Guys, Due to an earlier than expected need to relocate, I have to get rid of this car fast. Would love to sell it properly, but just don't have the time. Selling for what the market will bring. This could be a steal for someone. Check it out here...

i am looking at a pair of 15x8 prostars with 26x11.5 et streets. owner claims they have 4" of backspacing. question: will these look retarded? i've always heard to go with at least 5.5" of backspacing at least on these cars. and if anyone has pics of 15x8's on cobras could you post them...

A few days ago, I was pulled over in my Tahoe around 1am in by Scottsdale PD for my license plate light being out. I was given a big ticket for a registration issue (a long story which will end in court). When I got home that night, I saw that one of the two license plate lights was working...

K, I know I pulled the idiot card on this one, but hear me out. While on vacation in Orange County, I overdrafted pretty bad on my checking account, enough to cause 8 overdraft fees totaling $264. The actual amount overdrawn was only like $35, since all the transactions were lunch or coffee...

so i've decided to bite the bullet and rebuild my stock longblock myself. i'll have about a month this summer where there will be garage space, people to help me out, and time for me to do this. forgive the long post which i'm sure will develop but i have a number of questions...btw, this combo...

Best Offer: Wheels / tires from '97 cobra + Nitto drag radial's...BAY AREA, CA Selling the stock set of wheels and tires off my '97 cobra. The wheels are cosmetically and mechanically PERFECT (no curb rash) but DO NOT have centercaps. Tires are BFG Comp T/A 245's and have lots of tread left but...

finally got a chance to drive my friends blown '96 cobra. the car is abolutely pristine for its miles and having run boost most of its life. pulls just like mine. however, when i was driving it, i ground the hell out of second gear when clicking off a shift around redline...things winds up so...

Let's see, I'll try to make this as specific as possible. I'm contemplating having my Cobra's motor rebuilt w/ stonger pistons and rods when I go back to school in mid-January (car will just be sitting at home anyway). So, say if I supplied the pistons, rings, rods, misc. parts, etc., how...

Well look at this beauty. [/URL][/img] The car developed this problem in August while it was being tuned. I have since replaced coil packs and plugs (tr6's gapped at .34) and taken it back for a retune with no luck. It still feels like the damn thing hits a wall around 6k. The graph shows...

Can this be done? I've been looking at powerpipe but don't want to lose my STB. Are there any aftermarket braces that would accomodate a powerpipe and still allow my stock hood to close?

well after finally securing a good, covered parking spot, i am bringing my car to school. yay! a big issue i need to tackle before driving it here is the brakes. for about 2 weeks before i left i had an off and on squealing of the front brakes. sometimes they'd squeel when i wasnt even...

Well i finished my battery relocation today. What a bitch that was. between the battery box and h-clamp being the wrong size :cuss: (screw you summit), ****ing up my back when routing the positive cable, and IMMENSE trouble lowering and raising a near-full gas tank for the box bolts, i had a...

how would one go about siphoning or draining gas from the gas tank? i dropped my tank a few inches to do bolts for a battery relocation (it's nearly full) and am having a hell of a time getting it back up. i have a siphon but when i stick the siphon hose down the gas fill it gets blocked and...

well, in the ongoing surgery to my cobra before i get it tuned, i'm going to be installing 42lb'ers tonight. my main question is will i need to replace the upper intake gasket? i've heard both yes and no. all in all it seems like a pretty straightforward unbolt-and-put-back-together kind of job...

to remove the FMU, would i just reconnect the FMU inlet and outlet lines to make one continuous return fuel line? and then reconnect the vacuum fitting to the factory regulator? and then junk the FMU and vacuum line? this seems right but too simple....am i missing something?

will an 80mm pro-m maf bolt up on my 97 cobra? i'm running the air intake tubing that came with an s-trim kit and the stock maf currently. the guy i may be buying the pro-m off of says it was on his '96 procharged gt in a draw thru setup. the maf is calibrated for 42lb injectors which i will...

earlier this morning i opened the hood to see my belt partailly shredded. last week i replaced a grenaded vortech idler pulley and the car ran fine with no alignment problems until this. the belt jumped out a rib (away from the engine, toward the s/c) and shredded off one rib on the belt. the...

I'm going to be installing some 03/04 cobra injectors (39#) and an 03/04 cobra maf on my '97, in place of the FMU. will it be safe or even possible to limp down to the dyno tuner instead of trailering the car there? tuner is about 30 miles away on highways and surface streets. or could i...

i just finished applying a full poorboys lineup to my white 97 cobra and damn does it look nice...but i was wondering if i could apply some of my clearkote wax as well. here is the list of poorboys products i used. car was claybar'ed before hand. all products were applied with a porter cable and...

well shiiiit, more and more i'm noticing a loud tapping noise coming from my s-trim. it seems most apparent on cold starts but is defintely there all the time, and i'm pretty sure it's coming from the head unit itself. the best way i can describe the sound is a very fast, middle-pitched tapping...

just purchased a 97 cobra last week and am in the process of draining the coolant and adding a more water-biased mix to suit the 115 degree temps phoenix has been seeing. long story short, only about 6 quarts have drained from the radiator drain plug...and i dont know why. shouldn't i be seeing...

Ok, ok, I know the answer...."much safer than street racing", but can someone point me toward where I can find some statistics about how safe they really are? Like deaths/serious injuries per xxxxx amount of passes down the 1/4? I ask because of an ongoing argument with a friend where I've taken...

When using the black background for the site, the white box for voting for polls is the same color as the link to "view poll results". Is there any way we can change the link color to something other than white so it can be more visible. Hopefully this will cut down on bogus votes because I know...
