I washed the car and put on my autocross wheels/tires to see how they fit and look and snapped a few pics. For the track I'll be running these 17X9 Cobra Anniversary wheels wrapped in 275 series Kuhmo V710 DOT race tires. I also grabbed a new engine bay shot. I haven't posted any since I first got the car. I spent hours cleaning it and I also installed my morpheous power pipe and 65mm TB. Here's the pics: Here's what it looked like when I got it... YUCK!
Looks sweet, are you going to lower it? I think with those wheels the car really needs to be slammed. Ross
What is your plan for your suspension setup? Man it would be sick to do the whole nine yards with coilovers, panhard pard, torque arm etc. Looks great Paul.
Adam- Originally I was going to run F stock but when I realized the car had issues with the cats I said heck with it and decided to build the car how I want and then run the clas that it falls in. I was going to run ESP, but I may just throw all of my parts on and run CP. The car won't be competative in CP, but I didn't buy the car to only be an autocross car. I want it to be a fun street car too so I'm going to build it like I want it and then see what class I fall into. The TB has already put me out of ESP, but I can always swap that in no time. Ross- Will it be lowered? Yes. How I go about it is what is up in the air. I only want to run coil-overs, but they automatically put me into C prepared. With the way my driveway and garage are I can't go low at all and most stock style lowering springs drop the car too much and it becomes a real PITA to get the car in and out of the garage. I may run the stock springs this year if I don't add all of the parts that I list below. LOL! Its funny that you say that because I will be buying the following in a month or so from a local guy that has a world challenge car. He's going to a watts link setup and removing the following: -MM HD torque arm -MM panhard bar -MM road race LCA's -Bilstein shocks with 8"325lb coil-over springs -MM adjustable sway bar -TA rear end girdle -'03 Cobra front bilsteins I have also purchased a set of new Koni single adjustable sport struts. I will be buying MM caster camber plates and subframe connectors soon too. I had a chance to buy my buddies evolution motorsports tri-link/watts link setup but since Evolution went out of business I decided against it. Its a better setup than the TA, but I want to know I have continued product support and I doubt MM is going anywhere anytime soon. I don't know if I'll put all of these parts on this year or not. I can run the panhard bar in ESP but not the TA since it can't be connected to the subframe connectors. If I put it all on I'll be in CP. Notquik- I had it on my '95 prior to me going with the fox TB setup. I got it from a buddy of mine. I know Morpheous went out of business many years ago due to some illegal activity outside of the mustang world. Its a shame as its a nice piece!
looks nice i know why you don't want in esp ,cause there is a wicked fast svo in that class already lol
OMG! Paul my engine bay sadly loooks similar to the way yours started out. What did you use to clean that engine bay?
OOOOoo.... i like the look of that! all you need to do is lower that a wee bit and you may have one of the sexiest cobras i've seen. very fresh looking.
