I've owned my Terminator for 19 months now. I got it with 11K miles, it has 16K on it now. It also came with a CAI, I put on a shifter, shorty antenna, and Mac 3" within a month of buying it. I bought my BF pullies for the swap back in January, and have yet to do it. :uh oh: Money isn't the issue, I just haven't taken the time nor made the dyno appointment to get it done, and with winter on it's way, I know I won't get it done this year. I just really like driving the car as it sits and yes, I'm really lazy. :poke:

So anyone else lazier than me? Let me hear your stories... :-D

Install them yourself and order a tune from one of the many reputable mail-order tuners. Spend the money you saved on a wideband A/F and you can do your own verification.

Funny you mention this. Not long after I got my GT, I got beat by a Mopar Stage 1 SRT-4. The next day, I ordered 4.10's for it. :D

I have companies gapping my plugs for me and I've never wiped the inside of my car since owning this thing. I don't even wash the car. I wait until it rains. My wheels got manually washed for the first time by my tuner when I dropped off the car. Thats lazy my friends.

I'm certainly lazy about certain things in life, but when it comes to making my Cobra faster, I'm all over it. I've been messing with this durn car for over 4 years now non-stop and my wife (and neighbors.......), think I'm half crazy because there's been many a night that I stayed up till 3 or 4 in the morning, putting on some part that'll make it perform better.......

When it comes to the car i dont hold back. I ordered subframes before my 04 was in my possession. My cars are spotless. Look brand new as if they came off the showroom floor.I cant sleep if my car is dirty. I have washed the car at night before i pull it in the garage of its real dirty! haha i know i know

This is a funny thread!
I have owned mine for 3 months. Driven it about 8 times. Washed it about 10 times. Put gas in it once.
I ordered a bf brace, Irs bushings, and a set of sport springs. It is still in trunk of my maxima(daily driver). Also have a mach1 intake somewhere, just incase I decide to go turbo (ha ha whatever).
Oh, wifey doesn't know I have all the stuff in the trunk so please don't tell!

Jesus.

Not lazy here. I starting swapping parts on my 04' two weeks after it was purchased brand new. And I've changed 99% of the parts that were already installed on this 03'. And it gets washed at least 3 times a week and the dust wiped off after every drive.

;aziness sometimes works out for you. I had a ton of parts in my closet for my 99 cobra. sold it and got an 03. now the 03 has most of those parts on it. last thing to go on will be polyurathane bushings I have had for 4 years

I'm lazy too. I bought a 2.93, subframes and rack bushings over the winter and still have yet to install them. 3 years of ownership and I have a whopping 3 mods(intake, exhaust, shifter). I'm slow with the modifications.....

Sadly my car hasn't been washed for a few months. It's a DD and it's been raining plenty this summer in Texas. I've also had a pulley, belt, plugs, idler + bracket sitting in my house for over a year. I think I got my gauge pod only 6 months ago though. :)
