Hello, my uncle is selling his 2004 Cobra convertible. He’s offered to give me a little bit of a family discount at $25k. The car is a black on black convertible with ~65k miles. It comes with a second set of wheels/tires. They are OEM style but deep dish and I believe 18’s. It has an upper...

Hello, I'm in the planning stages of my next project Fox Body. I don't even currently have a car but want to get a solid budget laid out for each aspect of the car i want to upgrade. My big question for this thread is which top end kit is the best bang for my buck? I previously had a 1990 fox...

My ABS light came on the other day and now is on at all times when the car is running. From doing research on the internet, it seems like everyone suggests actually going to the dealer to get it diagnosed. Is this true? I have no issues with the braking system that I know, everything seems to...

I want to start pricing together all the parts i'll need to do a clutch replacement in my 98 Cobra. Anyone have recommendations for decent shops to do the work. I'm less concerned about price and more concerned it gets done correctly by people who know what they're talking about. I work near Pro...

I created a thread in the Road Kill section about racing an E46 M3 recently. What I didn't mention is at the top of 3rd and 4th, I was hearing pinging, as in detonation. My car is completely stock, like down to stock mufflers and intake tube. I just rolled over 86k miles today. As far as the...

**Not a clean race** (but finally my first encounter in my 98') Was on the freeway minding my own business (two lane) and a black e46 M3 comes up next to me and even though we both have tinted windows I could see him like staring at my car. There was a truck in front of him and a car in front...

Well, CEL came on before Christmas so I ran my scanner and P1516 popped up "Intake Manifold Runner Control Input Error Bank 1". Stayed on for about a day then went off. Hasn't come back yet. I ran my scanner yesterday again and it still showed up (even though the CEL was off). Guess its my...

Just throwing out a feeler for what I should put a couple things up for sale for based on experience. I have a set of four stock 98 Cobra rims with tires (~20% tread left). Rims are in 'good' shape. I plan on cleaning them up nicely but there is a small amount of curb rash on maybe one or two of...

This has now been going on for roughly a week. I've searched the internet and came across this guy who has the exact same problem and posted the issue in another forum (a couple years ago) but no one seemed to have an answer: http://youtu.be/U1v-PnZiAMs My Theft light will stay on when the car...

Well, I figured i'm starting to gather enough parts to start a small build thread. This 'build' is mainly suspension related. I bought the car a while back, but also had a 1990 GT that I had for a long time and put a bunch of money into... the Cobra was supposed to be just a fun DD. I ended up...

My CEL came on while driving home from work on the freeway today. No difference in driving ability even after a few restarts. Anyways, since I don't know what it is that is causing the CEL to come on, I'm assuming it's safe to drive to a shop tomorrow to get the codes scanned? I also revved it...

I'm sure this debate has been brought up before. BUT, I only ask now because MM is having their 25% off sale for Koni products. My whole original plan for the suspension on my 98 Cobra was do front coilovers using Bilstein struts and Hypercoil coilover kit. The PO of my car installed Edelbrock...

Are these decent tires for just a daily driver sports car? Reading the reviews people seem to say they are great for the money. I don't want to break the bank and am looking for (2) 265/35/18 and (2) 295/35/18 for my 98 Cobra.

Just an FYI, Maximum Motorsports has a free shipping special going on right now till like July 6th or something. It's a good deal because MM shipping is normally through the roof...

I used the search function but did not find an answer. I recently had my A/C system services. My low pressure side valve had a bad o-ring which led to the system releasing all the refrigerant. So, I had a shop replace the o-ring and vacuum/recharge the system. Now, when i'm driving (i'll use the...

Well, my wheel hub assemblies came in the mail today and I want to tackle the job next weekend. I have both driver and passenger side wheel hub assemblies and two new spindle nuts. Will I absolutely need new spindle nut dust covers? Any installation tips/tricks anyone recommends? I printed out...

Spotted one of these on the road the other day in Carlsbad, CA. Didn't know Saleen did work on Dodges but the car looked badass. The one I saw was black and had the actual SALEEN decal across the windshield.

So I have a pinion seal leak and a bad passenger side axle bearing. I've called the three most reputable shops in my area (San Diego, CA) and all have pretty much said during a normal 'gear job' they replace those anyways, giving me the impression its not really charged extra except for maybe...

I need to replace my steering rack in my 98 Cobra. I am going with - MM Urethane Rack Bushings PN 6-703-BL - A-1 CARDONE 222000 SVT Cobra Prod Code SPR-ZM 2003/2004 Cobra Rack My question is (and i couldn't find it using the search function) is they recommend replacing the PS lines while...

Hey all, I recently ordered a set of DDM HID's for my headlights and foglights. I got the headlights installed no problem and they look good (and they point down a little so I can't see them blinding anyone). My question though is... I ordered the 880/862/881/893/899/etc bulbs for the fog...

Just wanted to get a feel for what I have planned for my cobra seems like a good direction to take. Feel free to offer opinions. Car is a stock 98 Cobra with 73k miles Currently Installed Upgrades: -MGW Shifter -MM SS brake lines -Hawk HPS pads -K&N Air Filter -Corbeau LG1 Racing...

Just wondering if Maximum Motorsports has any times they have deals? I picked up a discounted set of FLSC's on Cyber Monday... anything else like that usually come around? Looking to purchase a couple more things and was just wondering. I search the Deal of the Day from time to time, but for now...

Yesterday, I was leaving work and heading home on a two lane highway when a late 60's Camaro SS comes around. He was behind me for a while, but then comes up quickly in another lane and passes me. I kind of make my way around some other cars on the road and slowly pass him. There were too many...

I took my car in to get some minor work done a little while back. When I went to pick it up the mechanic said that he noticed the idle was a little on the rough side so he used a infrared gun and checked all my header pipes. Said that my #3 and #7 cylinders were roughly 150* cooler than the...

Well, I think i've decided to replace my lowering springs and shocks/struts on the Fox. My current set up is an Eibach Pro-Kit with Tokico Blues. Ride sucks. The spring rates for the SS and Race springs don't seem too far off (700-850lbs front) from each other. Anyone have experience with...
