    strange sound when starting

    I'm not too worried about it right now since it's been going on for a long time, however, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what it is. Whenever I start the car (almost every start, if not all starts) there is a clicking noise or rattle of some sort right when you hear the 'packs go *vroom*...

    Are you glad you got a Cobra?

    Any year, doesnt matter, I am just curious how happy you are that you bought the Cobra you have. Do you wish you would have kept your previous car? Gotten a different car?

    96-98 with magnaflow catback...

    Did it fit right? My passenger side tailpipe (piece that goes over the axle) is COMPLETELY bent wrong. It shoots traight up into the back of the bumper (about 4.5" off). No, its not the wrong side piece. I put the drivers side pipes on perfect.

    Nitto NT555's on 16 inch rim

    All I can find is 205's on a 16. If this is the only possible tire size for a 16 inch, are there any other suggestions for similar tires on a 16 inch rim?

    H-pipe vs. X-pipe

    Pros and Cons for each? I'm talking ones with high flow cats, as thats what I will be getting. My car is basically stock besides exhaust and I dont plan to modify it very heavily. Which is the midpipe for me?

    Question for a friend; 94 GT

    Well, heres the problem: Whenever he is revving the engine up, when it gets to around 4000 rpms it starts to lag very very bad all the way up to 6000 (it takes about 4 seconds to get from 4000-6000). This is when hes not moving, and in neutral. It goes up even slower when its being driven...

    Gear Ratio Question (1997 GT 5spd)

    Ok, I checked the tag on the door jam and under axle it clearly says "BM", but when I look in my service manual, the only thing closest to it clearly reads "8M". Can anyone help me with this issue? Is it a simple typo and I have 2.73 gears or is there really a "BM" axle code? Also, I have...
