My fiancé and I were on our way back from our anniversary dinner and as I was about to go straight through a light that just turned green I saw the unmistakable look of a Ferrari turning left. I didn't have to think twice, I immediately followed in pursuit. The road was empty by the time I...

To make a long story short, almost the entire driver's side of my car is getting re-painted. Would a nice glaze and wax be sufficient since it's new paint? Or should I do some SSR1 while I'm at it? I just want to get this new paint protected and I'll go back over the rest of the car once...

I've finally got my 315 Hoosier DRs on my 10.5's for when it's dry out and now the 315 Nittos that are on my 9's are about finished. I don't need two sets of DRs so I'm looking for something that will do well in the rain. Right now I'm considering the GS-D3 275/40/17 or KDW 285/40/17. The...

I put my camera on a tripod before changing my rims/tires yesterday just for comparison purposes, it's pretty cool if you view them in a slideshow you can actually see that the car sits higher on the Hoosiers. This was the first time that the Hoosiers had been on my car and I love them. Even...

Given that an SRT-10 Quad Cab will run about a 14 second 1/4 mile, the outcome is quite obvious. I think this guy actually thought he had a chance with his almighty viper engine in a 5000+ lb truck. But if an SRT anything is next to me and wants to run em, I'll glady oblige. We were merging...

I bought them from Lethal Performance for $65.95 shipped. I'll let them go for $50 shipped in the U.S. They've never been used, HPP recommended a colder plug. I can post pics if necessary.

Snapped some pics while I was at the car show today. The tungston GT500 coupe was definetly the best color combo of the three GT500's that were there, although the blue isn't bad either. It will be interesting to see how the pulley swaps go on these cars that's for sure....

We could only get one short run in due to traffic but I was happy with the outcome to say the least... Started in 3rd gear b/c 2nd was at 5k and with 4.10s I would be shifting very soon. We ran to the top of my 3rd gear before we had to shutdown, the vette did not have to shift either so I...

Here are some pics and a quick vid from Hallet today. I was suprised at the number of (real) Ford GTs that showed up and at the lack of terminators. The GT500 had a fair amount of blower whine coming around the track for it being stock. Certainly louder than my stock terminator was that's for...

Put the new rims on today, still missing the center caps though as you can see. I think they look great and it's hard to find pics w/ anthracite FR500's on a screaming yellow cobra so here they are ;-) The pics at the end I shot just for fun at the airport while we were there...

I'm finally going to break down and put a 2.93 on w/ the idlers. Can someone confirm that a 75.5 belt will work? Also, is there a chance that I will need a BAP, injectors or MAF? Which one tends to be a problem first? All existing mods are listed in my sig...

Decided to clean it up a bit today (don't look too closely - lol)...

I just noticed this sound today after getting back from the Ford dealership for an oil change (5w20 synth.). I traded my STi in for the car 3 weeks ago and the service guy today guessed that this was probably the first oil change ever done on the car, it now has just over 11,500 miles. This was...

I'm highly considering the purchase of a like-new '98 Cobra (Red, 6400 miles, perfect condition). Is there any thing I should now about before I buy? Any real/big known problems? I'm sure this has been asked before but the search is still down and I need some serious input on this.

Here they are, just hosting them for kaboom... http://svtp.dathorn.com/100_0280.zip http://svtp.dathorn.com/100_0295.zip

First off, if anyone knows or is the owner, I'd like to know more about what all is done to it and what year it is. It's a red Lightning with an exhaust at least along with a 3 pod a-pillar full of gauges. I was just driving down riverside tonight here in Tulsa with a buddy of mine (in the...

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I'd just like to know as I've been thinking about it and it bugs me. Would a bad gas cap, like one not sealing off entirely, have any affect on fuel pressure or even have the possibility of causing the car to run leaner than normal?

Lets just assume one had destroyed the motor in their 01 Cobra (heh). How difficult would it be to install an 03 Cobra engine into the car? Would the same transmission still be useable at all? Has anyone done this? Tried searching here but couldn't come up with anything relevant. Assuming...

I just got my car back with a Procharger P-1SC installed. Right now it's slow as hell - it is running extremely rich with the chip that I was sent. I'm going to get it dyno tuned early next week, how lean (or less rich, whichever) can I go and still be fairly safe with the tune?

For those of you that have made the dive...what exhaust are you using with the GT's live axle after the swap? I'm looking for suggestions as my replacement should be built by sometime next week. Currently I have the Flowmaster American Thunder and I'm kind of wanting something that will sound...

Does anyone know a place to buy cobra windshield banners besides Graphic Express? I've already wasted nearly $45 on their product which was obviously not made correctly in addition to the conflicting instructions that were sent with it which resulted in tears on the lettering and half of the...

Does anyone know of a *good* shop in Dallas that could do a rear end swap? (my IRS to GT solid axle) I'd rather not just open a phone book and randomly pick one that I know nothing about. I've found someone to provide the donor GT rearend and we're meeting half way so I can't exactly do this in...

I've been planning on just swapping out my IRS for with a solid axle but this thread has made me wonder otherwise: http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=74336 Is there really a sure/good solution to this that is cheaper and easier than doing the solid axle swap? I...

Well, due to the lack of anything better to do the Tulsa County PD just gave me a ticket for improper muffler and a yellow light violation (running it, heh). Does anyone know how many points are given for the yellow light one? I assume this would be for Missouri since that's where my license...
