Re: The "What did you do to the Mach this winter" thread!

Let's see, I have a laundry list of goodies underway:

Built/forged lower end with 10.0 compression Mahle pistons and Manley rods with ARP2000 rod bolts
Reworked heads with CNC port job and new springs
ARP head studs
MMR timing chain adjusters
Whipple 3.4L supercharger
Accufab single blade TB
ID 1000 fuel injectors
CP-E Triple fuel hat
Twin 465 Walbro pumps
Fore return fuel system with new rails, regulator, FC3 controller, PTFE lines, yada, yada, yada
Switching from the T56 to a built 4R75w including a custom VB, custom torque convertor, B&M Hammer shifter, and Baumann Quick4 controller
Replaced the manual transmission tunnel with an automatic tunnel
Big Dawg transmission cooler
Redesigned the coolant system to remove the stock overflow tank and thermostat housing with the On3 setup
Maximum Motorsports remote oil filter setup
Maximum Motorsports K member and A arms
Full compliment of Autometer gauges
Brembo 6 piston front brake setup with SS brake lines
Rear seat delete
AC delete
Lots of rewiring
And a few other little things to purchase like a new front bumper, windshield, fog lamps, and headlights

I am also considering a new set of wheels and a set of light weight seats for the front, upgraded timing chain studs, and maybe an electric water pump. I know I will need a cage the first time I hit the track.

My garage is a wreck and I can't wait to get it all back together! Once all of that is done, I need to replenish the savings account because the plans for next winter are switching to the 6lb lower pulley(jump boost from 23 to 28) and installing nitrous and maybe a meth injection setup.

Yes, this is a street car...for now.

No issues tho as battery was pretty new.

What color LEDs are those? I did the lighter blue or 'cool white' in mine but that blue looks looks like it would match my boost and wideband better...

3V looks good!

I'm like ^this as well. Mine had bullitt wheels on it instead of the OEM Mach wheels when I bought her. I had to daily drive her for a few years, so she has close to 61k miles now. It also had these horrid aftermarket tail lights on them that looked like they came off a Civic. Yuk! The previous owner also had bought a cold air intake that removed the connection to the shaker. Fortunately he kept the stock shaker intake parts. I can't imagine having a Mach 1 and not having the shaker connected. It just doesn't make sense to me lol. So I have been buying parts over the years to get back to the stock look.

This winter, I purchased an OEM windshield cowl as well as an OEM chin spoiler. I still have my original chin, but it's pretty beat up. I bought a cheap replacement from LMR in 2013, but it doesn't fit the same, so I've always had plans to spring for another original. They aren't cheap though, $209 haha.

Not yet, I only ordered on the 12th and had to wait for the group buy to close out of 20 sets, then production and send out for powder coat so 2 weeks isn't bad. I believe he shipped them yesterday.

Re: The "What did you do to the Mach this winter" thread!

So here are a couple shots of the Auto Shifter ball installed. I know the interior needs cleaned, I did the upgrades to her car, she is gonna clean it...

Looks good just different, just need a manual shifter boot for it.

I did a shifter ball on my 02 auto TA and liked it a lot better than the factory one

Re: The "What did you do to the Mach this winter" thread!

Thanks for the compliment.
