    Proud new owner of a 01 cobra coupe

    Congratulations on the car! I've had mine a couple years now and love it! As far as the owners manual goes, mine came with the standard manaul and an SVT supplement. I am out of town right now but if you want I can copy and scan documents at my office and get you the pertinent information...

    2001 cobra top end

    She had a little more to give - I just didn't have the nuckles to push it any farther. It was at a time when I was approaching the need for new tires, so I didn't want to press my luck. SVT's website lists the top speed at 150 MPH, but I don't know if it's limited to that or just what they...

    I've had mine up to 135-140. Catch up to things pretty fast at those speeds, don't ya?

    Just window shopping

    I would have to recommend doing everything in your power to get into an '03/'04. If you can wait until you have enough cash, anway. I couldn't and got an '01. Love it to pieces, but drool every time I see the 03/04 version. Nothing worng with the '01, don't get me wrong - but shop, shop...

    need some math help(insectide related)

    Your hose end sprayer should do the trick for you, regardless of how much water actually pumps through the thing. Mine has a dial that I can adjust to about 30 different settings in 1/2 ounce increments. Each notch is how much to mix per gallon, but it does not require me to run a gallon...

    new '98 Cobra, got questions

    My bad...I thought we'd all run the same. My '01 book is worthless to you, I'm afraid.

    new '98 Cobra, got questions

    From owners guide SVT supplement for '01 Trying to attach two pages of info from the '01 supplement. Hope it works and helps! I won't copy page 16 just to show you it recommends 91 octane since there are several replies indicating that already. The supplement is fairly small so if you want...

    can't get myself to order the mgw!!!

    I don't even remember which handle I chose, but I'm so happy with it I don't even care! Getting both as suggested would cover all bases. You will not be disappointed!!

    Driver's seat not secure

    Mine does the same thing - one for the "how common" portion of your post. As far as an easy fix goes, I'm as interested as you to see if anyone knows of any.

    How many miles do you have on your cobra?

    Mine has 45K (bought it with 28 on it). Try to keep as few miles as possible on it - store it during winter and leave it parked if there's even a possibility of rain.

    03/04 Cobra vs. STi

    I think you would have to be extremely lucky to find an '03/'04 in the $23K range. I see those years carrying anwhere from the high $28's to the low $33's. A years time and some pretty good haggling and you might be able to shave a grand or two from those numbers. Might want to talk to the...

    shifters......

    It's a piece of cake to change. The hardest part is getting the old sealant off. No, wait...the hardest part is waiting for the new sealant to dry before driving it!! Enjoy!

    Cobra or Lightning???

    I've driven '01 versions of both (I own the cobra, my Dad the Lightning) and I really don't think you'll be disappointed either way. I lean toward the snake myself, but that's just me...and I like shifting. The truck sure is nice, though, and I'd vote 50/50 comparing an '01 to an '01. Putting...

    shifters......

    Haven't tried any others, but as pleased as I am with the MGW I won't need to.

    Hi, new Cobra owner

    Welcome, sir! Like everyone else said - the mod bug bites hard around here. I've learned that there are way more ideas and suggestions here than I have money! It won't add horses, but I'd suggest picking up the MGW short throw shifter as you make modifications. It's not expensive, easy to...

    Are you glad you got a Cobra?

    There are almost no circumstances where I would recommend getting anything but a Cobra. The only situation I can think of where I might is if a person has the coin to buy, say, a Ferrari. I know of no better bang for your buck than a Cobra. I have no regrets in getting mine and plan to keep...

    Need some help...

    You should have no problem getting into an '01 for under 20K. I paid right at 20 for mine a year and a half ago with 28K miles on it. I've heard talk of coupes coming in around the 17-18K range these days, so I suspect that you could get a convertible with 20 to spend. I drove a brand new...

    B&M, MGW, Steeda Shifters...please chime in.

    I threw the MGW on my '01 (3650 tranny) a few weeks ago. I could not be happier with it! I didn't think there was anything wrong with my stock shifter, but now that I have a comparison I can say I would have swapped it immediately had I known then what I know now. Never shifted one of the...

    Stangnet got me let go from work

    Sorry to hear that, man - that bites! Had you logged on at work? (I am only logging on when I'm at work, so I'm just curious.) How did they know what posts were yours...and how on earth can they justify firing you for offering your insight? Crappy deal!
