hey guys and gals. My current personal and financial situation are requiring me to off the Mach 1 and get something seasonable, so the CSVT comes to mind since I can afford to buy one outright and not finance. My question is this: are there anything I should look out for when inspecting on in...

reg form will be up in January.
and yup, I've already requested time off :thumbsup:
4th year attending, 1st year with teh Mach :rockon:
so after being couped up inside the house the past 2 days with the flu, I decided to take the Mach out for a spin. Nice sunny day, sorta chilly, but I still have a fever so everything is cold to me. I'm traveling on a 4 lane divided street that connects to atleast 5 housing communities. I pull...
someone(forgot who though) recently requested that I post these night shots of my Mach over here. Camera was a Canon PowerShot A70. Me and my brother(the camera's owner) used 2 parking garages in Los Gatos. Enjoy :beer:
so I'm headed home, windows down, tunes blasting, enjoying the drive. I come up to a light that I normally turn right at to enter out housing track, but once I saw what was just ahead of me at the light I decided to go straight. I was the 2nd car in the right lane, in front was a red '97 or...
so I'm cruising around, warm summer evening, windows down, stereo off so I can listen to the car echo off the walls :-D I'm driving on a 4 lane road that connects a few of the home communities around here. I see a pair of lights, low to the ground, coming up fast. As they get closer, I can make...
<-- see this grin? It's been 5 hours and it still hasn't left my damn face
neighbor's cousin has a 2001 with a Johnny Lightning pulley (showed 14# when I floored it on the Auto-Meter gauge), Johnny Lightning cold air, some type of exhaust, lowered and sway bars. God I love how it felt :-D...
tomorrow night is wednesday night bracket racing, so I came home from work and got the Cobra ready for the track since I go there straight after work. I get the drag radials on, remove the crap from the trunk and go out for a test drive. My housing community is off a long 4 lane street that's...
my birthday is this saturday, so I got an early gift from the grandparents. They covered the charges on these:
Next paycheck, I'm ordering 2003 Cobra struts (aka Bilsteins) and then it all goes together :-D
so, cruising home for lunch (fast food sucks after awhile), I'm sitting at the light, blasting some Metallica. Road is a 3 lane in each direction, except the far right lane merges into the center lane after this light. I'm in the left lane, an Escalade in the center and currently I can't see...
so me and my mom were off to get some x-mas shopping done. The Cobra had been sitting for the past 2 days, so it was time to take her out. We're sitting at a light, 2nd lane from the right. I need to be in the right lane as this enters the freeway, but a white 300zx TT was sitting there, so I...
hehehe, it's been awhile since I posted a kill. Unfortunately, it's crappy weather out here, but this AM, with the high winds, it dred up for the morning commute. Since I go opposite of the flow of traffic to work, I get to stretch the Cobras legs every morning. Now onward to the kill....
so...
no more bottle, time for Vortech! I finally decided to bolt a s-trim to my 106k old stock motor. Insane? You bet I am! So, outside of the standard S-trim kit, what else should I get? Fuel pump? Injectors? Here's what I run now:
- Steeda pullies
- C&L 80mm MAF
- custom CAI
- BBK o/r H-pipe
-...
or however you spell it :-p
I spent the weekend in the Bay Area, so I decided to attend some local street action with my old friends. Knowing this, I took my DR's and my bottle (bro's friend backed out :( ). We head off to a different meeting spot rather than the majority of the people that...
I decided to finish off what I had left in my bottle before I sell it to my brother's friend, so I bolt up the DR's and hit the local street races. Being new to this area, I had to do some driving but eventually found some. I followed this one group of 3 F-bodies, a couple of Supras, a C5, 1...
yup, used the nitrous. I was picking up some new plugs and a filter at the local speed shop. When I mention what car I had to the parts person, the guy next me at the counter opened his mouth and said "Cobra, huh? Give up, they're slow, my Chevy eats them for breakfast" :rollseyes I will not...
anybody want to recommend good all around lower control arms? I do alittle bit of canyon carving as well as 1/4 mile assault's with my Cobra. Thanks :)
