    Rear End Not Centered Under Car!

    My 80k mile cobra IRS is off center towards the driver side at least 1/4" if not more. I am a huge fan of good stance so this really gets me. I have been trying to figure this problem out for awhile. When I measure from the quarter panel to the tire on both sides the driver side sticks out 1/2"...

    Confusing E85 readings?

    My cobra was tuned on e85 by Bob Kurgan and on the dyno sheet my AFR is right in 11.5-12.5 groove. I am in no way an experienced tuner that is why I am asking, but from what I have gathered from reading around 93 tune should read 11.5-12.5 on AFR and E85 should be much lower? I am looking into...

    E85 Looks yellow/orange!?

    I'm new to the E85 life and have only gotten fuel in my car and jug 4 times. I test it every time of course. Anyway this last time the fuel was yellow/orange, not cloudy or bright orange but has a very noticeable tint to it and it doesn't smell like E85 it just smells like fuel I guess. It...

Either way I don't plan on dropping my k remember again... what is the easiest way to tighten the...

    Wierd Power Steering Noise after new mods

    I've checked everything I can think of so I'm looking for advice, I recently had my k member out for header install and installed a 4# lower too.

    Rear End Not Centered?!

    So when I got the new tires on my 2003 cobra I was admiring the look and I realized that my rear end is not centered under the car? My driver side tire sticks out around 1/2-3/4 inch further than my passenger side. I have had the IRS out and replaced all bushings and bolts and the problem is...

    E85 life span?

    So I just had my car tuned on e85 by kurgan motorsports. We discussed that I obviously should not let e85 sit in the car all winter storage but I was wondering what is the max time I can let it sit. I only get the car out on nice weekends and for car meets and stuff. It could sit for a month...

    Are we throwing money away for our passion?

    I got to thinking today... I payed 20k for my cobra, down the road these next year's if I do everything I want to it I'll have 30-40k in it easily but it isn't worth that much even tho it's all there. Am I the only one that thinks like this? I don't plan on ever selling the cobra but it just...

The current topic is my rear end is gear whining louder than it ever has which is my main concern, it also wheel hops and clunks pretty good. All this started after I money shifted...
