I bought an 04 Cobra with a Team Z Metal Matrix K Member and non adjustable arms. It’s also has Strange 10-way Coil Overs with 175# springs. There is no front sway bar and the rear has H&R Race Springs and QA1 Double Adjustables.
Honestly with Houston Streets, this setup is not desirable. I’m not liking this setup as its easy to bottom out. I called Maximum and they emailed me a recommended list that involves changing out the K member, controls arms and everything. It was 4,500 bucks. Nice stuff but.. Damn!
They mentioned the K member was strictly for drag racing and that the control arms could fail under heavy braking due to their not being gussets between the tubes where they connect to the K member.
What can I do to get closer to stock and be happier? This is a weekend toy that I may want to do some HPD AutoX weekends, roll racing, street romps.
I got a factory sway bar on the way from eBay. I want to maybe swap the front and rear shocks out for Bilsteins and put matching H&R front springs in the front. Maybe a bump steer kit. I have MMCaster Camber Plates already.
What would you do? Thanks!!
