I'm diggin the new wheels!!! They make the car look F'n mean & I'm sure the car will 60 ft much better now. I'm not a fan of the hood, but it has its purpose to clear the intake, so therefore its not "useless". Once its painted, it will blend in more & will bring the look all together.
As far...
Car looks awesome Chris!!! The shaved rear bumper is a nice touch, & the 99 Cobra hood works well with the 03/04 Front. The painter did a great job.
Not trying to be a downer, but there is 1 thing that bugs me though on all cars with 03/04 Fronts that have no intercooler, the lower part of...
I am too attached to my Mach 1. I love it & hate it... They are many times I want to get rid of it & get something else more comfy, but still fun to drive. I have came close to letting it go for a 2000-2003 BMW M5, 04/05 Audi S4, or 04/05 Cadillac CTS-V, but its too hard to walk away from all...
Not really, but this is pretty funny...
This company stole a pic of my Mach 1, & chopped some sort of ricey fender mod on it LOL!!!!
The new look LOL...:barf:

265/35/18 up front & 295/53/18 rear fit perfect IMO... No stretch & no bulge. What brand tire you go with will also effect the fitment & the look as well. If you go with a nice domestic brand tire like a Goodyear, or BFG, they will be a tad wider than an import tire like Nitto, or Sumitomo.
I guess I'm out of the norm. My car has LT's, o/r h, & magnaflows, & i think it sounds great?

BTW, this was my 1st run ever on slicks, so thats why the launch is so weak, but its the only exhaust vid I have of my car...
IDK about the internal differences, but the 01 Bullitt also came with the retro gauges, & since it's basically a GT, it should be a direct swap with your car...
16" wheels will clear for sure. My buddy runs 16" 99-04 V6 wheels on his 03 Cobra for track wheels & they clear just fine. I run 15X8" summit pro star reps (not too sure on the offset?) on my Mach 1, & all I needed was 1/4" spacers to clear the brakes. Actually, I'm pretty sure an 1/8" spacer...
I'm pretty sure the transmissions are the same, but maybe the gearing could be different, but I doubt it? I know what is definitely different is the flywheel. The GT uses a 6 bolt flywheel, while your Cobra uses an 8 bolt flywheel.
My 60 ft on the 12,75 pass was only a 1.75, but I'm pretty sure I can get it down to a low 1.6 & pull a 12.5 or so. I did pull a 1.68 in my Mach 1 on the same tires, so I know it can easily be done in my coupe.
D@MN thats horrible bro. Sorry to hear this. Your car was always super clean IMO & even though they made tons of Sonic Blue new edge GT's, these cars have sentimental value & you may never find another 1 that was as well taken care of as yours. Unfortunately it looks to be totaled, but hopefully...
