All 93 cobra owners in here, need help.

[red04svtcobra]

I am set out to do a project and would like for anyone that has a 93 cobra to please post up a few of your best pics including interior shots, engine shots, or any other shot that might be nice. All pics must be stock appering with no mods that are visual. Please do not send in pics of your car in the driveway. I am looking for a nice clean shot with the least distractions. I would like all colors too, which are Black, Red, and Teal. Thanks, Chris

No stock here!

Very nice cobra and shots but I am needing one with no visual mods done at all. I am needing a stock looking engine, interior (I need one without a tack, roll bar, shifter, gauges, etc.), and exterior with nothing done (stock stance, hood, rims, tint, etc). If you have any mods done and can not be seen in the pics then I can use them. FST ORNG, I could have used pics 6, 8, and 9 if the cage, gauges, and aftermarket radio weren't in the shot. Do you have anymore without these mods done?

I think I can use the engine shot, thanks. I agree with you that stock is boring but, I am making a identification sheet for the 93 model cobra and I need some stock pics so people can see what they look like stock and can see what was changed from year to year.

93 Cobra Differences

---

Absolutely no 93 Cobra convertables made.

There were 4993 Cobras and 107 Cobra R's produced in 1993 for a total of 5100.

1FACP42D... is how the VIN should read. No Cobra came with cruise control. Only 5 options were available - PWR drivers seat, leather, CD, Rear window defrost, and Sunroof. Engine block heater, CA emissions, High Altitude principle use, and million mile odometer were also available, but don't show up on the door tag, buck tag, or VIN.

• Unique 17x7.5 turbine style wheels (unique offset - 93 Cobra is 3/4" wider per side with unique front rotors with taller hats)
• Opened up grill area with running horse insert
• Unique rear bumper, side skirts and grill opening
• Rear disc brakes
• Snake emblems on fenders should be non-directional (DS faces to the back, passenger side faces to the front, unique to 93 Cobras)
• LX style tailpipes
• SVO style tail lights
• Unique rear spoiler
• GT40 Iron heads (3 "bars" should be visible on front of head, "GT" cast into head under valve cover
• Black stamped steel valve covers (94-95 Cobra valve covers have "Cobra" embossed into them).
• Crane 1.7 roller rockers, cast aluminum
• Available in 3 colors only: Teal metallic, Vibrant Red (kinda orange red), Black
• 70mm MAF
• 65mm throttle body
• Cobra (cast GT40) upper and lower intake
• Unique mufflers and tailpipes (extended hangers on LX style tailpipes)
• Smaller front sway bar - 28.5mm as compared to the larger 33mm unit used on the GT, the rear bar measured 21mm
• 4 cylinder rear springs and regular 5.0 front springs. The front springs were 425/530 lbs./in progressive rate, while the rear springs had a linear rating of 160 lb./in versus a progressive 200/300 lb./in. rate used on the GT.
• Unique struts and shocks (Tokico was the OEM supplier)
• Unique cam (Used in 93 t birds and cougars, 94-95 Australian falcons)
• Unique EEC (X3Z catch code)
• 24# injectors
• 1" bore master cylinder
• Larger brake booster
• Unique tranny (World Class T5) - phosphate coated 2nd and 3rd gears, steel pocket bearing retainer
• Stock 5.0 fuel pump
• Hardened driveshaft yoke
• Unique brake proportioning valve
• Non cruise leather wrapped steering wheel
• Lettered floormats
• Unique crank and water pump pulleys (underdriven crank, overdriven WP)
• 3:08 ring and pinion
• Higher-rate bushings at the forward end of the rear upper control arms

Exterior Colors: Teal Clearcoat, Vibrant Red Clearcoat, Black Clearcoat
Interior Colors: Black Cloth, Grey Cloth, Grey Leather

The biggest and easiest indicator is the VIN number. If you are looking at a convertible, then it is definitely not a Cobra.

I was going to but I would rather try and use a members car instead, if possible. Thanks

[red04svtcobra]

Thanks, I am going to be supplied with all that info later, but what I am looking for at the moment is stock pics. Thanks for your input and all and just reading that list has taught me alot about the 93 cobra.
Anyone else have anymore pics?

[red04svtcobra]

Is that all stock? If so do you mind if I use your pic if that what I chose? Do you have any interior shots too?
FST ORNG, do you mind if I use your engine shot if thats the one I chose?

[FST ORNG]

I dont care.
