Guess this would fall under performance...has anyone ever seen this car?
 
this is a 900hp cobra kit car I went for a spin in during the summer...the car is custom made...twin turbo...water injection cooled(er sumthin) the rims are 17" cut in half and welded together (basically 1.5 of a rim) this car has a hydraulic jack hwere he hits a button and it lifts the car in the air. oh yeah and it apparently is one of the only cobras...with air conditioning

if you look in the interior shot, notice where the cd player is...kinda stuffy in there...as well you can't see the turbos as they are packed inside the side of the engine...all custom designed by one person....the same guy is also doing a custom turbo build up on the owner of Paradigm Speakers GMC Typhoon

I want auto jacks ha ha.
I love Cobras

Dr.K 21-May-2005 12:03 PM

I like CObra's as well. But i always hated how the shifter sat since the drivetrain sits so far back in the car.Alas, The only kit cars worth building are Cobra's and GT40's. If done right they are almost unbeatable.

Thats a sweet ride.

imported_climax 21-May-2005 05:42 PM

theres a mechcanic shop by more work.. he builds cobras.. not sure if there these ones.. you have to order it and wait 6 months for it.. apprantly hes one of 2 licenced mechcanics to build them.. but i think they come right from shelby or something.. i dont know...

nice...

Dr.K 22-May-2005 01:57 PM

Shelby wants WAAAY too much money for his genuine replica's. Not to mention he's an *******. I love Cobra kit car's because they piss him off royally.

imported_91SiRacer 22-May-2005 02:41 PM

Simply beautiful, always been a Cobra fan.:thumbup:

Sweeeeeeeet!

I don't know if I would trust 900 HP being sent to the gound through wheels that have been chopped in half and welded back together.

Your funny! LOL


I've seen a car like that in st kitts last summer, probably a different car, but the one i saw sounded mean.

imported_viper 02-Jul-2005 12:46 PM

just found out that the first baseline dyno test was done on this car...de tuned it hit 400tq at the wheels at 1800rpm...and 780whp at 5000 rpm...with a collapsed fuel line and very poor injectors...he has to upgrade the injectors to put out more hp...as well as the fuel pump which he made himself...
