Well, I guess its time I come in here since I have a car with potential now. I picked up an 04 Cobra a little over a week ago and I am ready to become part of the posse. She is stock right now and only has 6900 miles. Im down to run anyone that thinks they will put up a good fight. Im sure you guys know where a stock cobra stands so we'll see what happens.

i wouldn't mind beating another cobra :D

[GirlieZ]

i know collins would be game

[Gutling]

Lol after seeing you on some of the svt forums I figured you were looking for one, gratz! You will love it

Stock Cobra > Modded 350Z?
hey retard read!.....COLLINS doesnt drive a Z, lol silly boy, a Z is a girls car.

and he has about 80 more hp then me and 600 more pounds of weight, so it wouldnt be extreme ownage IMO. not like i wanna run, i get like 8 mpg at full throttle and im poor so gas prices own me. :cry:

[Jason..]

We all can meet up down here if yall want to this weekend? It will be like the last meet i got a good spot.Pm me and let me know.Collins and gurlie Z know me. GurlieZ you know you wanna run!!!!

you have a 35r sir, go away :lmfao:

i wouldn't mind beating another cobra :D

Then you shouldn't have a problem running a GT then would ya? :D

[On_Her_Face]

how much powa?

[iloveboost]

hey retard read!.....COLLINS doesnt drive a Z, lol silly boy, a Z is a girls car.
Hey retard, you were saying your car is a high 12sec car and he had an open callout. I already know what collins drives. A tank with tires.


billy, we should do a 3 way... u, me, and the cobra. u get to be the camera car, cause ur the lightest.

lol daniel... reading comprehension > you :lmfao:
I said that so she could line up with him to compare her supposed 12sec 350Z against his 12sec Cobra instead of getting him to race your car.

[TS240]

you have a 35r sir, go away :lmfao:
What does a cobra run stock? mid to low 12s?

[On_Her_Face]

not sure

[TIGERJC]

Plz get it on vid

[TS240]

not sure
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080325221700AAD1ZWH
Looks like low 13's to mid 12's...

[Motivation]

2004 Cobra SVT= around 12.9 (what is stated on http://www.albeedigital.com)

[Gutling]

mid 12s maybe with a super good driver, mostly high 12s low 13s

[jumpin800agl]

Stock Cobra > Modded 350Z?
I will run.

[Maniac1]

Welcome to the cult, I would run you if I had enough miles on my gears. =(

[darkstar6069]

you have a 35r sir, go away :lmfao:
But I is on low b00st!!!

[On_Her_Face]

But I is on low b00st!!!

already lost to one on "low" boost

[Maniac1]

yo billy I doubt he's making as much as kevin, you should run it. :D

[On_Her_Face]

yo billy I doubt he's making as much as kevin, you should run it. :D


kevin didn't have the 35r, rudy did..

this guy is making 410 awhp i will pass

[Maniac1]

yea but you were talking about kevin when you mentioned running an evo on low boost. Right? LOL it's just for fun, who cares... I'd run him if I could.

[On_Her_Face]

yea but you were talking about kevin when you mentioned running an evo on low boost. Right? LOL it's just for fun, who cares... I'd run him if I could.

kevin was still running like 22psi and on a 20g just no meth

[Maniac1]

Ugh, I already knew all that! FUK! Nevermind then man, you're just not getting it. LOL

[On_Her_Face]

Ugh, I already knew all that! FUK! Nevermind then man, you're just not getting it. LOL

where are you located? i'll do it for laughs

[soul]

when an where? maybe can come out if im not working but thats highly doubtful sigh :(

[On_Her_Face]

idk, he hasn't responded yet.

[On_Her_Face]

wait soul, you're in gwinnett? if so we can run anytime cause i'm in gwinnett as well

[TS240]

idk, he hasn't responded yet.
I txted him for you. lol

[On_Her_Face]

he'd spank me, long time.

[TS240]

he'd spank me, long time.
With the boost turned down it might be close.:goodjob:

[On_Her_Face]

which would make it more fun, otherwise ill just honk 3 times, let him take off and save my gas

[darkstar6069]

No I agree I'll just run 15 psi or whatever my wastegate spring is, which is even better because I think that is 14 psi lol. Just PM me when and where. I'm in carrolton so somewhere halfway would be nice, but I'll be in Auburn all this weekend.

Shiit man, you would wax my ass.


What does a cobra run stock? mid to low 12s?
Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords ran a 12.43@113 in a bone stock cobra, but Im not even gonna bullshiit, I would be lucky to get in the twelves because 1) I just got the car, and 2)I dont have a lot of experience launching.


I will run.
What kind of power are you making?

which would make it more fun, otherwise ill just honk 3 times, let him take off and save my gas
LIRL!

[jumpin800agl]

What kind of power are you making?

6 psi: 344 whp DD
8.5 psi: 405whp/387tq DD

We should be close from a dig and also a roll. I have only made 2 passes on the turbos and got a 12.7@115. Just need more seat time though to bring it down. I ran a friend's lightly modded Cobra and he ran a 12.7 also.

[Dr.G35]

wouldnt happen to live at campus quad would you?

[khan351]

Im still down for a fun run so PM me !! Ill only run 15 psi

Hey man, let me know when this goes down..we still need to get a rematch...i finally got me a keeper that hopefully i wont get bored with too soon:crazy:

and a stock 04 can get into low 12's with a good driver...sh!tty irs ftl

[darkstar6069]

yes I live at campus quad!

Kahn I wanna race the 607whp mustang again!!! I think I should keep up with you this time!!! :)

Deisel I will run you on low boost if u want.

[DieselNuts]

6 psi: 344 whp DD
8.5 psi: 405whp/387tq DD

We should be close from a dig and also a roll. I have only made 2 passes on the turbos and got a 12.7@115. Just need more seat time though to bring it down. I ran a friend's lightly modded Cobra and he ran a 12.7 also.
What boost were you running on that pass? I think we would be damn close from a roll, but I have never launched this car so I think you would probably get me from a dig.


Deisel I will run you on low boost if u want.
What kind of power are you making on low boost?

[darkstar6069]

Maybe 360 whp. it's only 14 psi.

[DieselNuts]

Maybe 360 whp. it's only 14 psi.
that might be closer, but you would probably still get me. Im game though.

[khan351]

How about you on high boost and me on slicks (not in the black cobra:D)

[darkstar6069]

:ninja::ninja::ninja:





How about you on high boost and me on slicks (not in the black cobra:D)
Very sneaky you are! What might the slicks be on. and if it's what I think it is then how about me on Race gas and 30psi once I get the AEM installed by next weekend. Depending on the numbers I make we can go from there. :crazy:

Deisel PM me if you wanna run for fun.

8.5psi. We could run on both maps just to see the difference. The dig would probably still be close also.

[jumpin800agl]

Deisel PM me if you wanna run for fun.
PM me also diesel , maybe the 3 of us could get together.

[darkstar6069]

c'mon now, lets not nit-pick here... she's got an 03z (rated 287 at the flywheel) plus full bolt ons, cams, and a tune. still figuring out a blip at about 6500-6800rpm causing a little peak power to be lost, but the overall powerband is real nice. if i had to estimate her crank power right now i'd say its prolly somewhere between 315-330. when the tune is finalized she should be really close (within 5-10) to the 300whp mark. the car's stout.

but thats neither here nor there. she's not the one you'll be running. so back on topic. i just didnt want people getting things misconstrued.

I wasnt aware of the cams, but thats still a lot of power out of a n/a Z. Once she gets the blip taken care of, she should bring it out.

[1.8t]

i have an a4 noob


I never knew yours was an 05 model. Always thought you had an 06 for some reason.



darkstar6069, when you say Auburn are you referring to Auburn, Al or Auburn, Ga??? If its Auburn, Al....I would like a crack at your car. I ran my brothers old AMS 35R Evo back when I was stock and he got one car on me to 125mph or so. No point in going beyond that, the 5th gear on the Evo is retarded compared to 1 through 4.

I had a bolt on cam'ed Evo back in the day.....freaking cars are a blast and I would not drop what you have got for a Supra unless the Supra was in stellar condition(saw your post on Supraforums).

[collins]

I wasnt aware of the cams, but thats still a lot of power out of a n/a Z. Once she gets the blip taken care of, she should bring it out. lol well i thought twice about posting she had them, but i figured she's told enough ppl by now it wasnt really a secret anymore :ninja:

i'm sure she'll bring it out when we get it figured out. there's a shop in fla that had an issue similar to hers with another z, but she's kinda hesitant to drive all the way down there and spend close to a grand on gas, hotel, and tuning which i cant blame her at all for. i think it has to do with timing issues at different rpms... i dunno... we'll get it figured out and have some fun with it. its definalty peppy and strong in the midrange, but its just lacking a few up top. in time, sir... in time. good things only come with patience.

DOH!! lol you caught me. Well I'm going to Auburn University to hang out with some friends and for my girlfriends birthday since her best friend goes to school down there, but unfortunately I won't be driving my car. When I come back I am down for a run if you want. How much power was your brothers car making when you raced him?

[1.8t]

My girlfriend still goes to Auburn(I graduated 1 year ago in May from AU). I wasn't going to drive my Vette either, but if you were taking your ride, I was going to take her down. I much prefer racing in Alabama than here in Georiga, much less of a chance of being caught.

My brothers car was making 405awhp on pump gas, 93oct. My stock times were in crap DA air, which is why my trap speeds don't make sense with the outcome of our multiple races. My car is weird in the fact that the better my 60' is, the faster my trap speed is. Due of this characteristic, she rolls on much harder than my trap speeds indicate anyways.

BTW, depending on the numbers of my new setup, I would like a shot at you on 30psi/race gas/AEM too.:)

hmmm well I'm just a tad bit over what your brother was making so it should be a good race. Unless you are putting down close to 530whp I really don't want to fill up with race gas just to do it since it's kind of expensive

[1.8t]

Well, I was stock when I ran him when he was making 405awhp. I can only guess me being lighter and having a fat power curve was what made it so close because my car only dyno'ed 385whp/378wtq stock. My bolt on 11sec run below was in crappier air than my stock runs:(

I will be on pump gas with my new setup with no power adder.

Do you live in Auburn?

[darkstar6069]

no I live in carrolton. From the sounds of it, you will beat me on pump gas, but that's just guessing from your mph trap. any idea how much your car weighs?

[1.8t]

3200lbs. You have a better clutch, tranny, and the ability to rev past 8k that he didn't, so I am betting that will make us a close race :).

Edit: FWIW, I only make 416whp and 418wtq with my bolt ons. We will be a good run:cheers:

[darkstar6069]

Sounds good PM me when and where

[DieselNuts]

Edit: FWIW, I only make 416whp and 418wtq with my bolt ons. We will be a good run:cheers:
wow, I/H/E + tune only gained you ~30hp? That doesnt seem right. I mean, you have the proof, I'm just sayin, that seems low to me.

[NoRotor]

wow, I/H/E + tune only gained you ~30hp? That doesnt seem right. I mean, you have the proof, I'm just sayin, that seems low to me.
It wasn't H.
It was just I/E + tune. Stock LS3 heads are aleady pretty damn beastly.

[1.8t]

wow, I/H/E + tune only gained you ~30hp? That doesnt seem right. I mean, you have the proof, I'm just sayin, that seems low to me.

Intake, headers, and an exhaust gave me 31whp and 40wtq(which is average from what I have seen). From that 31whp and 40wtq, I picked up 5mph in the 1/4 mile in a 660' worse DA day than my stock times. I would expect my car to put down some 11.80's @ 122ish on a slightly negative DA day.

Gotcha. The 5mph is a nice gain, but i just thought you would see more power out of that. I'm no LSx follower though so I dont know the facts. Thats a nice TQ gain too. Either way, you are still faster than me :doh: :cheers:

[1.8t]

Unless you are putting down close to 530whp I really don't want to fill up with race gas just to do it since it's kind of expensive

We will see how the first race goes so we can get an idea how I will do with my new setup.:cheers: BTW, you only need to put in a couple of gallons;). You can drain all of the pump gas from the bottom of the tank by removing the drain bolt.

[jumpin800agl]

this should be a fun time since we are all relatively close in power. Darkstar we should be fairly close on high boost since you are around 410 whp.

[1.8t]

Jump in the PM ring. Darkstar and I are trying to set something up, you should come out as well. My car goes under the knife April 28th so we all need to meet up before then.

[jumpin800agl]

yeah just PM me with details on when and where. Weeknights are normally bad for me, but may can work around it.

[darkstar6069]

well guys, my car probably wont be available for thrashing this weekend... just had to admit her to the stealership for some warranty work... might take a while...

[DieselNuts]

aww, that sucks. What are you having done?

[collins]

my ignition cylinder locked up. they might have to order the part from australia. they're paying for it all tho, including my rental car, so hopefully they wont drag their feet with it. thank god for a cool dealership that let me keep my warranty :D

See if they have any vettes for the rental and you can still make it out!!!:D

[collins]

lol tried that... hell, they wouldnt even give me a NON turbo solstice!!! WTF!?


however.... darkstar, if they let me upgrade to a truck, i'll race you offroad! :taun:

[1.8t]

I didn't even know they gave out loaners. Interesting

WHAT DEALERSHIP DID YOU TAKE IT TO? SORRY FOR THE CAPS, THIS IS HOW I TYPE @ WORK...

[SicStang03]

Collins and Diesel will be a good run...

Also,a stock cobra at Commerce with street tires will have one hell of a time getting into the 12's.. That track sux asssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.

Deisel.. get an IRS brace before you start racing..

[collins]

I didn't even know they gave out loaners. Interesting

technically, its not a "loaner"... its a rental through enterprise rent-a-car that they happen to be paying for, so my options are limited... the "'coolest" thing they have that i can get would be a 4 door silverado, which is what i'm shooting for.

yeah, I hear that. Does anyone know if it has improved since they have resurfaced the staging area?

Yeah, I def. plan on getting a brace before I ever launch.

[collins]

hey btw, since you dont wanna launch it, i'm assuming you dont wanna do a dig... what roll are you looking for? if you DO wanna do a dig, i'm game for that too.

[DieselNuts]

shiit man, it really doesnt matter. I just know I spin pretty bad comming out of first. Even if we are going from a 10mph roll, thats cool. I just dont want the rear end taking the initial shock of a launch.

If you hop at all the rear end is going to leak.. I wouldn't do anything under a 40 roll untill you get a brace...

I haven't been to Commerce this year yet but I went last year when I had intake and exhaust and ran a 13.6 :lmfao:... Granted I also learned how to drive stick on this car and IRS is a pain to launch on street tires. Next time I go I hope to be well into the 12's... maybe 11's:ninja:

Although there was a guy with a KB 2.2 that couldn't get past 12.2 and he was right at 600rwhp on DRs

Your launch technique has a lot do with the survival of your rear end. I do an initial engagement before a quick release to take the shock out of the d/t as much as possible. When you do it right, it will keep you from hopping and still let you cut excellent 60's.

Diesel and Collins, would you guys want to jump into this little meet w/ me, darkstar, and jumpin as well?

[SicStang03]

PM me details.. If I am not working I may come..

Also, they guys who went to AU, were you in any Fraternity's? I was there for 1.5 years

[DieselNuts]

Yeah, Im game.

Terminator Cobras are notorious for horrible wheel hop. I hear that the tires are a big culprit of the problem. I plan on doing all the remidies to get rid of the wheel hop but I want to keep the IRS because I didnt buy the car just to go in a straight line.

Don't waste your time or money doing anything but springs/tires/FLSFC's... The bushings help but the are expensive as ****.. Not to mention the install is a huge PITA.. As long as you have a sticky tire it's all good

[DieselNuts]

those are first on my list of suspension related mods. I want to get caster/camber plates before I install springs though.

Do them at the same time.. You have to drop everything anyways and it just goes back in. You have to drill a 13/32" hole on the strut tower though.. It's easy besides that

Darkstar, clear your pm's.

you need to talk to damon on here and streetcar. he has boltons for the rear and running very low 11's and should be bumpin 10's before long and he's still irs. if vettes and supras can do it, you can too :goodjob: :2cents:

even though i will admit it is alot easier and alot less trial and error on a straight axle!! :D

I've seen '03-'04 Cobras run mid 9's with IRS... it'll take a little more power (turbo), but it can be done. There are groups that shun on guys who put live axles in their cobras.... kinda funny, but it takes a little practice... a bushing kit really helps as well. Check out svtperformance.com's tech threads. I'm sure you can dig up some info there...

[khan351]

i have personally ran high 10's before on the irs. with a good set of tires and decent susp. work, you should be set!

[collins]

i've heard rain this weekend... maybe next?

[khan351]

i'll be busy this weekend, im game for next weekend as long as the weather permits

Oh, I know it can be done with the IRS, it just cant be done safely with the stock IRS. It would be a lot easier to just slap a straight axle in there, but I didnt buy the car just to go fast in a straight line. I want the suspension to be as curve worthy as possible. I've been over @ SVTP for quite some time and I have read up on "the red pill" and it is FULL of information to better the IRS. I plan on doing as many as I can over time.

well we're waiting on more parts for the goat... seems they cant get the key cylinder out with out being able to turn it, so they're ordering a whole new steering rack so she'll be down for at least 4-5 more business days.... the GOOD news is that i'm getting out if this sh!tty little g6. they found me a truck, so if anyone wants to run offroad, let me know! :D lol
