Do you guys know what gears should be stock for a 2001 Cobra coupe? Everyone says to run 4.10's, but that seems pretty steep. I had 2.73 in my first GT and went to 3.55 and loved it.

Thanks,
Dave

that was for a GT though with a lower redline. you really need 4.10 to stay in the power band.



i have some money coming soon (well when i take out a loan to pay for *****in my car up, rocker panel, re paint door and quarter panel, front bumper)... i was wondering what brand shocks and struts i should get. which are cheapest for the money? what are some other basic suspension stuff i can do for cheap because most of my money is gonna go to gears, magnaflows or flowmasters, tints and lowering springs.
