So I had a thread about having it as a feeler and now knowing if I was going to sell it. Things came up now and someone put an offer on the house I am wanting to buy, so the car has to go ASAP. So this is my legitimate for sale ad. I DO NOT WANT to sell the car, but as responsibilities have taken a different route in life I have to do these. I'm only 24 so I will one day own one once again!

CAR IS OFFICIALLY SOLD





I Just finished the build of this car about two months ago (I'm constantly changing things with the car to make it better :D ). I've driven it a bunch since it has been finished and had a GREAT time with it already. This car is not only a street monster but basically a show car as well. Car was originally a DD when stock, but for the past 2 years the car has been garage kept. The convertible top STILL looks BRAND new...and doesn't have the billow effect some do. Car is driven MAYBE once every 2 weeks. Car has NEVER been to the track


Car is a 2003 Terminator. Body of the car has 73,XXX miles on it. Pretty much the only thing stock on this car is the tranny and parts of IRS. I will probably forget to add a bunch of mods in this so if you have any questions, ask away.


Have receipts for EVERYTHING. I have a HUGE folder.



Engine:
MMR Street Mod 1000 shortblock. Engine has 1,500 miles on it.

*9.0:1 Compression ratio

*New 4340 5.933 Manley H-beam Rods w/ARP bolts (These US made rods are shotpeened, magnafluxed and weight matched to bring the finest H-beam rod available for the 4.6)
*New Forged MMR/Manley or Diamond pistons 3.552 Bore size (High or low compression)
*Speed Pro file fit rings (precision file fit to my application: turbo)
*Speed Pro/Federal Mogul Rod and Main bearings
*Complete Pro Assembly and Balancing for the smoothest, highest revving shortblock available.
*MMR block side bolts
*ARP Main/Head studs
*Felpro Head gaskets

Transmission:

-Ram HD Clutch. Easily holds the power. Has 2,000 miles on it.
-Fiore Firewall adjuster and quadrant
-Brand new 2001 cobra clutch cable



Suspension:
-QA1 coil-overs in front

-Aeromotive regulator
-CPR fuel rails
-All XRP lines and fittings
-60lb fuel injectors (easily enough to make over 800whp according to Greg at RET)


Exhaust:
-Straight pipe from turbos to magnaflow magnapacks. Sounds like the car would be ridiculously loud, but at idle it isn't bad at allll.


Power Adder:
-HP Twin Turbo kit with 57mm Garrett turbos.
-Dual Turbonetics raptor blow-off valves
-Duel tial 38mm wastegates
-Currently having custom downpipes being made for the car
-Custom oil sump
-Moroso oil scavenge pump
-XRP oil feed/return lines

Interior:

-Silver painted interior pieces
-SOS dual gauge pillar
-Speedhut fuel pressure gauge
-Speedhut boost/vacuum gauge
-Autometer steering column gauge pod
-Innovate Motorsports DB Series Wideband Gauge Kit with LC-1 wideband



Tune:
-Custom Dyno Tune from RET


Appearance:
-Smoked headlights with clear corners
-Smoked foglights
-Smoked tail light overlay
-Car has ALL XRP fittings and lines
-Complete wrinkle black powder-coating of all engine parts...even including fuel rails and coolant crossover.
-True Forged hood vents
-Polished tailpipes



Wheels and Tires:
-True Forged 18x9, 18x11 3-piece Victorys with satin black centers and lips, polished assembly bolts and center caps (will be putting on black center caps to see how they look this week).
-BFG 315/30/18 DRs





The motor was broken in according to specs from the builders. The car was dyno'd right after the motor was broken in. We were losing fuel pressure so we didn't push it to the max (why the triple hat is going in). The new fuel hat will allow 1,200whp easily.

Car made 716rwhp/696rwtq on 19#'s of boost with only 13* of timing (being extremely safe on the new motor). With the new fuel hat and sullivan upper/lower, car will easily make 800whp. Have dyno sheets and vids of all proof as well.









Here's a little video to hear what the car sounds like...open wastegates:

Good point, but a car like this becomes part of your soul. Never had a house do that for me. I like to ride nice!! I would trade in my hefty mortage payment and live in a singlewide to have a car like this. Wife does not see it the same. Beautiful car!!

Wish I could afford your car Brandon, I would be a buyer in about 2 seconds, one of the best looking Cobras I have ever seen, and when I heard it run at Gregg's shop I was like :rockon: I need a ride before it goes away however! :burnout:

Exactlyyyy it definitely does. It literally hurts to do this, feels like I'm giving a child away. But with how young I am and where I'm at financially I should be able to get into another one or even a new gt500 in about a year or so. This is so I can buy the house I want.

Thank you Jason!! And I definitely will take you for a ride in it!! It's a whole different feeling from the big blowers! I have a couple serious offers already, so I'll take you for a ride asap!

Good luck!! Sweet Cobra!!

I haven't installed it yet. It's a bolt in but if I install it I will probably have it welded in as well. It depends on the person who buys the car if they want it or not.

Ok, would you sell the cage outright? i'm in the market for a bolt in cage. are the door bars swing outs?
