    Which Mustang/Cobra/Shelby to buy?

    Note: I'm in Japan, so please do not consider or worry about prices. Different market. I'm interested in buying another Mustang... perhaps, but don't know which one would suit me best. I stopped looking at Mustangs when the Shelby came out because it wasn't a hand-built motor anymore...

    Internals: 2005 Mustang GT vs 2003 Cobra

    Not talking about power, just the internals (pistons, rods, etc), how good are the S197's internal compared to the 03/04 Cobras? I know the 03/04 Cobras have excellent internals. Do you think a stock brand new 2005 Mustang GT with a Kenne Bell is as reliable as a mildly used 2003 Cobra?

    Supercharger with 108k motor - rebuild or new engine?

    I'm saving up for a Procharger this year. I'll have about 5k saved up by fall. My engine has 108k miles on it now. I was planning on running 8-10psi since I have no forged internals. The engine runs great, but I want 15-20psi later on down the road so I planned on getting the engine rebuilt...

    Child Seats + Rear Seat Delete anyone?

    My son is almost 2 now. One of the best things for me is to go driving with him. He mimicks my hand as I shift gears, and he makes noises with his mouth that sound like the engine. It's the coolest thing for me. I don't go fast or drive hard, but the seat belt doesn't hold his child seat...

    What do you think of these taillights?

    READ FIRST. I don't like aftermarket taillights for our cars, but what if I took these taillights and tinted them limo. It would have a very smooth finish blending in perfectly with black Mustangs, and would not see the 'altezza' or oem look, but just a clean plain black finish. Plus the...

    What the difference between the 05 GT engine and 96-98 Cobras?

    Basically as the thread states. Is the engine a complete redesign? Our cars are rated at 305/300 stock. That's a 4.6L 32v 4605cc engine. The 05s are rated at 300/320 stock with a 4.6L 24v 4606cc engine. By those specs, the 05 should be inferior, but they're nicely matched to our Cobras. So...

    ABS Light on - Why?

    Why would the ABS light turn on aside from the actual ABS system being activated? I turned on the car, and after the initial lamp test, the ABS light came back on. I turned off the car, and turned it on a few minutes later, but it stayed on. I drove around, but no change. I thought it would...

    Should I get a 99/01 Cobra?

    This is just a long term question, I'm just asking. Keep in mind that this is a project car. Planned mods are most likely to happen. Planned future mods: - Realistic future (this year) - Tranny swap to T-56 (or TKO 500) - Add aftermarkey traction control - Replace to aftermarket IRS...

    T-56 Guys

    For those that have already swapped out the tranny for a T-56, was it as nice as you thought it would be?

    Croatia vs Japan - Who's watching the game?

    So who's watching the game? Great game so far! Definitely not a 'constant' game. Even though I'm cheering for Japan because of my family, Croatia has some really nice foot work today. I think it will end 0-1 for Croatia.

    3rd to 4th gear problem - T45

    When I first bought the Cobra, I found shifting this vehicle very different to a 99+ GT (Tremec 3650). It was heavier and harder. At first I thought it was just me. I hated the shifter so that was changed about a week after buying the Cobra to a MGW shifter. The clutch is too high and long...
