    Upcoming mods?

    Hey guys, just wanted to get a little feedback on the shopping list. I got a little relocation bonus and I want to get the car where I want it before putting it on the dyno. Exhaust - Bassani BX offroad X, Bassani BX cat-back (looking for as deep a tone as possible?) Chassis - MM full...

    2004 Cobra

    I may be able to help you out a little bit as I'm in the business. First off beware that 1) what the dealer offers you for your trade in is not necessarily what the car is worth (the difference is pretty important) and 2) dealers do not toss away money - they almost always win. Big rebates...

    Quick Question for you Cobra Owners

    Cant agree with this one enough...in your situation, should you be able to afford one, its going to be a stretch. Put it this way, I'm 24 and just recently established the stability, income, and credit to get a decent deal on car financing and afford the car I've wanted since 21 comfortably...

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    The guys at Ramsey said the Predator is leaps and bounds ahead of the old chip technology from Diablo. They pulled the chip and read it...installed October '03 by dealer "721", i'm guessing somewhere in TX where the car came from. I didnt get a chance to check out the fuel ratios (was told the...

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    Just got back from Ramsey's and cant say enough about the guys over there, they were a HUGE help. My past cars have all been n/a carb'd cars and this is a whole new world to me. Big, big difference but pretty amazing. Car definitely has a 2.80 pulley and had an old Diablo pulley chip in the...

    Just saw my first one on the street today but cant run anything until i get my car tuned Tuesday :rolleyes: Driver appeared to be the standard issue "I have far more money than knowledge of cars" 'vette owner. If it makes you feel better I have a feeling the guys on the street in these things...

    FYI...new T-56 MGW SHIFTER (not handle)

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    Just made an appointment for Tueday morning at Ramsey's here in town...going to use a Predator and then put her on the dyno to fine tune. The exhaust is stock...stock size tips, stock midpipe, and it's quiet. Doesnt look like the EEC has been tampered with at all. I knew it had a Steeda CAI...

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    ...also a pic of the new ride the mystery pulley was attached to. Not too shabby for $19K! :hail2:

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    thanks for the help guys...im a few hundred miles in and absolutely love the car. had one more question...the car came with the stock airbox setup in the trunk as well as a random grooved pulley and belt. im attaching a pic of the pulley...its about 3-3/4" in diameter where the belt would sit...

    How hard is it to install hood pins on 04 Cobra and who makes a nice set?

    I know I had a decent stainless set a year or two ago on my '85 that I got from FRPP. They had a locking ring and lanyards and held up pretty well to the conditions (what little conditions we get here in FL). Just make sure whatever set you get is stainless or they'll rust in no time. If...

    Just bought an '03 Cobra, need advice...

    Ive posted several times in the past couple weeks narrowing down my search and finally got to take my black '03 home today!!! 16K miles, polished wheels, pretty much in the wrapper short of some paint work to the front end which allowed me to purchase it well back of book value. Kind of a...

    '03 Cobra VIN Decoder?

    I've posted several times recently trying to narrow down the search for either a '98 or '01 Cobra and in the mean time stumbled on a hell of a deal in the form of a black on black '03 Cobra w/16K miles. I'm a buyer for a large national dealer and one of our branches in Texas bought the car from...

    IRS wheel-hop...

    ...so a couple opinions both ways with the long term solution being a live axle swap. would i be better of spending a couple extra thousand and picking up an '03 mach 1 (again, with the idea a '98 cobra doesnt pop up)? i really have been set on a Cobra but might expand my search if its that...

    IRS wheel-hop...

    Im now about a week or so from buying a Cobra and, after looking a little more in depth, am leaning toward '01's. Drove one...loved it. I've also been having some troubles finding nice, low mile '98's in the market. Only thing I am worried about is the ever dreaded independent suspension...

    '96-'98 or '01 Cobra???

    Thanks again guys. It really isnt a matter of money...its more just not wanting to spend an extra $7K for a car which is basically the same, if not inferior. I do like the look of the '96-'98's a bit more and am leaning that way but had read a couple articles that talked the '01's up quite a...
