    BIG TIME EMRGENCY...03 COBRA, HELP.

    That (disconnecting the battery cable) is probably exactly why you have no codes in the ECU. Your radio presets are retained in the radio. I do this all the time to clear the KAM while programming my 01 cobra. When you do this it actually sets a code its called OBD II drive cycle not complete or...

    import wants to race

    Yeah I can confirm that. When I got my 01 cobra I took her to the track to get a feel for her. Ended up getting next to an AWD talon with aftermarket turbo and maybe more??? But the bottom line was his 12.40 pass just plain smoked my stock Cobra's 13.88. Of course like I said mine was bone stock...

    Seat Covers.....

    Man I looked for months to find a good set. Never did find any. I looked at the ones from SVT at a ford dealership and I thought they looked cheap. Also while looking at them installed on a seat in the catalog they dont seem to fit very good. Finally I just bought a set from the local parts shop...

    Yeah I got the same 03 AFS wheels and went with a 295 any more would rub. But I know they sell spacers and button head bolts for the IRS. Its supposed to give you a little more room. Anybody use any of this stuff. I would like to go with a 315 next time around. One more thing if you load the car...

    You know the only person that can truely answer your question is YOU. If you want is bad enough you can go get it now. If you got an 02 thats paid for thats 10k of the price there. And I dont think you got a snowballs chance in hell of getting 10-12k in 07 for an 02(is it a coupe?). I just...

    montly payments on an 03 cobra

    Well I work as an engineer in the automotive industry. I just cleared 60k on my last pay check. I bought my house 10 years ago and I think it is lowest bill I have every month.

    Which MAF for 12psi of boost?

    This subject was very confusing for me before I educated myself on the topic. Maybe I can shed some light on it. Its not so much that its calibrated for 24# injectors nor is it the flow of the meter. When a company manufactures and calibrates a MAF for xx# injectors what they are really saying...

    2001 Cobra Common Problems?

    Oh yeah I forgot about that defrost vent popping up. Another bad thing was I had what was possibly the worst dealer in the world. I have had to fix everything on the car myself. Except the throwout bearing but I'm sure thats coming. You guys seem to have had bad luck with the 3650 but mine has...

    Question concerning wheel size & ground clearance

    firme's got it down. The first number is section width in mm's and the second is called aspect ratio and is expressed as a percentage of section width and obviously the last is rim diameter. Why they size tires this way I do not know for sure I used to think it was the whole ISO/9000 thing. If...

    Which MAF for 12psi of boost?

    I can't say for sure because I havent tried the stock MAF. But I am in the process of installing a D1SC w/intercooler on my 01. When I was researching the subject everything I was told or read says NO. I went with the Pro-M 80mm univer. and 42#ers. Not that I prefer the Pro-M I really dont have...

    2001 Cobra Common Problems?

    Well I ordered my 01 in Jan. of 01 delivered on April 14. Before I go on I must say that others tell me my expectations were to much and that I am anal over this car. With that said upon delivery the driver tail light had water in it. The finish of the paint sucked solvent bubbles in several...
