    Pics of 2005 convertable

    Haven't seen these either, thanks. I'm not a big fan of the tan top with the black.

    H&R sema car

    When is it ever practical? ...does this roof scoop actually connect to anything in this mustang?

    What are some good/cheap rotors?

    NAPA sells rotors for about $30 each. (That was for my '01 Cobra..I would imagine your's would be similar)

    New 04 or Keep my 02 GT

    BTW... from what I remember when I considered the whole tax thing...I calculated I would get just a small tax break (maybe a couple of hundred dollars), but it's relatively low compared to how much you can make if you sell it privately ($2000 more than trade in).

    New 04 or Keep my 02 GT

    So, have any of you considered trading up to a 04 Cobra from an 01? That's what I'm thinking about doing...my dealer said they will give me $18k for my 01 cobra vert and sell me the 04 cobra vert for about $38k (with 0% financing for 5 years). Do you guys have any comments?

    Can one of you guys answer his question.... I still need clarification on this issue too. Thanks.

    faulty boost gauge???

    Good info...thanks alfman. It just goes to show that these salesmen don't know jack about the cars they are selling. BTW: The cobra I test-drove had less than 200 miles (i think it was around 80). So that would fall in line with what the SVT rep told you

    faulty boost gauge???

    You bring up a good point... Do you have to mash the pedal to the floor for the boost to go to max? Now that I think about it, I may not have made the engine go Wide Open Throttle. However, I did get on it, so it still doesn't make sense to me that the car felt sluggish for a 400hp...

    faulty boost gauge???

    I test drove a new 04 Cobra and I noticed the boost gauge never got above, lets say, 2 PSI. The salesman said it might need recalibration or something like that, but he assured me that the SC was working. But what was odd is that I didn't feel the surge in power that I would expect from a...

    Roush 03' Cobra Saleen S281 for sale

    So where can we find more information about these Saleen Cobras? I am contemplating buying one, but I guess my main concern is it really worth the extra dough ($53000 for a new '04 black Saleen Cobra convertible). I always get the arguement that it will holds its value more than a regular...

    T&J Performance Dyno Day Aug 14th-15th (Alpharetta, GA)

    So, are you saying two identical, stock cars will respond differently...and you've seen variations as high as 20 rwhp on stock cars? Also, would it be safe to assume that the N/A tuning T&J provides is better suited for those who have done some mods to the engine/intake/exhaust? -Dave

    T&J Performance Dyno Day Aug 14th-15th (Alpharetta, GA)

    I noticed they will do tuning for N/A engines...what exactly can that do for a stock 01 cobra or 02 GT?

    isnt 1st year of new model a wait & see??

    Another example of a mid-year change was with the '03 4Runner... the latter set got an upgraded towing capacity, body color cladding, and a couple of other things that I can't remember right now. Another reason to wait another year would be for safety enhancements...i.e. The government has...

    borrow Hypertech programmer in the ATL?

    Hey ATL...do any of you have a Hypertech Programmer (or something similar) that I could borrow/use. I'll buy you a case of your favorite beer. :) I have a 01 Cobra and I would like to see if the programmer would do me any good.

    No 18 inch wheel eveyone e-mail ford and scream

    Wow! That's a really good explanation. You should have seen Sean Hyland in that episode of Sports Car Revolution...it took him awhile to figure out why they lost RWHP in their Acura car after plus-sizing the wheels

    No 18 inch wheel eveyone e-mail ford and scream

    As luck would have it... the Speed channel is airing that very episode that I was talking about. According to my Dish Network guide, it will be on at 7:30 pm EDT on Tuesday and again on Friday at 10:30 am EDT.

    No 18 inch wheel eveyone e-mail ford and scream

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet... Not only does a larger wheel add more unsprung weight, but it can also rob RWHP (even if the larger wheel weighs less than stock). I can't remember all the details, but if you watch Sports Car Revolution, you would know what I'm talking about...
