    Cobra Replacement Shocks/Struts

    Just want to add that the front struts are modified MacPhersons.

    96 Cobra, White smoke after heat up

    There's nothing particularly unique about the smoke, it billows out at a fairly constant rate and has been doing so for a while, making it less and less likely to simply be standing water in my exhaust. There's been a fairly constant breeze blowing down here in Florida, so I have no idea if or...

    96 Cobra, White smoke after heat up

    Just finished the compression test. All cylinders built up quickly and held, so doesn't seem to be a head gasket. Also discovered something I didn't know was happening, which is water coming from my exhaust. The white smoke seems to be gas, though. Maybe my car is running rich and the water is...

    96 Cobra, White smoke after heat up

    I actually have no idea what burning coolant smells like, unless it just smells sweet like when you've got a leak. I'll check my coolant tomorrow and see if there's oil in it and do a compression test when I get the chance. Here's hoping it's just a head gasket. :p Any suggestions on brand? I...

    96 Cobra, White smoke after heat up

    Been a few years, Stangnet! :D Recently I've had a lot of white smoke spewing from my exhaust after the engine warms up. It doesn't have a distinct smell (doesn't smell sweet, doesn't smell like gas, rubber, or plastic). The best I can describe it is just a generic burning smell. As for...

    Is my clutch going out?

    I had this same problem (with the flat spots) and it's not a misfire, clutch problem, or fuel filter. Vacuum leak, maybe?

    2nd, 4th, and R Gone

    Oh, ha, forgot to let you all know it was just the shift stop. I put a little medium thread lock on it this time.

    2nd, 4th, and R Gone

    Guess I'm getting a motorcycle. I'll let you guys know how the tranny check goes.

    Tranny trouble...it broke

    I'm replacing my fubar'd T-45 with a TKO-500. Good transmission and it's cheaper and much lighter than a T-56.

    Whats the Fastest Car in your Town?

    I live in a fairly small town, but our lineup is pretty damn nice. I don't know much about the car scene here, so I don't know who's got a fast modded car. But here are a few stock beasts from good ole Lakeland: - Lambo Diablo VT (This guy had an incredible Supra) - At least 2 Ford GTs - SLR...

    2nd, 4th, and R Gone

    Well, the shifter base is pretty horizontal, and the stop bolts aren't secured by much (no nylon ring or anything) so it's possible for them to rattle in any direction. I'll check them in the morning. If that's not it, then f*** this car for the next few years. I'll go buy something else to use...

    2nd, 4th, and R Gone

    The other day, my car started having trouble going into 2nd. Then tonight, I was completely unable to get the car into 2nd. Then 4th started doing the same thing. So I limped home and tried reverse. No dice. I'm using an MGW. So my question is... shift stop? Someone please say yes.

    4.6L (pre-3v) Reverse Engineering Thread

    I thought this would be a fun -- and amazing -- project. In this thread, we will list as many componants of the 4.6L 2v and 4v engine, what they do, and how they affect the performance of the engine.

    What to do next??

    My friend's got a Mac O/R H on his 98 GT (I believe he has Flows) and it sounds awesome. They're not too expensive, either. My setup sounds awesome, too, I just don't know what it would sound like on a 2v. Another vote for 4.10s. Bigger MAF or TB, and why not, a good Seafoam treatment. Hell...

    Wheel Spacers

    I was just curious. I didn't know if people spaced the front tires or not. But the look you have is exactly what I'm going for.

    MGW shifter

    I've driven a 98 GT with a Tri-ax and my MGW has a much more solid feel to it. In a couple weeks, the MGW loosens up, and it's a good feeling the first time you hit that 3-4 shift in under a half second. :nice: When I first installed mine, I kept missing third because I was trying to shift just...

    Wheel Spacers

    Are all four wheels spaced?

    Wheel Spacers

    I'm considering throwing a set of spacers on my car to widen my stance. Simply for looks at the moment (looking at 315s for the after-college future), but I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of spacers on all four wheels, preferrably with deep dish wheels. I'm just curious how that would...
