Back in a Cobra (04 Cobra) pics

Oh yea!
More than you can afford pal.Obviously depends on vert/coupe, mods, dealer/private etc. I bought this from a dealer out of state and paid in the upper 20's for it. Probably a grand more than it would have sold privately but it's hard to finance these cars these days so I took what I could get.
Thanks. Yeah, I didn't realize it was 4 holes, normally I only see two but oh well.
Nothing major honestly. Like I said, I have the exterior parts I basically want to get it looking how I want. I ordered the Borla Stingers for it but everyone is out of stock so who knows when that will show up. Other than that, if I do anything it will be a pulley and intake and that's it. No big blower or anything. I want something reliable and fun to drive. I don't go out acting a fool anymore so I don't need a 600hp car, at least at the moment.
Very nice Cobra. I said the same thing and stuck with it for a couple years. However, next thing I know last year I’m putting a VMP gen 2, long tubes, etc... Some days I wish I would’ve just stayed a Eaton pulley/ tune car. Enjoy the new ride.

Suck it!
lol I payed a pretty penny for these
Thank you. The mod bug bites everyone but I'm going to really try and restrain myself and just be easy with this one.
Congrats Clark. I always loved your TB 01 Cobra.
IMO, a ported eaton and longtubes is the best setup as far as reliability, fun to drive factory and $ wise. I had a hell of a lot of fun with my cobra with that setup.
Enjoy man! PS, I spy some nice wheels in the background of one of the pics...

Thanks Ray! I really miss my 01, loved that car too!
I'll look into the port thing. Who's the company to go to now?
Mine was a Steggy Stage 3, an early port (which I hear are some of their best work?). To be honest I haven't researched Cobra modifications since I sold the car 3 years ago. But if you find a used Steggy, that's what I would do. All you need is a bigger maf, 60 lb injectors and a BAP and you're good to go!
Stupid clean Cobra - nice find!
Just got my 1 owner 03 with 25k miles. Borla Stingers sounds amazing on a stock Cobra - just installed mine.

That's awesome OP! Same color as my Terminator. Definitely get rid of the 4x4 look. The car has great potential. Heads turn everywhere I go with mine. Totally worth it.
The only thing that sucks for me right now is while the Killer Chiller is doing a great job of bringing coolant temps down my cabin air is not cold enough and I will have to drive around with a towel to prevent sweating on the seats. I did purchase industrial refrigerant years ago but the shop ended up not using it and filling with the standard refrigerant. I read somewhere that the industrial refrigerant is harsh on lines but will have to dig into it. But I would like the cabin air to be a bit cooler than it is now with AC running.

Totally agree. My Terminator was a daily for the first few months after I bought it. It saw a few rain storms and at the time I thought nothing of it and just drove it like any other car. But I knew I had to get another car before winter because I did not want to get salt on the car. So it was never driven in winter on salty roads. Now it is a garage queen and I would not dream of driving it in rain. I don't even wash the car with water anymore lol! The longer I have the car the more paranoid I become about driving it in traffic, on less than perfect roads etc. It might be a nice day out and lawn sprinklers wet the roads - gotta watch out for those as well even on a perfect day!
Right on, congrats! I love how stingers sound. I was told the estimated ship date is Aug. 2nd. Can't wait to get them on, the car is way too quiet.
Check stage 3 Motorsports. That’s where I got mine, they might still have their Borla sale. Got it shipped to my door in 3 days. In stock
It says 0 in stock. I already purchased mine so I'll just wait but thanks.
Man that thing looks flawless. Congrats.
Congrats on the Terminator, is it your first one? Can you share your experience with the GT500 and Z06, what years were they and what drove you to getting a Terminator? I remember your true blue Cobra rolling around here back in the day, always liked the sound of it.
