    Searching for the infamous F*in' Fast Shifter Knob...

    Should have came here first! :rlaugh: That's just an insert on the stock knob. You can purchase the insert from MGW Ltd. They aren't on the website though, you have to call and ask for them specifically. They also sell an Eject button, but it's made in your choice of either billet or chrome...

    2003 Mach 1 engine in a 1999 cobra?

    The 2003 Mach 1 motor should be for the most part exactly the same as your 99 motor. Find out if the Mach 1 motor came from an A/T or M/T equipped Mach because it DOES make a difference. The M/T equipped Mach motor has a better crank in it I believe. Regardless of that, it should be a direct...

    03 cobra.. worth it?

    16.5K for a salvage titled Terminator? I'd be a little leary personally. They're not much more than that for one with a good title! U.M.

    Info needed to help eliminate '99 Cobra IRS hop!!!

    Yup! My Cobra would wheel hop like crazy when the weather got below 40 because the tires just couldn't hook up. U.M.

    4.30's: Noisy Gears?

    As stated above... the ratio of a gear set shouldn't make any difference on the whine. 99 times out of 100 the reason gears whine is because they weren't installed correctly. U.M.

    Info needed to help eliminate '99 Cobra IRS hop!!!

    Well.... I don't think there's a 100% cure for wheel hop in cold weather except replacing the IRS with a SRA, but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a Cobra in the first place. First thing you can try is better rubber. If you can increase your traction you can reduce the hop. Problem...

    motive pro 5.0 3.90 gear question

    For a stock '99 Cobra you'll want the 4.10's. The Motive 3.90's are a good gear and if set up correctly are as good as any, but you'll kick yourself for not going lower... U.M.

    Cobra vs GT

    Correct, hence my initial mistake from the very beginning! I only skimmed the post initially and thought he was referring to his fathers new Cobra. My bad for not reading the whole post from the get go. U.M.

    Cobra vs GT

    When he said it ran mid-12's on motor I naturally thought he was referring to the 03/04 and not that ugly, heavy, over priced pig GT500. :) U.M.

    What year is this seat?

    Yeah those seats in the '01 pictured above have smaller thigh bolsters and the Alcantara insert is curved at the front where your thighs ride. The 03/04 Alcantara is cut straight across at the front and the thigh bolsters are bigger. U.M.

    what would you get 04 Cobra or C6 Corvette?

    :lol: Guilty. U.M.

    What year is this seat?

    The Alcantara in the 03/04 seats holds up remarkably well and is easy to clean too. Nevet had an issue with mine. Might be a better quality than what's in your Audi, although that doesn't seem right for some reason... U.M.

    03 IRS: Speed sensitive 'clunking'

    Time to yank the cover, perform a visual for obvious damage, and then if necessary start measuring the tolerances to see if it was assembled correctly. Sounds like something is definitely out of whack. U.M.

    what would you get 04 Cobra or C6 Corvette?

    390HP vs 425HP. Vette handles better stock. Cobra has better/cheaper mod potential. Personally I chose a C6ZO6. :D U.M.

    03 IRS: Speed sensitive 'clunking'

    Well I can tell you that stock 03/04 Cobra's came straight from the factory with plenty of drive line slack which resulted in clunking. It's the nature of the beast so to say. The IRS is made of of more components than a SRA so there's naturally more slack to begin with. If you're driving along...

    Lightning MAF same as 03/04 Cobra MAF?

    Well the 03/04 Cobra MAF is also a 90mm unit. U.M.

    What year is this seat?

    Yeah the color is SB, but as RB88 pointed out the console ain't right. U.M.

    OK if I supercharge my 99 Cobra

    I don't want to sound like a jerk, but this exact question has been asked at least a dozen times in these forums. A simple search will bring up all sorts of threads on the subject. The bottom like is unless you have a donor 03/04 Cobra you can scavenge all the necessary parts from it's just not...
