    Suspension

    My '03 Cobra Convertible with 103k miles rides rougher than it did back when it was young. What do y'all recommend to bring it back? I like a comfortable ride, and I do love the way the Cobra stays flat around curves. By the way, I just had a Centerforce Dyad clutch put in, and the pedal...

    After 10.5 years and 100k miles, I visited the dyno again

    My car was completely stock when I took it to the dyno in October 2002 with 4000 miles on the odometer. The highest RWHP reading was 383 and the average of three runs was about 379. Since then, I have done nothing to the engine except a tune up around 80k miles and couple of coil pack...

    What(Grill emblem) tool do I need? Where can I get it?

    A local shop replaced by stock grill Mustang with a Cobra emblem, and I'd like to put the Mustang back. It looks like a tamper-proof set of screws with a head that looks like it would fit an allen wrench with curves but it has a little nipple in the middle to block a standard wrench.

    Transmission shop in North Atlanta

    Can anyone recommmend a good transmission shop in North Atlanta? She is stiff going into the gears. The dealer that has done all my work said the pedal pressure was too high and thinks it's a bad clutch. That doesn't sound right at all, since these cars come with abnormally stiff...

    Shifter is stiff, harder to get into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th

    My cobra's shifter is stiff, harder to get into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th if I am accelerating quickly. Dropping it into first is no problem and it's not difficult if I drive like a grandma. There is no grinding. Clutch is good. thanks much

    Help me figure out what's wrong

    My cobra's shifter is stiff, harder to get into 2nd, 3rd, and 4th if I am accelerating quickly. Dropping it into first is no problem and it's not difficult if I drive like a grandma. There is no grinding. Clutch is good.

    Smelling antifreeze when I start the car

    I'm smelling antifreeze when I start the Cobra after it has set a while, most likely from the exhaust. I have some ideas what might cause this, but I thought I would come here to the source of all information. What could this be?

    Do I need a new flywheel?

    I am replacing the stock clutch with a Centerforce DF. One place I called said it is recommended to replace the stock flywheel at the same time. Is that needed? By the way, my son-in-law, a fine young man in every other way, burned up my clutch. He was accustomed to his low torque BMW and...

    I need replacement engine advice

    I gave my daughter my 97 Tbird when she was a senior at GA Tech about 5 years ago. It had 97k miles. Now it has 163k miles and she is ready for a new car, in part because of the metal-on-metal sounds she heard from the engine today. I may need to put a new engine in it. I'd like more power...

    Atlanta subframe connectors installers

    Does anyone know a good installer for subframe connectors in Atlanta? I am hoping they can stiffen my convertible. Do you think the subframe connectors will damp the wheel hop? The cold weather this week has turned the car into a jumping bean.

    Convertible Owners -- check for loose staples

    I notice some lumps on the rear-most bar of my convertible top. I lifted the top to the full upright position (pointing up into the air), removing the tension on the fabric sufficiently to look under the flap over the rear window. The staples holding the fabric to the bar were coming out...

    Boost at Low RPMs

    In an earlier thread, there was a discussion about the risk of overheating the engine with boost at low rpms -- such as accelerating in 6th gear up a grade from 45. I turned on the digital water temperature gauge hidden in the odometer (that is a really cool feature) to do some tests. So...

    Any 03 Cobra engines in TBirds?

    Has anyone put a Supercharged Cobra engine into a TBird? I have an 2003 Cobra Convertible and I gave my daughter my '97 TBird. I do love the way the TBird drives, and I bet it would scream with the kind of power my Cobra has.

    Check engine light came on

    Why would that happen at just over 10000 miles? I will take it in to the dealer in the morning. It wasn't a loose gas cap.

    Hole punched in Intercooler Radiatior

    It looks like something hard and small bounced up off the road and punched a small hole in my intercooler radiator. Coolant was leaking on the garage floor. I don't think I drove it far with it low on cooler. I had it towed into the dealer and they said it would be about $650 for a new...
