I have the chromies on mine but really like the 10th wheels on some Cobra's I've seen (blue, silver, black cars). Not seen them on a white one yet so if you have some pics, please post them. Thanks!

Don't know if anyone else has this problem but when my stereo is on but no volume (both radio and CD) I get this click, click, click noise. Sounds like an old vinyl record at the end of the tracks. Not real loud but there for sure. Seems to come from the driver's side triangle speaker with...

I don't mind paying a little per song but will not pay a monthly fee. Thanks.

Engine Tick or Paranoia? Video clip w/ Sound I thought about doing some mods but may have an unusual engine noise when warmed up. Car is an '04 w/ 3,600 miles and the only mod is a cat back that has been on for about 50 miles. Engine always makes noise when cold but others I've heard do the...

Long before I got my '04, I'd read that Ford installed 12mm bolts on the front subframe mounts when they should have used 14s. I have read many different things from mags and performance suppliers but generally thought that typically early '03s had this issue. Turns out my '04 built in March...

My '04 is making a noise at idle that used to be present only when the engine was cold. Unless I am hearing things now that I did not hear before, it did not make the noise when warmed up. I have heard several of these cars idle when cold and some noise is present. Mine now makes the same...

Thinking that the easiest way to eliminate oil getting sucked through the breather tube on the pass valve cover under boost would be to install an open breather only on the pass side. I would retain the PCV on the driver's side. The pro would be no oil sucked into intake reducing the chance...

Hate to do it but I need to take my car in for some warranty work. The trans has been noisy in 1st and 5th since day one and now the steering has that anoying squeek plus the A/C vents rattle and one window leaks (has since new) and some other misc things. At one time I could look at the...

Saw this thing at home depot that was red and hooked up to the end of the p. washer wand. Was about 12" diameter and was like a bowl that would be placed upside down on a flat surface. Supposed to wash more than just the little stream that comes out of the wand. Anyone use one of these and...

I know everyone will recommend someone else's tool but I would like to hear from those that have used Steeda's. Opinions, please.

Planning on going with a 2.93 but do not want to loose the belt cover. A friend told me about an idler pulley that mounted in a different location than the typical units. Supposed to be a KB or Whipple and you can keep your factory belt cover. I've looked on their web sites but I don't see...

I want to go with a 2.93 and have a few questions. 1. if I go with a no-slip, I not need an idler pulley, nor a smaller belt, correcct? 2. who makes a no-slip 2.93, non-interchange pulley? 3. I will get this dyno tuned and figure a SAFE afr to be 11.5 - 11.8 and 19 degrees of timing...

I want to paint my garage floor and I will need enough for about 1,200 sq ft. I painted a garage once using some water based stuff from wal-mart and it had a big problem w/ hot tire pick up (eventhough it claimed to "resist" that). I've heard that the kit you can buy at home depot works well...

I found this link and tried to hook my LM-1 up with the RPM converter and laptop : http://www.chicagosvt.com/forums/showthread.php3?t=5288 I can't seem to get a clean signal from this test cable. The RPMs seem okay at idle but holding the engine steady at about 1,200 shows the RPMs going...

In my last move I misplaced my LM-1 serial cable that is used to hook the LM-1 to a PC. I can buy one from Innovate for $13 plus S&H but wondered if anyone knew if Radio Shack or someplace else would also have this. Don't really care about saving a dollar but it will take about 6 days to get one...

What I can't figure out is that as soon as the wind began to blow in the Gulf, gas prices here began to go up, and did so until they got to $3.00. About a $.50 per gal increase within 24 hrs. Now, the reason for the increase, as I've been told, is due to rigs in the Gulf being shut down due...

I know this is basic but I've been using bath towels for about 20 years b/c I heard a chamois will strip wax. Are there any better methods for drying that will not remove wax?

Trying to decide what movie I want to see and though this looked like the best out there - or the worst but I don't know.

Yes, the dealer has it but damn, $18.50 per quart!!! What a rip. I called Mobil and they make it but I have checked with Pep Boys, Advance, Auto Clone and a few smaller places but no one carries the Mobil. I have found 85-140 but I can see my warranty getting voided on if I had a rear prob.

Saw a post somewhere a few days back with a link or user ID of someone on one of these boards that sells the Cobra service manual on CD for around $20 or so. I need to buy one but I can't find the post. Anyone help?

Those with aftermarket gauges, stock radiator and factory fan settings (basically a stock car), what temp does the engine run when getting good air flow and the A/C off (ie cruise speed - not stop light driving)?

Car has 1,300 miles on it and since day one, it vibrates badly at 85+ MPH (so bad I can't see out of the rear mirror). I have searched and seems like the dealer will not correct the prob and folks are taking it into their own hands with pinion angle changes, driveshaft indexing and...

Picked up a new '04 a few months back at a dealer in FL. I waxed it for the first time and noticed that the Left front fender was covered with little tiny bubbles or pimples. I could not find any on the hood or door next to the fender but there seem to be a few on the right fender also (like...

to help draw cool air from the fenderwell and how well does it do it? I see the seal there but don't know if that is more for marketing or if it actually does something. I am trying to decide between this and the C&L air filter kit that just comes with a shield that surrounds about 1/3 of...

Looking for the cheapest way to make a little more sound and power. The PC is by far the least expensive but just wanted to get opinions from those who have made mods. At some point, I would probably do both but for now thought I'd just do the PC (that is really all of the money I have saved...
