What did you do to your Cobra today?

It was sent out the day after I ordered it. Might have been the last one they had.

 

Yeah must have. They told me they had to make mine for me. Said 3 weeks or so

Changed the alternator which wasn't too bad of a job.

 

AC took a dump...had a buddy replace condenser(had a pin hole) and replace low pressure switch. Now, the AC is frosty! Also, small pinion seal leak was taken care of.

 

Looks like I need to replace the abs module.

 

Drove the piss out of it for the first time in 10 years.
Its finally back and sorted.
Me = Happy

 

@98 svt Congrats! Post up some pics I know you took some lol

 

I haven't even really taken many yet. It needs a real good cleaning/wash and then ill be sure to post some pics.
I'm not thrilled with the #s it put down, so I'll be taking it to Pete at Performance Dyno next spring. For now I'm just enjoying it.

 

What did she put down? As long as she stays together you're winning.

 

A little north of 450hp and 515tq at 14lbs of boost via a 67mm Precision turbo.

 

That's not too far from what you were trying to hit right?

 

Pretty close. Was hoping for 500/500, so the tq hit the mark. There's def 500hp in it though. It'll get there

 

So I was going to buy some spintech mufflers or even the borla kit. I found this local on craigslist and could not pass up the steal. 300. Everything brand new still in the box. So far I've got 1000 bucks in the exhaust for 400 bucks out of pocket. Bassani X will be here Tuesday so I can mount it all up

You may or may not like how that sounds, especially with an O/R X.

 

Installed my retrofit HID Headlights and new fog lights today. This was my 3rd retrofit and I must say they came out great. Also gave it a quick wash.

For anyone looking for new 94-98 fog lights, they are getting hard to come by. I ordered a set from LMR when they popped back up in stock. They are DEPO lights! I was quite happy to see them in the DEPO boxes. Nice lights. I may buy a spare set.

 

It's going to be loud that's for sure. If it gets too bad to me I'll try and get some lm2 or the power flo

Pete will take good care of you, Paul. But you already know that. Pete is to tuning what Scott is to detailing.

 

Bassani offroad x showed up today. Got it installed and fit like a glove

ive shown my 97 vert a lot of love recently. my car is no longer "low mileage" at 89,000 miles. shes starting to show her age. the clearcoat is fading on the bumpers and the rock chips are piling up. paint on the metal is ok, i digress. shes needed some basic maintenance...


I installed new Bilsteins front and rear, installed gabriel quad shocks because $100 for Bilstein quads is absurd.

installed a FR500 steering wheel in my tan interior. i wasnt sure id like the black/tan wheel but i like it much better in person.

installed new plugs (autolite iridium) and plug wires (motocraft blues, not FRPP blues).

purchased TMI pro-chicane seats and seat tracks. apparently, it takes like 8-10 weeks to fill the order. guess they have to grow the vinyl, lol. i cant wait for these to arrive. theres a warning about them not fitting in convertibles but im pretty sure its going to be ok.

bought trunk struts because theyre worn out and the trunk tries to kill me anytime theres a slight breeze lol. i also bought a drivers side mirror because im tired of having a mirror rattling around.

the car has been good to me over the past 10 years. ive replaced the top, alternator, battery, serpentine belt (original belt lasted 21 years), and a/c compressor. not sure how much longer ill keep it. hell, i might save up for a repaint and just keep it. itll basically be new again at that point. thanks for reading my rambling ass post.
