I want the 03 cobra rims on my black 90GT but dont know what 5 lug to go with. looking for a conversion that I can add the bullet style red calipers for the front and rear=btw will those bullet calipers clear the 03 cobra rims? Should I go with the ford cobra conversion or is it a waste of money. Please help!!! This is my next mod. BTW=chrome or machined rims on a black gt?

You'd essentially be doing the same thing if you picked up some SN95 spindles and used the Bullet calipers, but probably for much cheaper than buying the FRPP kit. You'll still need misc. parts to finish the job that would be included in the kit, but you can piece it all together fairly easily. And yes, they will clear the 17" wheels.

best info i've seen yet. i wish i had this when i did my conversion! you can find used parts for this at

http://www.car-parts.com/

this way you dont have to scavenge through the local pull-a-part and find nothing you need for months. i'd say read the brakes website first to find out what you want to do then search for specific components.

Oh you mean like mine..... MUAHAHAHA

My swap was as follows:
M2300K brake kit (w/SN95 front spindles)
Custom brackets to run factory length axles
Yukon 28 spline hardened axles (factory length obv)
04 chrome factory wheels 17x9

Im still deciding what to do for rubber but it looks badass so far!!
