Hey everyone, just wondering if anyone has put springs on there car yet or if you intend to which one's do you like? On my 2K GT i have now i have the Eibach Pro-kit but not sure about the IRS of the cobra and which springs work well with that etc. Anyone have any suggestions?

Im am actually really happy with how my 03 handles, so i dont htink im going to do a spring swap. Id like to drop the back to match the front, so ill prolly just end up removing 1/2 a coil or so from the rear. The cars already have 600 lb springs ( at least for the coupes), so i dont want to change the spring rate very much.
I put on the H&R springs for 99-up Cobra. Lowered car exactly 1.5" all the way around.
Kevin, your car looks fantastic! Makes me wish I would have ordered Mineral Grey instead of black :whine: I was thinking about the H&R springs, I put them on the '92 and the ride/handling was pretty decent.
Do you have any sound files of the Bassani exhaust? That's on my list of things to do once I find a job....... I have to worry about making the first payment on this car at the moment

Hey Shelley,
you crack me up. Your always finding a way to get a hot new car along with the job challenge too.
No sound files at the moment.

What is stock? That word is not in my vocabulary.
I too, am considering replacing the factory springs. I don't like the ride height. I wish it was a little lower like my Saleen. The handling is great, I just wish the car sat a little lower.
Hey MS KWIK, you must be on disability to afford the '03 without a job. For info, what is your payment and have you had any of the problems discussed on the forum?, pulling to the right, vibrations etc.?
Hehe, I'm doing misc. consulting work (computer stuff) until I find a permanent, full time job. Luckily it's enough to pay the rent and the car, I'm not losing this car, I love it!
In fact, tonight on the way home from the dealer (after they replaced the switch in the clutch pedal for the starting problem) I noticed the car pulling to the right I'll just wait until the springs are installed, because the car will need an alignment after that anyway. I don't feel like going back to the dealer again right now :cuss:

You'll need a 4 wheel alignment on the car too after you lower it. The rears need adjusting too.
Are you MS KWIK with the 99 -S351 Saleen? in black? just curious, because i seen your SN along time ago, and that SN was a lady that had that particular vehicle!
that would be her!
Yep, that's me, LOL. I had to sell the S351 earlier this year, I couldn't afford to make the payments on it any longer I think the '03 Cobra is just as awesome, even though it's not as flashy as the Saleen. At least it comes with a better warranty
One day I would LOVE to own a '96 Mystic Cobra and a '93 black Cobra
