    Ready to purchase some Goodyear GS-D3's... best price?

    I got my t1's from discounttiredirect. If I knew the GSD3's were that much I would have gone with those. I think I spent 750 w/shipping. Maybe a mention of the websites will get you a discount. I know mustang tuning gave me a discount on my wheels for being a corral member. Good luck, let us...

    98 cobra HID conversion

    you also have to get different headlight housings. try www.mrbodykit.com ,they have some different ones, kinda pricey, but i'd do it if I had the extra cash. and there have been some discussions in the past on this, I'd do a search. good luck, post pics if you do it. currently my driving lights...

    245/45/17 on a 9inch rim?

    The t1's are still a good choice, unles you can cough up some GSD3's. I have had no problems on wet pavement, with mine. they spin just as easy on dry cold pavement as they do wet. the yoko's were my other choice on a budget.

    245/45/17 on a 9inch rim?

    those will look pretty narrow on a 9" rim, and you won't have any rim protection. my t1's work pretty good in light snow. a 265 is what is recommended atleast on a 18x9" wheel.

    any thoughts on the ghost flames? a local vinyl shop that does good work, and clearcoats over it, will do it for 500-550. I told them I wanted to have a cobra emblem on the hood where the hump is blended into the flames. sound good? anybody have any pics of some cool ghost flames?

    what do you think?

    that vehicle should have come with atleast a 30 day warranty or a certain mileage. if after two days, I would take it back, demand it to be fixed, or like you said get his old car back, if it is still there. If that doesn't work, better business bureau, and threaten them with an attorney. my 97...

    new pics

    thanks, I have always thought if I owned a car lot, I would put aftermarket wheels on everything. makes the vehicle look alot better. I wish I had some pics of when I bought it stock. It has gone through some major changes. :nice:

    new pics

    just put a new page on my cardomain webpage, check it out and let me know what you think. there is a picture of a neon project I made, the pic sucks, but looks pretty cool. also the difference between the crappy fogs vs. driving lights from walmart, I'd say they were worth 20 bucks, and they are...

    Stats/numbers question

    mine will atleast keep up with a new gto which has more power, a better tranny, and less weight. unless it's blown, or has nos, I wouldn't worry too much, unless you just roast through first, than maybe a little catch up.

    Thinking of getting a Cobra...what to look for

    every 5 speed I have owned didn't like going into reverse. nothing major though. just get it checked over by a mechanic you trust. a friend with mustang knowledge, and tools is a definate plus.

    should i sell/trade in the 98?

    do the gears and driveshaft, that will make you smile. Won't be an 03, but definately a very noticeable mod. I would be surprised if you get 15 for it. list is closer to 11 or 12 isn't it. and most people might worry about the mods, unless they are looking for a head start. I'd keep it. I have...

    question for guys with gear swapping exp!!!

    sounds about right. the only tool he didn't have was a press, to get the ring gear off and on. it was his first time. they did whine a little, or I guess do. I'm betting on the crush collar. I guess I could pull the cover, and do an inspection, if nothing else change the fluid. thanks all!!

    anyone famaliar with saleen products??

    I have a front sway bar for a 96-98 cobra. I was told that it was for the 351 version that they made. I looked at their website, and it looks like they only have one front swaybar. I need to order different bushings for it, because it is thicker than stock. I tried emailing saleen, no response...

    lowering

    The 1 inch or more, is a deceant decision to make. the prokit should drop it 1.5" sportline 2"+ in some cases. H&R anywhere from an inch to 1.75 front, 1.6 rear. not too sure about their other springs. to stay around an inch, maybe steeda.

    Slick setup?

    try some of the new mickey thompson drag radials. I have never driven on them, but they feel like an eraser in density, probably wouldn't last too long on the streets though. I'm not sure what or if they make a perfect size for 17x8's, but they do for 17x9's. might want to read up on axle...

    What tires?

    so my tires don't do as well as I remembered from last year. had maybe an inch of snow a couple of nights ago, driveable, fun not really, the lighest hit on the pedal, and sideways. but even on dry cold pavement, things get interesting, in first which is useless during a takeoff, and then...
