    People who critique your car

    One of my best friends is like that. Some people can't help themselves. When he saw my new cobra all he said was "hmm, why is the grill missing? I don't think that looks good"..I simply laughed and said it was stock. Brush it off. As long as you like the look of your car that's all that matters.

    Took the new ride to the track

    Yeah, it was my brothers GoPro. That thing is awesome. The sticker on the window is a VMP tunning sticker. It's off now, the previous owner put it on. And no, I don't want to road course the car. Everyone thinks cobras have great handling because of the IRS. Common myth, I have pretty much full...

    Took the new ride to the track

    Well I took the cobra to the track last Friday to see how she would do. As i suspected, with the tires I was using and the IRS I couldn't get one good launch. The best time I squeezed off was a 7.91 with a 2.1 60ft trapping at 94mph. I literally had to start off at idle and ease into the...

    HiTech Stg. 2 vs. Comp 262's vs. Comp 270's

    Here is my old stang with PI heads and comp 262's. If you get a decent tune where you can turn the idle down to about 700-800 you get a nice little rumble. I liked them..Good for daily driving. Idle video by mustangman4900 - Photobucket

    Should go 4v or stay 2v?

    Being someone who recently went from a 2 valve to a 4 valve I would say go with 4 valve. It's an incredible difference. The torque curve on those motors is insane. Mine puts out 487 rwhp and 484 tq with a ported eaton and the torque is over 400 to the wheels at just 2000 RPM's. I was a die hard...

    Good deal on Stang?

    10k is way too much for a GT IMO...When I was shopping around I found multiple 03 Mach 1's with 40-60k miles for 10-11k. I would go with a Mach 1 or a 01 cobra if you're looking to spend around 10k. That's just me though.

    Thanks haha, and no. I don't have nice shoes. I had to sell my motorcycle in order to afford the upgrade.

    I've been Terminated

    Yea they are 10in replicas. 18x9 in the front and 18x10.5 in the back. I'm in love with the color. Pictures don't do it justice. Right now the back tires are 335 nitto 555 DRs. The tires need replacing. Does anyone know how a 335 street tire looks on a 10.5 inch rim? I heard the nittos run...

    I've been Terminated

    Well I've been looking for a long time and trying to decide if I should fix up my GT or buy a new stang. After months of searching I found a perfect replacement. A 2003 Mustang Cobra with some very tasteful mods. All said and done it has 487rwhp amd 484 rtq with a stock ported blower. Pic of...

    Received hate mail about starting my car..

    When I still lived with my parents in high school I had a really loud exhaust (x pipe with 40s flowmasters). I had to leave for school every morning around 6:30. A X Marine about 4 houses down told me I woke him up every morning. I even tried to be very quite. I asked him if he wanted me to do...

    my new 02 what to do ?

    If you're looking for a 01 cobra hood you might want to check on the V6 hoods. I'm pretty sure some of the V6 hoods are the same as the cobra hoods for that year. You could probably save some cash :shrug:

    my new 02 what to do ?

    2001 Saleen Cobra

    I'm looking at getting rid of the GT and getting another pony. Anyway I came across a single owner 2001 Cobra with only 30k miles. He says that it is all original. What threw me off is that it has a Saleen body kit and light bar (convertible). It has a Cobra interior and a 4v engine. At first I...

    Tire? Sumitomo HTR Z Tire (315/35-17)

    You must have been on a very well prepped track or have lots of suspension mods. My 315 555's (which I know are better hooking) will still chirp if I'm cruising in 2nd and gun it. If i gun it in 1st there is no chance. I also have only around 330 rwhp...

    Tire? Sumitomo HTR Z Tire (315/35-17)

    I've heard sumitomos suck. I was going to get them before I did some research. I ended up getting nitto 555's 315/35/17 and am happy with them. They almost hold the car down in first...
