    Stock suspension, alignment won't dial into spec...

    '03 Cobra 'vert. Stock suspension and wheels. Getting uneven tire wear, so I took it to the Dealer (yeah, I know) for alignment. They adjusted it as close as they could, but weren't able to get it into spec (pic of results attached). I was told that I need a "camber kit" to allow them to...

    WTB: Stock 03/04 Cobra Pulley Cover

    Want to Buy a stock pulley cover for '03 / '04 Cobra. My upper stud broke at the cover, probably due to a mechanic leaning on it :-/ I've had it tack-welded back together, but I'd like a good, solid original to put on the shelf for the future. Thanks, Mike B. [email protected]

    Intercooler leak? Replacement options?

    Ok, I'm pretty sure I have an intercooler leak. I have been losing intercooler coolant slowly for a while now. Had to pull the unit to replace the EGR hose due to lean codes, and this is what it looks like inside.... Does this look like a leaking intercooler to you? (it sure does to me) What...

    One More Gone: 1FACP42D4PF175090

    ...or at least "Well Toasted". I guess it may be possible to save it, but probably not cost effective. I'm guessing it is destined to be a donor car. 1FACP42D4PF175090 Copart Looks like it was a teal w/ sunroof. Not sure what color interior was originally, but it's black now >.>

    Cleaning the Throttle Body?(getting a kinda "low power" feeling)

    Hey Fellahs, I did some searching and didn't really find a definitive answer on cleaning a Terminator throttle body. I'm getting a kinda "low power" feeling, so I picked up some TB cleaner yesterday and when I got home I noticed it says NOT for supercharged vehicles... Some threads here...

    New Tire time again...

    Ok Fellahs, Time for new tires again, so I'm gonna ask for some input, again. Stock wheel size (275/40ZR17), and I'm currently driving on Nitto 555's. I like the 555's ~ they hop alot less than the other tires I've had in the past and they seem to grip decent wet or dry. Car is my...

    Lost one in LA Windstorm :-(

    Looks like a silver coupe got munched. Spotted it on the ABC World News tonite. World News With Diane Sawyer - ABC News Hit the passadena winds story, and the Cobra is at about 1:50 into the story. Is it anyone here? Either way, bummer of a deal, but it could have been worse. :(

    Did some Autocross this weekend...

    Had a blast. Only my second time autocrossing. My car is bone stock (unless you count K&N filter and stock / canned Predator tune). Yeah, I know a convertible isn't really the best choice for autocross, but when it is what you have then you go with it. Noticed that the car pushed like a...

    Hrm... Sonic Blue possibilities...

    Sonic Blue, Sterling Gray to make a return to the Mustang’s color options | Mustangs Daily Interesting to consider the possibility of color changes available late 2012. Wonder if SB will replace KB, or if they will simply add SB to the mix to reduce the amount of KB orders to match the...

    Red Pedal Tags

    Hey Fellahs, spotted this on ebay the other day, and thought some of you might be interested. I'm not affiliated with the seller, but I recall some mention of these tags in recent threads. Thought this would fit in the Terminator Talk forum rather than the Market, since I'm posting for for...

    Stumble at 3000rpm...

    Hey Fellahs, I've been searching around here and not finding what I'm looking for, so I'm posting. I'm getting what feels like a loss of power / "flat spot" at around 3k rpm. Only seems to happen when i'm gettin on it. When I do a non-WOT, modest but aggressive acceleration it seems...

    Boss Block?

    Hey, is the Boss block Aluminum or Iron? Just curious, but I would think since the Shelby has an aluminum block that they would use that for something like the Boss. But then again, it is "just" a souped up GT, so costs might dictate Iron block. :??:

    Battery Storage?

    Ok, I know you guys are gonna think I'm nuts (and you are half right, i'm sure), but it is finally time to replace my original battery. Now my "dilema" is that I want to keep my original battery...for *cough* collectibility *coughcough* reasons. What would be the best way to save / store it...

    "...the latter-day Boss 302 comes with a roof panel coordinated to the color of the side C-stripe. Competition Orange, Performance White, Kona Blue Metallic, Yellow Blaze Tri-Coat Metallic and Race Red are the exterior color choices." Side stripes are Black or White, but I haven't seen what...

    LS not street legal?

    "Also, for those who want optimal track capabilities, the 2012 Boss 302 Laguna Seca is available for just $47,990 – but keep in mind that the Boss 302 Laguna Seca package does not come with a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) thus it is not street legal." The 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302...

    Trackey - standard or option?

    Hey Fellahs, So some of the stuff I've read implies that Trackey is a dealer installed option, while other info implies that it is standard on all the Boss cars. What is the real info?

    Sequential Turnsignal help?

    Hey Fellahs, I'm reposting this here (from the "Exterior" section) cuz it will probably get more traffic here, and maybe I'll have an answer by lunchtime :-) I'm putting in a "Brake Override Module" for my sequential taillights - this will make the brake lights all come on normally, but the...
