After about a month and a half of working out the details, I finished my Terminator swap! Check it out...
Here is my car and the motor I started with
and after all the work I ended up with this!
but its connected to THIS!
I found this car last month locally on Craigslist, and it instantly got my attention. "38,000 miles, no mods other than exhaust". Before I even called the owner I started asking around at work trying to sell my 97. As much work as I put into my 97 and as nice as it was (I sold it with 40,500 miles), selling it was the only way I could get into the Cobra comfortably. After a few bites I realized things were getting serious, and I called the owner of the Cobra and we arranged a met up. Turns out when he bought the car he was also looking for a low mileage, unmodified, and cared for car. He took great care of it, and it spent most of its time in the garage. After seeing it and going for a drive, I knew I had to have it, it was perfect, and it was white too! (in 04 white was the fewest color after Screaming Yellow and Competition Orange) Well long story short, I found a buyer for my 97 last week, and this past Friday we finished the deal on the Cobra. It is bone stock with the exception of a Bassani X and Borla Stinger exhaust setup. It also came with a Diablo Tuner. The previous owner had plans for a pulley swap, so he bought the tuner, but never got around to the pulley.
I know its not an SN95, but I plan on staying around this forum. I've been here a while and there are some cool people with some really cool cars here. But I do need to find a more Terminator specific place to learn about things though. Any suggestions? I found the SVT Performance one and did a little bit of browsing. Other than the obvious, I've started noticing all the subtle changes in body styles and need to further educate myself now! Anyway, one more pic for good measure.
