I need some input for my buddy who bought my '03 Cobra. He spun out at Willow Springs and ruined the Fluidyne that I installed on the car when I owned it. :(
He is considering a Gords as a replacement. Any feedback as to which is better as far as performance? Also, is the Gords a...
Does anyone know of a good alignment shop for open track (Willow Springs big track) and street set up? My buddy just had the motor replaced in his '03 and they had to remove the caster/camber plates and strut tower brace so I am sure the alignment got messed up.
I have been trying to...
Due to engine replacement caused by spark plugs loosening and blowing out of cylinder head, the engine was pulled revealing a worn clutch and heat checked flywheel. Thread on this subject: here
Stock flywheel:
Since the stock flywheel is not serviceable, it is necessary to replace that...
My buddy's T3 developed what seemed like a misfire on one cylinder along with some odd noises. We took it to an independent mechanic today who found the problem. The number 3 spark plug on the passenger side of the engine had come loose and worked its way all the way out of the cylinder had...
I have left and right Saleen sidescoops for '03 or '04 Cobra. They have been impeccably painted with DSG/Clearcoat Finish to perfectly match our cars. I paid $200 for the scoops and $200 to paint them and will sell for $300 obo. They are in perfect, new condition, never installed. Easily...
Well, it has been a fun 3 years. But the time has come to say goodbye to the T3 and say hello to the Z06. Since the Terminator is being sold tomorrow my new handle will have to be X-terminator ;-) .
By the way, the Z06 is absolutely awesome... :pepper: It is a marriage of American...
I took my car into Star Ford in Glendale (the dealership where I purchased my T3) to have the throwout bearing replaced. With only 13,000 miles on the car this is definitely premature failure for the bearing but since it's a warranty item I wasn't alarmed too much. After they began work on the...
I learned my lesson, I will never buy anything from those thieves ever again. I bought a strut tower brace from them which turned out to be very shoddy. The welds were a joke, the construction and design looked feeble and it was far lighter than I expected.
After I received the KB unit...
We just replaced our UPR Blue Thunder shifter (identical to Steeda Tri Ax) today with a Pro 5.0 which I ordered from StangShifters.com. The UPR shifter (for sale) is a very good shifter and much better than stock, however it is a bit notchy.
The Pro 5.0 is slicker and quicker. Installation...
This afternoon I was traveling n/b on the Golden State Fwy just south of Stadium Way driving in the #2 lane. A glance in my driver's sideview mirror revealed a California Highway Patrol cruiser about 1/3 of a mile back in the #1 lane (fast lane) gaining on me.
I was doing about 67 MPH moving...

This is a MUST SEE video! Well worth the lengthy download - even with dialup. It took me 102 seconds with DSL.
Unbelievable that the driver walked away from a crash like this, I'm guessing 200 km/h by the time he starts rolling over. It appears that one tire started disintegrating and...
Seemingly like everyone else, I began looking for what I now realize are the sensational mods first on my T3. In other words, mods to increase the already plentiful horsepower on the T3. If I had it to do over again, I would definitely not look at increasing RWHP right off the bat and focus...
I have a vibration which starts at about 110 MPH and gets worse the faster I go from there on up. It seems to be the driveshaft since there is no noticeable shake in the steering wheel. Anyone else experience this problem?
The MagnaFlow catted X-pipe/catback system, obviously, is a big improvement over stock exhaust on the T3. This is true in terms of performance and the sound of the exhaust. My only complaint with the Maggies is that the supplied tips are too small and not representative of the overall quality...
This isn't just another post about the very popular and well proven Accufab TB. This post will share some insight into the quality of the good people who are Accufab.
Very recently my wife encouraged me to contact Accufab directly to immediately order and then go and pickup an Accufab...
NEED MORE LEGROOM IN YOUR 03 COBRA?
Since I first took a test drive in December of last year, until buying my 03 DSG last month I have had a serious problem with legroom in the Cobra. The single most important modification I have wanted and needed in the car is about 2 inches more legroom...
I got into a spirited chat session with a Z/28 fanatic who was trying to tell me that the 03 Cobra's 6 speed is identical to his Z/28 trans and that either would not stand up to anything greater than 475 RWHP. I didn't press for the source of his information.
I know that there are members...
