This was my wife's 96 Cobra. It had H&R springs on it. Though I can not honestly tell you which ones because they didnt have a reference number on them. I was originally told that they were Steeda springs by the previous owner. But he turned out to be an idiot and didnt know what he had on the car. The springs were red in color,.. and Steeda did not make any springs red in color. The options were Eibach Sportlines or H&R. Eibach has serial numbers on their springs,.. so that left H&R.

What ever they were,. they were absolutely fantastic springs on this carr. Dare I say,.. the car handled like a Vette. You could go into a turn at double what ever the posted speed limit was and the car held like glue. The only down side was that driveway,. like the bank and even the damn car wash cause the mid pipes to scrape,.. grocery store speed bumps were avoided at all costs. Or if unavoidable,.. would be taken at an angle,. and very slow.

This was the car the first week we had her. This is as slammed as you can get with out it dragging the asphault. You could not get a floor jack under the car with out riding up on ramps or using the scissor jack to lift the car up enough to get the floor jack under there. even had to be lifted to get the arms of the lift under the car.



This was her after we got new wheels. Removed all of the Steeda stickers, new struts and shocks, new ceramic brakes, new front rotors. The main focus of this car was handling and street maners. Thats what Lady Hurst wanted. And this car met all of those needs with style. Plus had plenty of go to match.


After we get her Tiburon paid off we will be in the market for a 94/95 Cobra white or black,.. but must have the all black deluxe leather interior. No cloth,.. and no black/tan multicolored shit. Want to do another one,.. but staying away from the 4.6 for a while. The 302 is soooo much nicer to work on in the engine bay.
