    Detailed a Green Machine

    I do professional detailing and had a chance to detail this beauty yesterday. Snapped a few pics with the DSLR. Came in for a wash clay and seal and she left shining. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Nissan 300zxTT

    Hey guy, looking into getting a fun project car for the wifey. I've always been a fan of the Z line from Nissan and she also likes them. Wondering if anything has any experience with 90-96 300zx twin turbo. I don't see them around much anymore but they seem like a bad ass platform if you're...

    Chemical Guys Debacle

    Mods - I'm posting this here because I feel it makes the most sense. If this isn't the correct forum, my apologies. So I ordered a PC 7424XP kit a few weeks back. Used it on a few sections of my car and loved it. This is my first experience with a DA polisher, so I'm not aware of any "normal...

    Paint Correction On My Black 01

    I recently purchased the PC 7424XP from CG, and after one pass on the driver side quarter panel, I'm very impressed! I only have the one pic so far, but I'll be taking a lot along the way. Looking forward to seeing how she turns out. Product used was megs ultimate compound. I don't think it's...

    Looking For A Reasonably Priced Detail Kit

    I'm sure there's numerous threads on this but I couldn't find any. I'm looking for a decent detail kit(including a polisher). I know there are a few of them out from different makers, just wondering if you guys have any experience with any, and who you would recommend most. I hear a lot of...

    Finally Started Organizing The Garage

    It's been rainy and stormy all day so I decided to finally build my work bench and organize the garage. It's nothing special, just a one car, unpainted and unfinished. But it's something! Before and after, very happy with it. I'll be adding peg board and continuing to utilize wall space for...

    Just A Little Emblem Love

    Decided to throw some plastidip on the emblems on this roasting day here in south eastern PA. I did the two on the side and the SVT on the back. The front one is staying OEM to stand out a bit more. Very easy to pull off, hair dryer + already 100 degrees out = easy peel. Putting the new tape...

    Looking For A Good Track In PA/NJ/MD

    I've never been to a track before and now that I'm starting my build on cobra I'd like to start going. I'm looking for a circuit, not just a drag strip. I'm located close to Reading, so if anyone knows any circuits in the southeastern area that'd be great.

    What does a 150k Mile Throttle Body Look Like

    Finally decided to clean my throttle body as I had some free time today. I've owned the car for almost a year and haven't done this yet, have no idea how long it's been. It never had choppy idle or anything like, but it feels more "lively" in the pedal. Could just be in my head, who knows. Just...

    '01 Cobra, Best Setup For Street Ride/Corner Carver

    Hey Guys, So I've been thinking a lot lately about my build and I've decided to go more in the route of a "reliable" street/corner carver rather than an all out drag-focused car. Currently, the car has a few suspension mods like H&R springs, koni shocks. What are some other good mods to get...

    Anybody Reupholster Their Seats?

    So when I bought my Cobra, I vowed that I would at least try to do all of the work on my own, unless it was vastly beyond my skill. I know my way around a tool box but Im certainly no mechanic. Regardless, one of my next projects will be to reupholster the seats. I haven't decided if I want to...

    Cbora Racing Steering Wheel

    Okay I need some help - I saw a thread a while back that had a photo of what looked like a stock cobra steering wheel, but it had a flat bottom & was beefed up a bit. Not sure if the thread was specifically about it, but I remember the OP mentioning where he bought it from, and I'm interested in...

    What Did You Want To Be?

    When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A lot of people have dreams of being x & y when they grow up, but never achieve it. Did you make it? If not, is it something you still fantasize about? My dream ever since I was about 5 was to be an entrepreneur. I started my first...

    Looking For A New Daily - 2014 Focus?

    So I've been looking at the focus as a new daily. I have a kid coming within the next week, so I'm looking for something spacious and economical. I know that the focus had a lot of transmission issues, but I think that earlier on. Any major issues with the 2014 model? I was looking at possibly...

    Just Got A Letter From IRS

    So I received a letter from the IRS today saying that I owe them... $21k! I nearly had a panic attack. First thought it was a scam, and am still unsure if it is or isn't. It says that I have unreported income from 2014. I read the letter and apparently they're seeing income made from PayPal back...

    "My Threads" Info Is Missing

    So I click on "My Threads" and it only shows the threads that I've commented on today. I don't have any historical info there, wondering if anyone else is having the same problem?

    FS/FT 2001 Cobra Amber Tail Lights - Mint Condition

    I've decided to post up my tail lights from my 01 cobra. There are no issues with these lights. I'm not the original owner of the car but I have no reason to suspect that these are not the original lights, so they haven't been passed around among multiple owners. I haven't polished them up, only...

    Installing GT/V6 Tail Lights on 01 Cobra

    I'm debating throwing up my amber tail lights off my 01 cobra and just going with the stocker lights as replacement, but I'm not sure what it entails as far as wiring. Looked it up online but could only find tutorials on installing the ambers on GT's & Termi's. Anybody know how to go about doing...

    2001 Mustang Bullitt Worth $28k?

    Oil In The Spark Plug Well

    Finally got my torque wrench so I decided to change my plugs today. I've owned the car since September, so this is the first I'm doing so. I went from very happy when I realized that the previous owner had purchase Accel supercoils, to then sad when I pulled the 4th plug and noticed some oil...

    Cobra Hesitates Under Heavy Acceleration

    Just as title states, car hesitates under heavy/quick acceleration. What I mean is, if I slam on the throttle, she'll hesitate, almost "stall" a bit, and then go. If I just ease into full throttle, it accelerates fine. I just got a set of NKG plugs and am hoping that solves the problem, but was...

    Mac Users

    I'm trying to get my safari to expand to take up my whole screen(not going into fullscreen mode), and it's also such a PITA. I hold option & click the plus in the top left, but it doesn't also take up the whole screen, just expands a bit sometimes. Is there an easier way to fill up the whole...

    Finishing Poured Concrete Walls

    I'm closing on my first home next week and I would like to begin finishing the basement right away as a winter project. It has poured concrete walls, no studs or anything like that. I was googling a bit and saw some different methods but was wondering if anyone in here had any advice. I'm not a...
