Well guys, i am about to start hunting around online in getting my snake ready for another power upgrade, but really besides amazon i really am not sure who else is good to deal with for parts.

So if youve bought parts from someone online and had a good experience, please post up their web address and give us an idea what you bought.

I think this could be a very useful thread if we get alot of people to post up different places where they have shopped, so guys like me that still are looking for alot of upgrade parts have lots of places to check out and compare!

So if you could please help out, post up some links and give us some ideas on who is good, and who to stay away from in the 03-04 Cobra Aftermarket community!!!!

Thanks in advance for your help fellas!! :banana:

don't worry Doug, you will definately be hearing from me in the future :)

But this is a good opportunity for all the vendors on the site to chime in, if another board member doesnt mention them already.

There have been several times i have read a post by some member saying "i just got so and so and it rocks!!" then they ramble off some shop name of where they bought it and im left scratching my head where to go online to find the parts.

This thread is to try and get as many 03-04 cobra aftermarket parts links as possible :)

Maybe if we get enough responses a mod can make this a sticky?

I think it would be very useful for alot of guys that are on here that may not post as much, but are still interested in upgrading their snakes!


Oh and one other thing, I bought a 4 piece Idler set and pulley puller from BilletFlow, and the service and quality of the parts is top notch!!!! I highly recommend buying parts from Doug if youre in the market for them !! :rockon:

You're probably going to run into problems with links to non-supporting vendors, but I will throw in my two cents..


I'm only posting links to vendors I've been happy with and felt they had good customer service..


http://modularmustangracing.com/
(mcleod twin disk probably the best price you'll find, injector harnesses, autometer boost gauge)

http://www.jegs.com
(borla catback, MT et street radials)


http://www.xmsengineering.com/
(K&N FIPK)

http://www.ddperformance.com/
(26 spline which I have not broken yet)

Best place to buy Gatorback Goodyear belt, NGK TR6, and Nitto 555R Drag Radials for the cheapest?


items 1 and 2.. local parts store


item 3, I would consider the MT et street radials over the nittos.. jegs pretty much has the best price on them. If your heart is set on nittos, I would try tirerack.com

The MT ET streets will be good on the streets as well? I thought that was a full out for drag racing cause it has absolutely no tread on it at all just smooth surface but it works on the streets? I was thinking Nitto's for the streets and the ET streets for the tracks.

ET street radials are radials comparable to Nittos and BFG's.. plain ET streets are definitely a full slick that probably wouldnt be great on the street.


I've got about 1000 miles on my ET street radials so far and they seem to have no noticable tread wear.
