    Progress Thread 96 Mystic Cobra Build Thread

    My wallet has gotten a bit lighter these past few months as I have scored some difficult items to find, I'll just let the pictures speak for themselves: Also I picked up some GMC Envoy foglights to swap those vs the stock Cobra foglights and I'll have some sweet HID's within 2-3 weeks...

    Nightmare's Progress Thread!

    Kornnut swapped his K member a few years back and had a good thread on it. Might want to take a look at his thread and if he comes in here, he can let you know of some good tips. Glad to see more veteran members making a comeback to Stangnet.

    Drivetrain Speedo Gear

    Yep if you plan to switch gears it's a great upgrade over the trans gears. I cannot comment on how to install as I actually went the route you were wanting (I just have 3.55's currently with the IRS swap) but the speedcal is the way to go. I want to say it can also help with transmission changes...

    Drivetrain Speedo Gear

    They are out there but with 4.10's the general consensus is that the gears will wear out pretty quick and not be worth while unlike a speed cal unit to correct the new gears. Dallas Mustang has a good speed cal unit.

    Waxing With Matte Stripes

    Not a bad choice. It's tough to find a good tape that works like it should but will not leave sticky residue on the car. A few detailing companies have their own tapes and it may be worth while to try them out along with the blue tape and see which one you prefer.

    Thanks man glad to see you still in these parts. :) Now I just need some motor work like you have going on Thanks! Gotta figure out something to do with the seats and I'm undecided about that. It's not a project I'm looking to do soon though I want to change things up under the hood next.

    Waxing With Matte Stripes

    Good tape is your best friend and only friend. Tape is so much easier than removing polish/wax from the edges of stripes its not even funny.

    Should I Sell My Mach 1000 Audio System Or Keep For Sale Of Car?

    1. It's a 10 year old setup 2. Weighs a ton and takes up a ton of space that is now wasted in the trunk (which is why you are taking it out, correct?) 3) You can build a system 3x what this is for less money Just because something is 'rare' doesn't make it expensive. I get that shipping is...

    Best tire shine?

    Adam's SVRT works awesome as an all around product. It works fantastic on our plastic trim and I have used it plenty under the hood and even on the gas tank cover. The only downside is if you want shine the SVRT won't do it with just 1 application so you will need a 2nd coat. To me the shine of...

    '03 Cobra IRS Swap in SN95 Project

    Looks awesome as usual. I'm sure you plan to polish the pipes at some point. I had issues with the rear tires slightly cutting into the fender so I put iso's on the bottom of the rear and it made a great change in ride as well as just enough height to not cut the tires. I gotta fix the exhaust...

    Progress Thread 96 Mystic Cobra Build Thread

    Got the interior more finished today. Added the svt piece to hide the 3 button holes as I won't be using any of those. I put my foglight switch where the coin holder is on the 03-04 center consoles and I replaced the burned out light inside the unit too. I will need to figure something out for...

    Progress Thread 96 Mystic Cobra Build Thread

    Well I can answer some questions for ya on the mach removal. I went ahead and just ran all new speaker wiring from the amps vs reusing the stock wiring in the car. I ran the RCA's from the cd player and then from the 4 channel they go to either the rear speaker or front crossover respectively...

    Progress Thread 96 Mystic Cobra Build Thread

    Car stalled..about wrecked

    I've had it happen to me a time or two ad you're right it's a scary moment. Last time it happened to me I cleaned the battery terminals really well and the connections is what I think was causing it. I haven't had an issue since. Good luck man and stay safe out there!
