    I had a friend put my 4:10 gears in, and Iwas wondering how much play you should have when say your car is on jacks, in neutral and you turn the driveshaft. how far should it turn before the wheels turn. I have about 1/2" of play inbetween turning the driveshaft right or left. I also can pull...

    Will a 275/35/18 fit in the front on 96 Cobra?

    do you plan on dropping it? I have the saleen knockoffs with 265 35 18's, and is a perfect fit. they have only rubbed a couple of times, but never while cornering or anything. When I dropped it with the h&r's the factory tires rubbed, surprisingly with a little trimming (with the stock wheels...

    fog light upgrade!!!!

    I was looking to get the ultra clear foglights, that fit our 96-98 cars. I am very glad I didn't spend the money they want for them. not that they aren't good, I have never seen them in person.

    Question on Flowmasters for '99 Cobra

    I could be wrong, but from what I have seen, they only offer delta 40's (2 chamber) or force 2 which is a 3 chamber. They might have the super forties in a catback, but not to sure about that. I have never seen originals in a catback kit. The piping definately looks better than stock with a...

    Question on Flowmasters for '99 Cobra

    If you search on the net, you can probably find originals (40's) for 60 bucks or so. I bet if you try to buy them locally their going to have delta 40's, for 90 bucks. But you cant get the originals in a catback form anyways. I would get the originals, if I could do it over again, but mine are...

    Help me decide!!!!

    that is one of those hum 3:90's? I like my 4:10's, but you have the 4:30's, so you understand the highway rpms. Why not stick with the 4:30's? I go 4:56, if I had a 6 speed. hopefully someone with some boost will answer. not too much on the boards these days though. good luck

    clutch squeak???'s

    About three weeks ago, I noticed that when I push the clutch in, I hear a squeak, nothing too bad. I asked a friend of mine about it, and he said the throwout bearing. I was in the process of helping him install a clutch in a newer z28, so I know where it is. My cobra has almost 112000 miles on...

    what to do with cd player space????

    yeah I can get a pocket, at best buy for 18.50, like anything would stay put in there, I guess it might.

    what to do with cd player space????

    So I have an aftermarket cd player now, and I don't need the factory one anymore. What kind of things have you guys done with the space. I don't really have a need for gauges yet, and probably wouldn't put them there anyways. I'm thinking of maybe mounting a blue neon tube where the old cd...
