    DONT YOU HATE THE FOBRAS!

    It mostly just pisses me off when other people don't beleive mine is a real Cobra because soo many other punks in the area here [major college campus town] have rebadged V6 parading around as SVT's I like Kit Cobras because they have everything original Cobras were. The power, the suspension...

    Qn on 99 cobra transmission

    Yes its normal. T45's have no syncromesh gears on reverse. You'll need to synch it with another gear first. I usually engage 1st for a half second, just enough to inch forward, then toss it in reverse and I'm good to go.

    EBAY EIBACH springs, need help

    Eibach most definetly makes their own springs. THey should be either red or black powdercoated with the name Eibach somewhere on the spring along with the eibach P/N. I think you got screwed bro :(

    gunmetal rims

    Its hard to tell without pics, but just picturing it in my mind, it would look pretty cool I think.

    another tranny thread

    If you don't want to shell out the cash for a T56 [and I don't blame you one bit], I would say your cheapest option would be to, obviously, rebuild the original T45. If its too far gone to be saved, and you'll need to buy a new gearbox, I'd just go right on and get a TKO500 or 600, if you have...

    Benefits of getting an 03/04 Cobra

    Yep the oil-change thing is just dependant on the dealership. I wouldnt let them change my oil anyways, as they all use cheap-as-garbage bulk oil, not the good synth stuff. Also, aside from the obviously bawls-to-the-wall power of the terminators, you also get a FANTASTIC set of seats! Compared...

    Which Short Shifter to Get?

    Ditto. I prefer my Tri-Ax. ANYTHING is better than the stock POS! :thumbsup:

    What Gas Mileage do you get?

    I have been getting about 280+ per tank. I don't run her dry, but I'll get that fuel guage pret-ty far down to the left :) I average about 280 to 300 miles between fill-ups. 3.27s and mostly highway cruising at 60 or 65 mph.

    Exhaust/Catback w/ Classic Muscle Car Sound

    AFAIK, you aren't going to need MIL eliminators on any midpipe with catalytic converters.

    Catted X-pipes

    They will come with that particular brand's own Hi-flow cat. Chances are though, that even the high-flow catted pipes *wont* pass inspection if its much more than a visual one. Its a PITA, but I would swap out the stock H for inspection, then toss the catless one back on for the rest of the year.

    Passenger side H-pipe to manifold gasket leak

    Bro I had the exact same problem with my MAC O/R H pipe, and I could never get it to seal right. Three gaskets and two weeks later I said F*&^ that piece of junk, and bought a shiny, new stainless Bassani O/R X. It went on PERFECT first try, zero leaks, EXCELLENT quality! Just sell that POS MAC...

    Drive it hard!!!

    Nah man you can downshift coming to lights, I do this often, but I don't shift below third and I allways either double clutch it, or let the clutch out real slowly. Just downshift from 5th to fourth, then *maybe* third, then toss her in neutral and coast it on it. Theres no need to drop into...

    For those with O/R pipes....

    Its most likely an exhaust leak bro. Even if it 'looks' tight, you could still have seapage somewhere. At those speeds, no way should yuo be able to smell the exhaust, unless you have a leak at your manifold to midpipe junction on on, or both, sides of your exhaust. Not only is it reeking of...

    Vtec Cobra

    I was gonna say, that's gotta be tongue-in-cheek!

    T-45 Problems PLEASE HELP!!

    Perhaps something with the shift fork is misaligned or bent? Whatever it is, it sounds like you'll prolly need to open the tranny up to fix it.

    How bad is it to bump the rev limiter?

    Yeah, the first time I bounced my vert I scared teh crap out of myself. I allways make sure to avoid it like the plague, but like you said, sometimes it happens.

    pic's of my new allen supercharger

    I was just thinking that too, a 700 buck pulley? lol who knows. For that much I'd rather go a bit further and toss a custom KB setup on it.

    Who's Got What Exhaust Setup

    max supercharger PSI?

    About 6-8 lbs. IF you get a good tune! Non forged bottom ends are very fragile and will go out the door pronto if you dont have an excellent tune.
