    18x10.5?!?!?

    I have AFS 18x10.5's with 295/35/18 Toyo Proxes on my 99 w/ an 03 Cobra IRS which has the same dimensions. One of the bolts is close but it hasn't rubbed yet!

    t45 to t56 swap?

    I understand your concerns about the T45 -- I had the same ones at a lower power level (than you would be boosted). In hindsight I think it is a very strong trans. Sure the syncro's can't hold up to constant powershifting at high RPM but will you need to do that as often with boost?

    t45 to t56 swap?

    Interesting... Who told you it was a syncro bent & that the assembly was at fault? From my limited knowlegde about the internals of transmissions, a syncro could be chipped and a shift fork could be bent. An improper shift can bend a shift fork or ruin a syncro. I'm not saying you did this...

    t45 to t56 swap?

    Man sorry to hear of your probs. Walsh Motorsports put mine in for me and I have not had one problem. I beat the piss outta mine but I have a lot less power than you. Hell I beat the piss out of my T45 and it held up just fine. What did they charge you last time they did service? Is Walsh...

    t45 to t56 swap?

    The T56 is a great street trans. I love everything about it except the too tall first gear. I'd love to get the 6th gear swapped for the .50 and go 4.56's but I'd probably kill my car. Right now I don't launch fast because I have an aluminum flywheel (very light, revs like a maniac) that...

    Predator question for those in the know..

    1). It's possible but that is the first I've heard of it. 2). No they don't just reflash for the hell of it, they will if part of your service includes reflashing (99 recall, ECU update/replacement). It isn't that common. Also as stated in the predator manual, put your factory tune back...

    Engine is shot

    What are your long term goals for the car? A rebuild sounds like a good idea to me. While I do like the 03 motor I would not choose it for my car, I'd choose to build up the motor that came with my car. Twin turbos is my long term goal, that is many years away though unless I win the lottery :)

    new tires and wheels on my 99

    THX! I can't believe how much it cost to get her on the road but what the hell, I wanted to drive her before winter is here. No I didn't make it to MA. Mainly because of poor planning on my part. I just got my car on the road for the first time this year ($$$ probs) on Aug 21 (Saturday)...

    Need new clutch opinions/experience please...

    If your talking to me, yes I got an 03 Cobra trans and yes it has the stock .63. This is why I haven't gone 4.56's yet.... You can't go wrong with the setup I've got if you ask me. The guys that did the install know more about it but I know they said it could handle a lot more power than I...

    99 Cobra strange noise from engine

    Ahh let me guess, midpipe to manifold bolts (probably the bottom one) on the passanger side? Damn that one's a bitch to tighten! When I did my header install in my driveway with hand tools that was the single bolt I couldn't get tightened and I had an exhaust leak. I took it to my friends...

    Need new clutch opinions/experience please...

    My T-56 install was done at D&D performance in Wixom, MI. I believe they purchased the pressure plate from Ford Racing but am unsure. The car is completely different since this install was done. The clutch absolutely rocks. It took me a week or so to get used to how the new setup engages...

    Double Clutching?

    You broke a forum rule... search for topics before posting a duplicate question. This has been covered many times.... anyway, here is my thoughts... If you don't know what this is, do some reading of how transmissions work and how the different "shafts" (input, output, intermediate) work...

    weird thump from t-loc backend

    When you say bind when not going straight I think trac-lok problems.

    Has anyone actually used the K40 Laser jammer?

    Nice read, thanks. I was skeptical at first since the manufactoror was providing the equipment and was involved in the testing. It does sound like they did fairly un-biased testing. I've had blinder M10's for years and think they're worth every penny. It seems they've gone up in price...

    99 Cobra strange noise from engine

    It could be the drivers side PCV. I had some noises that I pinned down the the PCV valve. While the motor is running unplug it from the drivers side and stick your finger on it and see if the noise goes away.

    Need new clutch opinions/experience please...

    I love my Billet Aluminum Flywheel, McLeod dual friction clutch w/ King Cobra pressure plate and Firewall Clutch Adjuster! It is very streetable and can hold up at the track.
