    Gas pedal recall?

    I had to go to the dealer and just for fun I took mine in with the letter and told them to fix it. The look on the service guys face was worth it all. He handed me the little plastic thing and said "Here! now they will stop sending you the letters"

    Thinking about suspension upgrades

    If you are happy with the car then the best mod is more track time. The loose nut behind the wheel always needs work. If you really must do more things to the car then... Switch to the 18" rims. Bigger rubber up front. It must under steer real bad with those small tires. Get rid of the...

    blew my engine ..

    You have a 97 cobra motor? If so then you have a teksid block. Did the block get destroyed or did it just spin some bearings? If it was me I would just rebuild the one you have. If it is rebuildable then don't swap it for newer one. They are not as good.

    2003 Cobra 1st Gear Problem

    And you base this info on what? 1st doesn't have different synchro's. It is a fairly common issue with the T56 to not want to go into 1st at a stop. Its the same for the vipers and vettes. When you are sitting you can either double clutch or just do a quick 2nd then 1st to rotate the shaft a...

    03 cobra s/c belt tensioer ?

    So you have 3 - 100MMs and 1 - 92 mm with a 2.76 Dia blower pulley? you are using a metco bracket with one of the 100MM pulleys? I dont know how much the metco bracket needs as far as belt size but that combo with the Billetflow bracket would use the stock size belt. You do still have travel...

    Rotors: Best Bang for $$

    Beyond over rated. If you brake hard they are going to fail. The holes just promote cracks and the rotor will split. When I first got my cobra I was dumb and got Brembo drilled and slotted. Two sets actually. First set lasted three 20 minute sessions at Big willow before there was a loud “Tink”...

    What do you think: Billet grille

    That is a AMB transponder. It sends out a signal that is picked up by a loop in the ground under start /finish. Its how lap times are recorded.

    What do you think: Billet grille

    I like the functional look of nothing blocking my airflow. I have removed everything but the radiator and fully boxed it in with .0625 aluminum sheet. I saw huge drops in temp. Like those 305-30-18 front tires :-) I almost have no understeer.

    Pully swap

    Any time you change your blower speed you should get the car on a dyno. Some people like the mail order tunes but I am not a big fan of them. The replacement cost of our engines it a bit too high to gamble with. You can drive the car for ever as long as you never press the go pedal far enough...

    HELP!!!-shifter/tranny getting stuck

    First: Where did UM act like he knew everything? I see him asking for more information so he could give a good answer. His questions followed a logical path trying to diagnose the problem. Second: Where did he say anything that wasn't nice? Third: Being obnoxious? I think you are very...

    Tire/Wheel question

    275-35-18 is the same size as the stock 275-40-17. What are you rubbing on? I run 305-30-18s up front and don't rub anything. We need more info. What have you changed on the front suspension?

    03 Cobra vs M3... Who wins?

    Why do people post these "Who would win" junk posts? They mean nothing they prove nothing. They only get a flame war going. You want to know who would win? Go to the track and race. Once that race is over add different drivers and the race will be different.

    UPR K-Member Kit

    What do you want the car to do that it doesn't do now? The UPR K will make the car lighter but a lot weaker. I am not a big UPR fan. If you want to reduce weight and have a good solid car then look at MM or Griggs.
