    98 Cobra, Miss in Cylinder #1

    I've got a miss in the #1 cylinder. I first pulled the plug and it looked very clean with a very slight brown hue, but the electrode was so clean it looked like it had just been pulled out of the box. The plug looked a little wet after the car had been ran so i figured the injector may be stuck...

    getting ready to do rear suspension

    definitely plan to be going faster than a 1.6, i was researching today and from what i saw the shocks have to be relocated when doing the mini tub so i guess i will go ahead and do the coil overs with that. i'm not sure about the nitrous yet so i would say that the current goal is a low ten...

    getting ready to do rear suspension

    I'm getting ready to do the rear suspension in my hatch, and i just wanted some opinions. i want to keep it as close to stock suspension if i can (i'm not sure if coil overs change that) the car will be getting a 460 bb and eventually a decent shot of spray. I was looking at the extreme...

    URGENT.. NEED HELP!!

    i think it will be a big help if we can get one extension that is a couple feet long rather then trying to piece them together like we have been. also if we can loosen the mounts so that we can get straight on without having the use a swivel might help with the issue we were having with the...
