coilovers in a vert? I just put on the front KB springs and I must admit I do not like the harshness of the ride. I get beat up pretty good on bad roads. This is magnified by the fact that I have a vert (w/FLSFS). I want some of you vert guys that went from...

    autopower bolt-in roll bar...good or bad?

    has anyone had any experience with these with a convertible? I want to do the SVTOA events and I rarely go to the strip. I like the idea of being able to remove it when I want to (vs. not be able to with welded in versions) and not having to pay an welder. your thoughts are appreciated

    SLP's 4pt. Front STB is .....

    In researching different options for STB's for the cobra, I saw this one. To me stiffeners connecting to just behind the headlights adds very little stiffness vs. most that, mount to the firewall. Why do we care if the headlights/front clip are moving relative to the strut towers? What we...

    brake upgrade questions

    I want to upgrade my front brakes. i was leaning towards the brembo "r" kit. Does it clear our 17" 03 wheels? If I wanted to go to a bigger rotor than the R's size say a 14" but use the R calipers, are there caliper relocation kits to do this? Who makes them & will they fit inside 18"...

    FYI: U may need spacers with 295/35-18 Toyos

    I installed my new toyo/AFS combo (18x9 275/35 & 18x10.5 w/295/35) & found that the driver's side rear tire hits the IRS bolt. I ordered 1/4" MM spacers as it looks like that's all I need. I will let you all know if it fixes the problem. I only mention this because some on SVT got away...

    ? re: cobra susp parts on an 03 cobra

    Will the 2000 cobra R springs lower our cars at all? I have a vert, what are the spring rates for the R springs verses our spring rates? Will our stock blisteins work with the R? Will the stiffer springs wear out the shocks much quicker? Anyone running the cobra R springs on a vert...
