Q: buying used Mustang Cobra, help?
I am buying a 1997 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra Coupe with the engine from a 04 Cobra. What problams should i look for when i inspect the car? are there any problams that are commen with this car? thancks for your help.

A: quite a few mustangs have swapped in the cobra (terminator) engine, because it is so very strong and likely one of the best engines ford has produced in terms of quality of internal components, and overall performance.

this can be an excellent purchase, and because the engines stand up to a lot of hard driving they are quite dependable.

as answerer Vipassan said have a pro shop ck it out…..
do a full ck including compression test.
basic questions:
-engine swap accompanied by swap of the t-56 6 sp transmission? and was the transmission upgraded to stronger spline??
-what clutch is the car running
-is it running stock supercharger, or has it been replaced and with what??
-what other installations have been done on this car to manage the power from the cobra engine??
-has the car had a custom tune of the engine (if so talk to that shop)

lastly MAKE SURE to see build identification to confirm it is a cobra engine! (lots of clones out there).

this can be a 1st rate car, if all cks out.

when you have time get on http://www.svtperformance.com/
its an owners forum for performance mustangs, register and then get onto the forum for 03/04 terminators (and look for “terminator talk”)
there is very extensive FAQ available there that will basically answer every question you might have about the terminator engine.

any other questions….the guys at svt will quickly help you out……

i wont need all the crap you listed to go to open track days i just need a helmet because its street cars vs street cars

A: ^^^ don’t listen to him^^^

hes never heard of street race Thursdays at the track… i love RWD Nissan and when you discover the sport of drifting, you’ll drop your love of fords and try to find anything RWD and LIGHT… Out of that list id suggest the 300zx…

But off that list id suggest a early model 1989-1993 240sx… They are reliable a fun cars to drive… the aftermarket possibilities are endless and if you buy a 240sx shell for $500 and put in a blacktop SR20DET for $3000 and throw in some coil overs and rims/tires for $2000… you’d have a fully built dirft car ready to drag and youll be the happiest kid with the fastest drift/drag car:)

Q: Ford Cobra or Infiniti G35?
I have a decision to make and I just wanted opinions of everyone on here….
1999 Ford Mustang Cobra SVT (non supercharged)
or
2004 Infiniti G35 Sports Coupe

both have very similar gas mileage, both are almost even quarter mile and 0-60 times, pretty much everything is similar which is why I am asking.

The Cobra is around 10,000
while the infiniti is around 20,000
insurance prices are very similar
I also should probably add this is going to be my first manual transmission car, what would you say?
opinions??????

A: no question– the Infiniti!! much better reliability, and it’s 5 years newer than the Ford. i hope you already know how to drive a manual. if not, you should learn on a cheaper/less nice car before you thrash your new Infiniti’s transmission. ;-)
