    Attention all 03-04 cobra owners..

    Hello all, I picked up my '04 vert yesterday and couldn't help but notice that the wheel weights were mounted on the outside of the rims. Just to confirm, I checked the remainder of the cobras in the lot, and they were all that way. After talking with the sales manager, he informed me that...

    Help with '04 Cobra convertible color decision..

    Ahhhh, Finally decided. Went with the Torch Red. I had the dealership order the black and took it out for a spin, very nice, though I was surprised at how much they toned down the noise level, doesn't really sound like a Cobra to me. First mod I guess. Anyway, I recall the days of cleaning...

    Help with '04 Cobra convertible color decision..

    Hey all, Just thought I'd do a quick tally and see what your opinions are on the color of a new Cobra convertible. I seriously can't decide between black or torch red, and I need to make the decision by tomorrow afternoon. Yes, I'm ridiculous and this is driving me crazy. Black looks...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    Fixed.. Finally all set on the brakes. I applied some anti-sieze compound to the caliper pins and took some of the grease off the back of the pads. Which one was causing the problem, I don't know, but I noticed a pretty big improvement when all was said and one :D , and I also ruled out a...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    I didn't disconnect any lines, just used the hanger method you mentioned. The old pads weren't too bad actually, so I didn't move the pistons much at all. Once the paste is compressed a few times, won't it pretty much be out of the way after that? Would the problem continue to persist? The...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    Thanks for all the info, I may indeed bleed the system one more time. We didn't notice any leaks the first time around so I can't see where air is getting in the system. However, the problem didn't start until after I installed the new front brakes, so could this lead to bad front calipers?? I...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    The brake gradually firms up when the car is running. I used a C clamp to compress the cylinders, nothing to fast though. Possibly the master is going, I'm replacing the calipers on Saturday to see if this will rectify the problem. As for a brake shop...that's where I took it before I took it to...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    The calipers look good, it's like the front pads haven't even touched the rotors yet! And that's with about 100 miles on the new ones. I took it to the Ford dealer today, they claim they can't find anything wrong. But, something tells me a spongy pedal isn't somthing to ignore. Anybody else have...

    Brake Problem, Help!

    Ok, so my 2000 vert V6 is eating up front brakes, again (60K miles). I replaced the pads and rotors, all brand new parts...here's my new problem- a spongy break pedal. I bled all the lines and the master cylinder and I can't find a darn problem anywhere. Calipers are good as well. But, what I...

    CD player broken, Ford blames Flowmaster

    I was very satisified with my Kenwood amp powering the 2 15s. I highly doubt 15s would fit nicely in a stang though, since I was using them in a Grand Cherokee. But now that I have a stang, I was actually considering putting a couple of small subs in the trunk (reduced trunk size with the...

    CD player broken, Ford blames Flowmaster

    Hey Mean03, Glad you're happy with the Alpine. I was just going to add that I've been installing systems since I was 16 and I've always been a huge fan of Pioneer head units, excellent quality and great features. I've had Kenwoods, Alpines, Sony's, JVCs, and Panasonics, and I really like...

    Help with problems on my new stang..

    Possible way to shut off belt minder Hey, In case you haven't tried this yet, this may work, it's right out of my manual, I have a 2000 V6 as well (since I found the seat belt chime to be annoying as well, I did this, and it worked). First, make sure... 1. Parking brake is set 2. Gear...

    More Dual Advice..

    Sorry for asking another dual exhaust question, but since this is my first mod to my 2000 V6, just wanted to get some advice from those of you who have added dual in the past. Any suggestions on whether to go with Borla, MAC, or Flowmaster? I hear they are all pretty good. Should I go just...
