    2003 Cobra - new pics

    This thing has been hiding in the garage for too long. I'm finally caught up with my 'deferred maintenance'



















    Tried to replicate some of the ones I took with the Shelby in the same spot. I really need to bring my tripod along for these night shoots

    No, Chatsworth and Santa Clarita as of late.

    Ah, i've been seeing one that looks pretty similar to yours driving around Simi.

    Hey you wanna trade the 03 for an 03 G35? I'll even throw in lunch! (at taco bell)

    Loved my FRPP FR500s, but wanted something wider in the back. Of course with 295s they're still not right, but close for now.

    Went through some canyons today on the way to a hike. Kept hearing a scrape from the front, thought it might be my left tire on the inner fender. Looks like it was the plastic lip on the bumper.

    Guess I need to raise the front a little more, or slap stiffer springs on it. :?

    Your front end does look a bit low. Maybe bring it up another 1/2 inch or so. You are running coil overs, if I remember right?

    Yes sir. 375/575 springs with the Maximum sport valved Bilstiens.

    I raised it up a little bit last weekend. I changed the spacer arrangement to allow the front more bump travel, and it dropped it down too low. It rides a lot nicer with the spacer change though.

    I need to get it aligned by a good shop, and have them set the height. Want to maybe do a few more things to the suspension first then get it all dialed in.
