hey everyone, new member here from Atlanta, GA. Just picked up a beautiful white 98 Cobra. It was a customer of mine and when I found out he wanted to sell it, I hoped right on it. The car has mostly suspension stuff done to it with the engine mods being a crummy intake and a full exhaust (no cats w/ H pipe). I've had the car for 3 days and I've already begun the "modding" lol. Fog light mod switch was done asap, LED white tag lights and I ordered oem style clear corners since one of my was cracked and leaking. If anyone knows where to get a BBK intake feel free to give it's location away. :) Can you guys check the picture with the brake rotor...does anyone notice that 20% of the rotor isn't being used? It's like some1 put a much larger rotor on but not a caliper to match...weird. Anyways, here's some pics of her.

Plans: paint the mirrors white, find a white gas cap, 99+ center console area conversion so I can use a 2x din, BBK intake, Accufab TB and a Kenne Bell by summers time.

Nice Cobra! I would get another set of stock corner lights they look so much better than clear corners IMO, and the brakes are fine im pretty sure mine used to be just like that on my new edge. And also you should keep that fuel door and just get it painted white and leave the stainless bolts to accent the rims, btw those RK's are sexy! LOL!

welcome to the site!

and why is it that you are selling your r6? do you plan on keeping the gsxr?
id be a terrible mistake to keep a gsxr over an r6.

Beautiful cobra... I have always been a fan of white and those silver BBS just set it off perfect. I love it.

Hahaha thanks guys! Beautiful cars in your sigs!!! I'm not doing that Euro turn signal crap but the oem clear so it'll have the original look but clear (only cus the car is white). Thanks for all the input! I don't feel comfortable on the R6. I feel so high up and I love the way I'm in a "pocket" type seating position on the gsxr. I feel more comfortable and can really hang off and push it.

I just met a 96 cobra owner and he told me something about...I'm going to get this wrong, an IRMC delete? Something to do with under the intake manifold? Anyone heard anything like this?

Cc's95gt- it's a bit far for you but ill be at commerce Friday night with some friends with Chevys. Gotta see if I can hold my own against them.
