    First Manual Car an 04 Cobra?!

    No, I didn't tell them I didn't know how to drive stick. I was nervous as hell though. I stalled when I started the car up since I forgot to put it in neutral before I turned the key. :rlaugh: I stalled a few times. Mainly on an incline. I missed two green lights because I couldn't get it...

    Just got walked by an SVT

    Haha, sounds almsot exactly like what I did to a fellow 94-98 Cobra owner over the weekend. I came across him and we paced each other for awhile. At one point I just stayed behind him as he tried to speed off. When the road finally opened up, I downshifted and left him like he hit the brakes...

    First Manual Car an 04 Cobra?!

    Guess what, I picked up my 03 brand new and only had about 10 minutes of experience driving stick. Just be prepared to stall and feel embarrassed.....like I was. :D But you will get the hang of it soon enough. BTW, where at in NJ are you?

    Thinking about getting a '03 Cobra

    Yeah, but that motor is expensive. tjm73- If warranty is a concern to you, then just go with a catback and CAI. Those mods will put you over the 400 rwhp mark. See my sig.....just Magnaflow CB and Steeda CAI, that's it. If warranty isn't a concern , then do the above and get a...

    Brakes??

    I have the EBC Greenstuff pads and hate them. Did not notice a better stop over stock. And the brake dust is out of control. Worst I've ever seen. I'm going back to Hwak pads. Also, a friend of mine had them as well and took them off his Mach 1 within a week.

    Pullie+Warrenty

    Belt should be around $40 at most. RR pulley around $130. And then $$ for the idler pulley(s). The set is expensive, I know. But no slip. I would try to borrow a puller from some before buying one. But yes, it does add up. :crazy:

    Got the blower apart...

    Apten used to port the blowers. But apparently they had some sort of falling out......some story that I don't know the details about. I think they may actually still port them. Actually, Stiegemeier was the one who ported the blowers. Apten was the middle man. Check out this link for...

    03 cobra boost gauge problem?

    It's normal. Cobra's are not in boost until you go WOT. I could be driving at 6,000 rpm's and still not be in boost. See, this is on the highway.....not in boost..............

    Whats a good set of rotors and pads to get????

    It would look great. But slotted rotors on a street driven car is not good. They are never at the correct operating temp. to perform 100%. Take it for what it's worth. But I spoke with someone at Brembo about this. I think he would know.

    Whats a good set of rotors and pads to get????

    Btw, Brembo ONLY sells Slotted OR Cross Drileld Rotors. They DO NOT make Slotted/Cross Drilled Rotors. So if you see a site saying they are selling real Brembo Slotted/Cross Drilled Rotors, I wouldn't buy them. :nice:

    Whats a good set of rotors and pads to get????

    Street car - Cross drilled rotors with a good set of pads (Hawk). Or just plain rotors with a good set of pads. Track Car (Auto Cross) - Slotted Rotors and a good set of pads. NOTES:: Slotted AND Cross Drilled (together) rotors are not a good idea. Slotted are not good...

    GT to Mach 1?

    True. I'm still going with a drivers race. It is very close. I'd say a modded GT.

    I just took off my catback, and started the car with only an o/r xpipe on......

    I was gonna say....tonto77 talked about electronic cutouts a few weeks ago and had a link. But two people already posted the same link. Have you considered just putting some turn downs on the car?

    GT to Mach 1?

    We already know this. A Mach 1 can beat an LS1 and an LS1 can beat a Mach 1. I already posted this. It is a drivers race. And I will agree with you on the Trap Speed thing. Trap speed gives a good indication of the car's potential.
