    A few pics of the Mach

    Not a photo shoot (pretty obviously). The car has been getting the Cobra IRS treatment for the past two months so its acquired a lot of dust along with the guts of bugs from the car being driven to me from 6 hours away when I bought it in October. Finally got most of the kinks worked out with...

    Expired Oem 28 Spline 99 Cobra Half Shafts

    I have two OEM 28 spline half shafts from a 1999 Cobra for sale. One is in good condition and the other is damaged. I believe the damaged one is repairable but I'm not really knowledgeable in that area - the damage can be seen in the very last picture on this page. Axles will be packaged...

    Want To Trade: Sra For Irs

    I'm looking for someone to trade my SRA with a Cobra IRS (preferrably 03/04). The SRA is stock and would be off a 1999 GT and would come with Bilstein Shocks and H&R SS rear springs with less than 2k miles along with all parts needed from the SRA and the catback exhaust (Flowmasters with 4"...

    Does This Improve Mach 1 Grille Delete Looks?

    I never bought this piece when I installed my Mach 1 grille delete. Does anybody think it makes a difference with the look? Maybe it cleans it up a bit? http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/item/LRS-8299A/2003-04-Mustang-Cobra-And-Mach-1-Front-Grille-Filler-Panel

    I'm Sort Of Disgusted With Myself

    Last week I became so obsessed with the idea of having a 2011+ Mustang that I put mine on craigslist. I put it up for almost $8000 because I knew no one would give that much for it but was willing to entertain offers. The thought of a better refined vehicle that has fresh paint, fresh interior...

    Subframe Connectors Are Awesome

    I know that almost everyone knows that full length weld-in subframe connectors are a must with our cars but I just got mine (Maximum Motorsports) installed today and they made the ride SO much better. I was worried about the description of them making the car feel "stiff" but they really make...

    Exhaust Tips installation

    So I just ordered some 4" exhaust tips that I plan to have installed (welded) when I get my FLSFCs installed. They're 12" long and I realized that after looking underneath my car the exhaust tips that are on there are 12" long and are welded on. Is the shop going to have a lot of trouble cutting...

    Exhaust Tips

    In the next few weeks I plan to get some FLSFCs and figured I'd get some exhaust tips as well to make the rear end of my car look better and get them welded on while they're welding underneath there anyway. I've seen some pics and really like the look of rolled 4" tips. I was wondering if anyone...

    Thinking about coming back to classics

    [Warning: long post, probably boring. Sorry :D ] So when I was 14 years old my dad and I began the restoration of a 1966 mustang I6. Thanks to this forum I learned absolutely everything I needed to know to go through it. Well when I went away to college I decided to (regrettably) sell the ol'...

    Wingless

    Finally got around to going wingless. Had to get another trunk lid so that it wouldn't have 12 holes to plug up but I got it for pretty cheap and the color and quality is perfect. Then filled in the holes with the ol' plastic plug and touch-up paint method. I know some people don't love...

    Notching Bilsteins for Coilovers

    I was wondering, for future reference, what does it take to notch Bilstein shocks and struts in order to fit the Maximum Motorsports coil-overs? I haven't been able to find any info on how to do it and all I know is that its required for the coil overs (per MM's website). Anyone dealt with this...

    Power steering pump question

    I'm putting this in talk because its actually on a 2005 TSX, but the Acura forums aren't much help so I figured I would try here since people tend to respond pretty quickly and this is sort of a general question. Anyway, I replaced the power steering pump on the car but I didn't flush the...

    Autocross Experts: Advice getting started?

    Was wondering what it takes to get involved in autocrossing. I'm definitely more of a fan of the twisty turny driving as opposed to straight line races. I'm not terribly concerned with actually competing against other people (at least initially I guess). Whats it take to get started? From what...

    Shoes!!!

    Sorry for the small cell phone pics, I don't have a camera. Anyway, I am insanely happy about the look and feel of my suspension combo matched with my brand new FR500s. Once the weather gets better (probably not for a while), I'll be sure to clean the hell out of my baby and do a decent photo...

    Distant Future Kenne Bell Plans

    Now that I've acquired a beater (very low mileage 95 toyota camry), I've decided to change my 99 GT from my daily driver to my (driveable) project car. The engine is completely stock and currently has about 123k miles on it and will continue to have miles added to it. I'd like to save up and...
