What kind of power are you making and what gearing to hold that type of speed through turns 1 and 2. My 99' cobra has a 3650 and 330whp with 3.90's and I'm stuck around 125mph in 4th gear.
I'm looking for a local shop to go over my 99' Cobra and make sure everything is good to go for a track day and perform an alignment. I use to do all the work myself and have west end do the alignment but they are booked up and I don't have time anymore and I'd like to make it to willow springs...

I have a set of 95' cobra r replica rims for sale. Two are 17x9 and two are 17x10.5 with a dish. They are black with metal lip and in good condition. They have 275/40/17 toyo RA1's that I used for road racing that are used up and really only good for burnouts.
Typical 5x114.3 bolt pattern and...
I haven't tried that. I know the holes are a bit elongated so that might work but effectively that's more negative camber.
They suggested I run -3 degrees camber, which i don't mind as the car is mainly a track car but I don't want to chew everything up.
My biggest problem right now is the...
So what did you do? Here they are mounted with 0.8" spacing with 275/40/17 R888 tires. I moved the spring perch all the way down so i can manipulate the wheel travel and articulation. This is pushed up as far as I can go before it starts coming off the jack stand.
I included some photos of it.
Five years ago I bought 17x9.5 + 38mm offset RPF1's and now five years later I got around to doing the wheel studs and installing the Enkei's. Unfortunately, I forgot what I had bought the 39/64" drill bit for and I didn't rheem the front hubs and I ended up messing them up. I bought a new set...
Well five years later I got around to doing the wheel studs and installing the Enkei's. Unfortunately, I forgot what I had bought the 39/64" drill bit for and I didn't rheem the front hubs and I ended up messing them up. I bought a new set of timken's, rheemed them, and installed the new studs...
Hey guys, my NT555's are dried out and cracked after 15k miles, 35k miles total on the truck, and I need to replace them. According to Nitto's website the G2's and NT05's are no longer made in 295/45/18. I want a semi sticky tire, I don't go to the track, that can handle the 450hp and 540tq my...
Awesome and congrats. Isn't the record for a "street" car 5.14 over there? When i use to frequent Irwindale years ago the battle was always between a notchback mustang and grand national right around the 5.1X mark.
Its been about 4-5 years though.
You are right that it won't actually build oil pressure. I've noticed that on my oil pressure gauge on my cobra. It won't actually even build any pressure but if it can circulate some oil so the vital parts at least have some oil on them topically then that will have to do.
Hey Guys i'm going to be pulling my 04 Lightning out of storage this weekend and it hasn't been started in a while. I tried searching the internet to see if there was a method to priming the engine before starting it but didn't find anything applicable. The manual transmission 4.6's will crank...
Hey guys i need help dealing with Ford. I've attached my post from fordtaurus.net but those guys were useless. I know you guys are crafty and smart so i'm hoping you guys have some good advice on how I should proceed with this problem.
This is my 8th ford in about 14 years and I have to say...
Hey guys. Does anyone know of a place that does race alignments other than west end and emi racing in the so cal area? Erics not picking up homis phone for the last two weeks and darin is booked, and rude, on top of it.
Thanks

Hey Guys, I've been researching this for about three weeks and can't find very detailed information about the fitment of Enkei RPF1's and 13" Brembo's. I've found a good thread on corral which has a member running the 17x10's on all four corners with the front's sticking out a bit but nothing...
Hey Guys,
I just learned about the existence of this jacket this week and i'm pretty upset that I never received my jacket. My family has owned our 99 Cobra since April of 99 (brand new) and my father was the originator of the class action lawsuit for the lack of horsepower and leather...
Hey Guys as the title states i'm looking for a good trustworthy mechanic near the montebello area. I'm about 8 miles east of downtown L.A. and i'm tired of getting my SVT Focus towed to different mechanics who just throw parts at cars.
I use to use Jesus in pomona who works out of his house...
I have two sets of 28 spline axles for sale. One is the oem set that came with my 99 Cobra and the other is a aftermarket upgraded set from Raxxles. These have been discontinued for a while so they are hard to find. I've attached pictures of the Raxxles set below, they are 13 years old but are...
