So sitting here and iced in and realized I never updated this. On the day before the tune I snapped the trans cable and had to cancel. After figuring out the cause of the breakage I got everything repaired and squared away. Well after that everything got busy and the car sat in the garage with the base tune, only leaving once for an alignment and another time for a quick trip to the gas station. Im hoping to get a date in the spring for a tune since the girl friend keeps bugging me to get it out. Anyway here are a couple pics and sound clip from this past fall.

Ok, bringing this thread back to life. This poor car has been on the back burner for a while since I became unbelievable busy. So I finally think im going to be able to enjoy her this summer. Car goes off to a friends shop to adjust a few things that came up and then, hope and pray, it goes to the tuners! Plus im throwing some NT05's on the spare 98 cobra's.

Got them mounted today, but not on the car just yet. Grabbed a couple pics to show how 255's fit on a 17x8 wheel.
(excuse my dog, he likes the attention )

He really is my little buddy. He rides in the car and sleeps in the bed, first dog I had a personal bond with. Put it this way, if I grill chicken, he gets a piece lol!
