What did you do to your Mach 1 today

[IPOGT]

I used weather strip adhesive. Worked great for me.

Actually the whole thing was black. I painted it FJG and left the gurney flap black. The whole thing black was too much...

Hey. Car looks awesome! Sorry if already covered. Are those tyres PS4S 315 and 305? Hard to get here is Australia, but I got a set. All good in replacing the Cup 2’s? I know they’re same size, but just checking?

Yes. Window tint was the first thing I did. Changing the Cup 2's was the second, all in the first week. The Cup 2's were horrible on the street, the PS4S are MUCH better.

Maintenance.

Oil change. The oil filter was leaking a bit. Hmm. The dealer touched it last. Giant mess of oil residue and grunge. I cleaned it up, and spun on a new OEM filter extra hand tight, with no lubrication on the seal, per the manual.

Changed transmission fluid for Amsoil DCT. I took it on a quick drive and it felt good.

Changed the rear diff for Amsoil as well. I removed the drain plug, which in hindsight is risky, the cooler line makes it tough to line back up the threads. There is a risk of cross threading this way.

My goodies from Steeda showed up. Ultimate handling kit, diff bushings, camber plates, FP toe bushings, plus some other bits.

That's all well and good but for God's sake man, get that stock suitcase resonator off of that thing and put an H pipe on ASAP!

One reason I didn’t go HP. I didn’t buy the car for gas mileage, but man does this sucker drink… Can’t imagine how the extra weight and mass of bigger wheels and tires would make that worse. Doesn’t help that it begs for you to put your foot in it….;-) Feeding this sucker as a daily could cost ya a car payment.

Stock exhaust sounds great to me and I don't want it any louder.

I have to agree, the Mach 1 exhaust is fantastic as is. I did do a res delete (Borla Switchfire) and it isn't much louder but the tone is really nice

I have a steeda H pipe waiting to go on mine.

 

[Jimmy Dean]

Bought a new one! This makes 4. (actually I bought 3 of the little hot-wheels cars, one for my home office, one for my son, one for my office office)

Great choice!

Do you have the 10R80 too? I'd love to see the look on their face when they try steal your car and they see that shift knob.
