    Transmission Fluid??

    I read up on Stangnet and found a few threads on transmission fluid. But I still have a burning question. My 2001 SVT Owners manuel says Mobile 1 Syn ATF, but going to the store they all say for Automatic transmission. Is that what the 2001 Cobra Tremec uses? Automatic transmission fluid and...

    Cosworth

    I know this is random and I couldn't post in the European forum for some reason. But why doesn't Ford make Cosworth here in America? :shrug: We just have the Focus to compete with the Rally car market? Wouldn't an all-wheel-drive Escort Cosworth be good competition for the STI and Evo...

    Clunky Clunk Sounds from front suspension.

    Hey all. I've had these Koni Yellows adjustable shocks and MM Caster Cam adjutsers installed on my car for a good 25,000miles now. Going over rough surfices I hear clunking sounds from the front of the car. The weird thing is it seems to be quite on first startup but after awhile of...

    is motorcycles immune to exhaust noise tickets?

    Why is it that the local police or CHP harasses me constantly with my car exhaust noise, yet these Harleys or choppers that deliberately exaggerate the noise go by unnoticed? Sundays is a big Bike day out here in SoCal and I see groups of bikes go past police all the time with no reaction. :shrug:

    Valantine 1 did not detect a speed display?

    Hey all, Just wondering if there are some speed displays (not sure what the official name is) that are operating on a band not known to most radar detectors? :shrug: Those things cops put on a road to display your speed on a large display normally operating on Kband. Just drove by one...

    Lombard support broke

    I don't know if many of you care, but have you had any problems with your lombard (sp?) support system. :shrug: I had it set since day one and never really played with it until a few days ago. My sister got a 2004 BMW 330ci and I was joking with her on how my Cobra has the same creature...

    I was at the LA Auto show tonight and saw the wierdest thing for the first time. Panoz Esperante? I spoke to the gentlemen that said, yep "I bought the rest of the '01 engines and some '03's" to place in their custome cars? :eek: Guess he was one of the Engineers or something, kept saying...

    Chin spoiler for '01 Cobra?

    Hello all, I was wondering what options there are out there for a chin spoiler for my '01 Cobra. I want to take the bananna look out of the front. There doesn't seem to be anything other then the Cobra R and that looks way too much and will scrape. I would go for the Mach 1 but they seem...
