    XXR 570

    Hey sorry to bring up an old thread but did you ever get an answer for this? I'm looking at those exact wheels and specs and trying to figure out fitment issues. Thanks

    What color paint for rotors

    Hey guys, So I finally was able to find some G2 caliper paint kit locally. Its nearly impossible to find this stuff up north. Anyways, I have a black 04 cobra and plan on painting the calipers red and leaving the COBRA lettering the stock metallic look. Before I start painting the calipers I...

    H&R Race springs (a few ?'s)

    Hey fellas, Currently my car is sitting on stock springs with 1 full coil cut all around. It rides very well and sits just about right where I want her. I've been thinking of swapping the stock springs for some H&R Race springs as many of you have done. My questions: How much...

    KDW II on 18" AFS replicas (pics)

    Hey fellas, Well after a very long time saving up I finally got the wheel/tire combo I've craved for so long. Tires are 275/35/18 (front) and 335/30/18 (rear) KDW 2 (aka KDW NT). Wheels are very familiar I'm sure AFS 18" cobra replicas. I've got some before and after shots for comparisons...

    What's better cutting or rolling fenders?

    Hey fellas, Installing 335's on a 18/10.5 cobra reps soon and I definately will need more clearance out back. My questions are simple, should I roll the fenders or cut/trim them? Would cutting the fenders give me more clearance than rolling them? What are the pros and cons of each? Any...

    Thinking of going kdw II 335/30/18

    Hey fellas, After researching for a few months now I decided to go with the KDW II (aka KDW-NT) as they are the size I was looking for as well as an incredible tread pattern (the best in my opinion). I will be going with kdw's all around (275/35/18 fronts and 335/30/18 rears). I did however...

    Back from the track

    Hey fellas, I went to the drag strip yesterday and did some runs. My friends and I rented the track for the day so it was awesome. I got a ton of runs in with plenty of time to try different methods. All in all I was satisfied with the results considering it was 12 degrees C and the fact...

    1st time at track after mods

    Hey fellas, well I'm finally going to the local drag strip next week with a few friends. I haven't raced my car since the pulley swap. So I'm just curious as to what numbers to expect given optimal track conditions. Keep in mind it's starting to get chilli up here 12-16 degrees C. I'm running...

    1st time at a road course. (need advice)

    Hey fellas, well I've done the drag strip a few times and love it. Now i am planning on going to Shannonville raceway (it's a local track) and wanted some pointers from some who have raced their terminators on the track. My mods are in my sig. I'm not gonna rip the crap out of her until I'm...

    Front Plate Alternatives

    Hey fellas, I've been getting pulled over way too many times these days and honestly...i am so sick of it. I run my car without a front plate and love the look but hate getting harrassed by the cops all the time. I'm sure they have better things to do with their precious time but we'll keep...

    Just installed JLT RAI....WOW

    Hey fellas, Installed the JLT RAI this sunday. I got the carbon fibre one cuz i have a black car and wanted something that would stand out a bit more than a simple black pipe. Anyhoo...installation was a breeze and I can fully understand why so many ppl choose the rai setup over the...

    Drop or Raise

    Well I lowered my cobra last summer. I cut the stock springs 1 full coil all around. When the car is parked and no one is in it it sits perfectly level. But I have been told by others that when 2 ppl are sitting in it the back tends to be a bit lower than the front (which I hate...that look...

    Finally decided its time

    Hey fellas, Well I have had my 04 cobra for just over 2 years now and all I have done to her was exhaust (BBK O/R x and Mac CB), intake (JLT RAI) and suspension (cut springs). thats it. I have been happy with the car for a while but I feel its time to take it to the next level. I am in no...

    Pro Vs. Joe

    Hey everyone, Well I have a slight dilemma. I don't know whether to take my car to a pro and have it fully detailed or to tackle it myself and do it all from scratch. My concerns are the cost of buying everything that I would need since i don't have anything but a wash bucket and whatever i...

    Terminator Vs NSX

    Well on my way back from the shop (installed new brakes) I was literally almost home when I see a white Acura NSX. It was the older models with the pop up lights. From what I saw and heard it was just dropped, rims and piped...so basically stock. Ironically my mods are identical minus the...
