Boom!
I didn't even know that you could do that swap to a fox. The only thing I would've done different to that car was to eliminate the cut line in front of the tire....(Why do ya spose he did that?)
Can someone help me out and tell me what air dam that is???^^^
It may be obvious, but I'm obviously not used to looking at it..
If you're talkin about the black lip I believe that it's factory Cobra. My yellow car had one on the bottom,..tore up as hell because it was so low.I dunno... but this makes me want to molest my calypso car.. (no I'm not going to)
Do you have the answer to my above question?
I'm not surprised really,...Not like a Cobra is sitting in a JY like a 6 cyl car totaled for a crushed fender.
Yeah,...I dont know if it was during the time that SSeater was gone for a while or not, but I contemplated buying both cars while at Carmax. They had a hagged out 01 for 5500, and an equally abused 03 car for 10k at the same time. After driving the 03 though, and hearing the Eaton it was no contest...Funny how I can spot a termi a mile away, but that thing looked totally alien to me.. goes to show how overlooked that car was, huh?

But after owning that car for a couple of months, and despite the fact that it was fast,...it was just too much of a piece of white bread for me. I put a clutch and flywheel in it, pulled the engine, resealed all of the damn oil leaks, and performed the 7/8 cooling mod. I did something to the rear end (I forget) and painted the front and rear bumpers. I sold it for 14,500 and bought the Monster the next month.
I was just looking back at my old threads for corroboration of the event..I can appreciate that decision, but if I got my hands on a termi, with all of the power potential that engine has.... I'd have to treat it like the dirty nasty girl it is, and do bad, bad, bad things with it. I know a fella putting 50 psi to one.. un-freaking-BELIEVABLE!
Yes..Yes you where** and when you look back at my old stuff,......I WAS a much nicer guy..
Come on....cut the bumper already
Only thing I wish I would've done different is drilled 3 small holes about an inch up from the corner of the bumper and cut slits to them to relieve the stress of the molded bumper corner bulge. I think it would've helped with epoxying the bumper on. It would've allowed the curved edge to straighten out behind the cobra bumper- giving more contact area to adhere to.
I was just looking back at my old threads for corroboration of the event..
Seems the non-termi Cobra was a 98 car,...and the 03 car I bought actually cost me 11,700.00 after taxes and fees. (I knew that I didn't make that much money when I sold it),...Cause I remember pssing off the wife when I took the profit's from that 500 hp yellow car, and bought the current 88 hp yellow car.. She wasn't pssed that I spent the money on a ugly fairmont,....she didn't like that I was digging myself in for another long multi year, and multi thousand dollar build as a result.
In hindsight (pay attention here Nick @95BlueStallion),....Cause this is how these things go....
I'll bet that there could've been TWO of those 11,700.00 termi's sitting in the garage right now, as opposed to one orange reptile and I'd OWN them,..
