    Default Realistic dream goals for your current car?

    Curious what everybody wants done to their car.

    What sort of goals do you have in mind? Street car/Race car/Strip/Track? Which one?

    Power goals?

    Also what sort of mods would you want done to the car?

    For me I want it to be a fun street car/weekend warrior (track or quarter mile)

    Goals for the car (2003 Cobra)

    Aluminator long block
    Stage 2 Macleoud clutch
    Short shifter
    Full suspension works
    Lightened interior
    Wheels n tires
    Power goals (550hp-600)

    Just something I can think at the top of my head right now.

    Lets see what you guys got!

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    Time to feed it the wallet and make some serious power

    I guess the major things performance wise I would like:

    3.5l Stroker(2nd gen crank, forged internals etc, but I'll probably settle for a built 3.0l and call it a day)

    DR-1000's(Not 100pct sure what I want for turbos, I might say to hell with an expensive ass stroker, get a engine with the forged internals, 2nd gen stuff and go with bolt on DR-750's or a pair of TD04 MHI 16G's, leaning more towards DR-750's, since the don't require any manifold swapping etc, but they cost as much if not more than a 16G kit, but are probably the best bolt on turbo out there)

    Mountain of supporting mods such as the Split Second ARC-2 Fuel Computer / MAF & Intake Kit etc.

    Swap the 18 spline transfer case out for the 25spline tc with 25spline output shaft etc.

    6 Speed swap?

    Upgrade Swaybars, install Suspension bushing kit.

    ABS Delete

    AWS Delete

    Battery Relocate

    Maybe a front end conversion to either 2nd gen 3000gt or the 2ng gen Stealth to accommodate a front mount, haven't really decided, don't want to cut up 1st gen bumper for one. maybe upgrade sidemounts)

    Black interior out of a 99 VR-4, replace worn to ass seat covers.

    Widebody fenders? Rolled and Pulled fenders? Don't really want to get new wheels because I got some rubba pokin out the back, I like my FN01R-C's

    Replace/Paint certain trim pieces

    Repaint car including engine bay.

    Underbody coating

    Powdercoat brake calipers or upgrade brakes.

    Powdercoat various suspension

    Blue LED kit to replace factory interior lighting(So my shit matches my gauges and deck)

    96 Stealth wing

    Rear wiper delete

    Probably a few other things I'd like to do hrrrmmm.


    EDIT: IPS Quad Tip Exhaust, I'd like to hear it in person though

    not much is being done on mine.

    I'm hoping for this.

    FK coilovers
    Rolled fenders
    Borbet's (16x9) w/tires
    Roll fenders
    Tint

    Make engine reliable or somehow swap in a vr6 (this is a bit of a long shot but still possible)

    FC 13b turbo goal is to break 500 rwhp on just pump gas. Its been there before boost wise, just not dyno verified.
    FC 20b 400 rwhp N/A, weigh no more than 2200 lbs and fit a something like a 315 in the rear wheel well and 275's up front.
    FD, 550 on pump gas and zero lag is the goal
    FC 13b N/A break 250 rwhp with a new exhaust design.
