We need to get pics of all the awesome cars on this section and send them in. Just to name a few, Mike (Oink), JR, Paul and even Aaron's car can be featured. I know I'm forgetting at least 2 but can't remember. Some cars on there need to be second in line when it comes to several cars on this web site.

I know I need to put this stuff in my sig but I haven't got to that point yet. Being I have way to much parts & pieces in this car I will give you only a berief run down on the mods.

-Paxton VR-4 Supercharger w/ Spearco intercooler (6psi - for now!)
-Zex Nitrous Kit (modified to be used with a spray bar on the intercooler)
-Tweecer R/T w/ onboard wb o2 sensor setup ( I do all my own tuning)
-Complete MSD ignition setup
-Vortech Race Bypass
-Aluminum flywheel & driveshaft
-Spec Stage 3 clutch
-70mm TB, LMAF, 42lb injectors, 4in. inlet w/K&N
-Full Mac exhaust w/ ABC center exit tailpipe setup
-3:73
-Side panels & Rear bumper with Center exhaust exit (ABC exclusive -Sweet looking setup and not many have it, I will post pics of the rear)
- Complete Maximum Motorsports Grip in a Box suspension kit w/ 5-way adj. Tokico shocks and Struts. (unbelievable handling - handles about as well as my fathers Z06)
-Steeda short throw
-rear seat delete
-Racing seats
-Cobra Front bumper (to answer the questions I got it from mrbodykit.com through a business trade. Looking at it, it looks like an ABC bumper but not 100% sure unless mrbodykit is a distributor for ABC.)
-The list goes on but that is the important stuff, you get the idea.

Yes the front bumper is very low and makes it hard to drive. You must be carefull but it is well worth it and I have gotten pretty good at it.

Yes I was at the K104 car show in 04, quite abit more done to it since then though.

The color is a House of Color hue, I forget the name or code but in the color chip book I had it was the first one on the first page. The yellow and orange but have a slight pearl to it and looks good in low light. Check it out if you have access to one of their catalogs.

The motor is basically stock with just the SC and bolt ons. It dyno at 375hp & 396 torqueto the wheels which figures to about 432hp & 455 torque at the flywheel. Not to bad for a stock 95 cobra motor with only 6lbs of boost. I know your thinking with all the money in the car why is the motor stock. Well when I started this project I decided to upgrade the suspension and the rest of the car first then the motor (mostly dictated by finances). However this won't stay long as over the winter I will be doing a H/C/I swap. I haven't decided yet on the actual parts but I am thinking about the 185 AFRs. We will see when I get there. Oh yeah, how could I forget, MORE BOOST TOO!

Here is a pic of the rear!

Very nice! I think you pieced together the body kit very well. There have only been a select few cars that I have found that were able to match the rest of the car to the cobra front and I think you pulled it off nicely. I personally think the center exhaust is VERY cool... kind of "viper-ish."

Congrats again and good luck on the engine buildup!

94gts - I live in Speculator, NY, it is about 3 hours north of there. Thats probably why you don't see me driving the streets down there. It actually was my first time there. I wasn't able to make it this year, but then again I don't know if they had the show this year or not.

yeah I go several times a year. Not always with my car but I have been there probably 4 times with the car. We go on Weds. night test and tune. I don't think that you want to hear me times because I have never had a good pass. One time my tranny crapped out and couldn't hit second at all. Other times have been bad traction nights, you get the idea, alway something. The last time I went this year I ran 13.4 at 111. I had to short shift every gear because I was getting detonation near top rpm. I should have just let up but I still want to get the run in (dumb I know ). I think it should be high 12's but not to sure. Also I only run on street tires. Everyone say get slicks then run but I built the car for the twistys so I don't get to upset if I don't run good at the strip.

Do you ever go? If so what day?

how do those side skirts mount on, clark? they they just screw in through both wheel wells, or do they screw into the door sills like the factory ones?

Kudos on a job well done with your car. It's clean and unique. It looks like you've spent time thinking about how you want it to look and I'm very impressed with how it turned out. Good job on originality and the balls with trying something different.
