My wife and I just moved to NW AR. Wondering if there are any cobras/mustangs that like to hang. Also where the good shops are in the area. I have seen a couple of modified stangs around but mostly stock with old ladies driving them, including a 99 cobra with a grandma driving it?!

Does anyone know why the FRPP High-Temp Hose Kite for 86-93 won't fit the 94-95? Also, I have a significant coolant leak coming from the thermostat housing. I replaced the gasket and that fixed it for a day. But now its leaking severely again. Any ideas why?

I don't get sound out of my left side door speaker unless I crank the stereo up very, very loud. I have an older aftermarket Alpine head unit, and I just put in Pioneer 3-way speakers all around. I thought the new speakers would fix the problem, but it hasn't. Now I am wondering if its a power...

Starting yesterday I am hearing on weird noise coming from underneath. It sounds like clicking and squeaking at low rpm's, right when the torque is increasing. At freeway speeds 75+ there is an unusual vibration through the shifter, more than normal. My guess is that its the tranny or the...

I was wondering who was going to the May 14th Hooters meet/cruise. Hoping to get a convoy from San Diego to meet up with everyone at Santa Monica City College :beer: Who's down????

Check 'em out. I know my car isn't the cleanest. I had it washed yesterday and it already looks like crap. That's SoCal for ya. Also, sorry its so big but I can't/don't know how to shrink it.

Ok, I got 18x9's with 275/35's, tokico springs/shocks/struts. The tokico's only lowered the car slightly, probably because I replaced the worn out rubber isolators with Energy Suspension urethane ones. I am satisfied with the lowering (I did not want to slam it), but now it is more noticable...

Just got my Chrome FR500's on and have realized that I need to lower. I am on a tight budget so I was wondering if anyone has used the Tokico set up: HP Shocks and Struts with their lowering springs. If I had the money I would probably go with Bilstein's and H&R's, but I don't. I am...

So I just ordered some 18x9 FR500's for my cobra and was wondering how wide of a tire I can go. I'm thinking about just getting all 4 corners 275/35. Will I have any rubbing issues up front when turning? My suspension is stock but I am looking to upgrade/lower in the future. Thanks people.

So I am making a slow (2 mph) left hand turn up a steep driveway on my campus, a turn I have made over a thousand times since september, and SNAP!, right side of the rear sway bar snaps. Now, I would not have been so frustrated if it was the stocker, but it wasn't. That one snapped in the...

Anyone ever experience any problems with their clocks? Mine just started to cut out. It only does it when I have my headlights/parking lights on. It works fine when the lights are off. Any thoughts??? :??:

Please Help! OK, I got the clutch and brake pedal covers on (what a friggin pain!:cuss: ) but how in the world do I remove the old dead and gas pedal? :shrug: And how do I put the new ones on?:??: I did a search but I didn't find anything helpful.

I have decided to upgrade to slotted rotors but not sure if I should go with the Brembo's or pay a little more for the Powerslots. I am also considering the dimpled Powerslots. Any advice/suggestions? Thanks people.

Where in San Diego is a good place to get brakes done? I would just order rotors and pads from tirerack but I don't have the tools or facilities to do the work. I haven't checked yet, but I am pretty sure the dealership will be expensive. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks
