That cluster is awesome, and good job finding one that is completely working (I've heard the dig. gauges can be like the HUD on the s13s... sometimes it works, but more often they don't). Clean car overall.. can't wait to see what you do with it!

98+ Cobra rims at that.


Those were actually my favorite for my bodystyle....little more definition than the Cobra R's

300zx had some awesome options for the time, i dunno what it was called but some would tell you left the door open

Good buy. I prefer the 2-seaters, but Z31's are very fun to drive.

(RB25 swap FTW)

Because the stock wheels are really ugly. and i had cobra wheels layin around, so i put them on. but i want some 18s off a 350

Yup. mine has that option! it says "left door open" "right door open" "lights are on" and prolly other stuff. its wicked. and the accelerometer. haha thats nutz. and what i found to be weiredset, just cause the car is 22 yrs old, is it has radio controls in the steering wheel.

Those wheels are the 98 cobra R's. The others you refer to are the 95 Cobra R's. Just stating that both are "Cobra R" wheels, just different years :goodjob:

ACTUALLY....you are mistaken.


There are only TWO wheels known as "COBRA R" wheels.

those would be the 1995 Cobra R wheels and the 2000 Cobra R wheels, because both were factory equipped on COBRA R model Cobra's, hence the designation.

in 1998 when those COBRA wheels were introduced, they are only designated as 1998 COBRA WHEELS, not R's.

I know this because I was in the Mustang game for quite sometime, and even had 95 R's, 00 R's, and the 98 Cobra wheels on my Mustang.
95 Cobra R's had a 9"width and the 00 Cobra R's had a width of 9.5, and the 1998 Cobra Wheel is only 8" width.

thanks for playing.

don't believe me? check any mustang forum, or just for giggles, check out www.gefracing.com that sells OE Ford Racing/SVT products.
