Cobra question...


im faster

Recommended Posts

lol my bad.. i just had no clue... ive never been a ford fan.. just looking into something differnt..

 

are they worth a getting?

 

I mean yes and no, heads and cam are different from the GT but they both suck. The front bumper and hood are the only real differences, so you could get a GT if wanted one slightly cheaper.

94/95 cobras are not too common. as stated, they have slightly better flowing heads and cam, better intake, and throttle body. if you're keeping the car stock, and find a clean cobra at low cost, probably worth it. they were advertised at 235 hp if i recall, but most should make at least 285 at the flywheel. if you just like that body style, get a mustang GT as stated, because you will have a much larger selection and the car will be much cheaper.

 

avoid '96-98 mustang GT's, unless they've received heads/cam--these were the slowest stangs since '84. '96-'98 cobras, on the other hand, are completely different--they feature a high revving (for the time) 4.6 liter, DOHC motor with 305hp. blown cobras were only offered from '03-04.

Thanks.. well the cobra i was looking at is a little rough.. needs a side skirt repaired..

has a battery drain problem..

needs tires..

and exhaust..

 

 

if i could get it for 1000-1300 i might get it.. you think its worth it?

 

if it isnt rusted to shit sounds like a ok deal then freshen up the motor and get this

94-95 had the same hood as a GT.

 

Well she wonty take less than 2500 she says..

 

ill pass on that one.. if the price comes down a lot ill consider it..

 

Depending on the condition, it's probably worth it...

 

 

Bumper, spoiler, headlights, and wheels (17X8 with 255 GS-C tires) were the main exterior differences.

Bigger brakes (13" front/11.65" rear), different springs, shocks, sway bars, etc.

White face 160mph gauges, steering wheel cover, and a few minor things interior wise.

GT40 heads/intake, 1.71RR, 65mm throttle body, 24lb. injectors, electric fan, pulleys, T5 had phosphate coated gears, etc. rated at 240hp.

 

Coupes:

1994 there were 5009 built.

1995 there were 4255 built.

Best way to tell the difference between a 94 and a 95 is look at the side skirt behind the front tire. The 94's were straight while the 95's had a riser side skirt like the one pictured.

I learned something new today. Thx

 

Also, one differance on the 96-98. the 98's have a clock that sticks up out of the center of the dash.

It's the other way. All had the clock except '98, they removed it for '98+ models. '98 was also the first year of the cup holders in the console instead of the change flap and fold out holder.
