So who wants to go to the track?

Or go cruising? We should meet up and go bowling or racing or something. It's been forever since we all met up, if ever. Let's put something together.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

yeah. Not much of a meet if it's just a stock Silverado and an incredibly NOT STOCK SVT...

When did everybody in SC get lives all the sudden?

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

Right. Well when the Firebird is roadworthy, we'll have three. And then my friend's 5.0 Coupe makes four. yippee.

Four completely unrelated vehicles.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

It's cool. Yeah, I'm looking outside and it looks kinda scary. Gotta put the truck ALL the way inside the garage, which is an ordeal all in itself. I'm done claying and polishing, and now I'm layering on copious amounts of Meguiars NXT paste wax before I cover it in Carnauba(if I cover it in carnauba).

I am now a confirmed believer in clay. WOW.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

It may be a little more work in the beginning, but it TOTALLY pays off afterwards.. Glad to see you've come to the dark side!

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

My hood finally feels like an '02 modern clearcoat instead of an '82 enamel. I will probably do the front fenders or roof next weekend, then one set of doors the next, then the other side, then the bed when I get around to it. The bed has craploads of stuff in the paint(it WAS a work truck afterall). I'm not gonna bother with the inside of the bed, cuz that's getting rhinolined eventually.

That clay is worth its weight in gold.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

Hi, I'm new here too. So far I have recieved a lot of useful information. The only days that I'm available is Saturday (but not this one). I live in Irving.

BTW Hydramatic, is your 97 Mystique deceased? Perhaps I could buy your mass airflow sensor from you. Mine is going out and $100 for a rebuilt is too big of a penny for me while I'm in school.

I look forward to more discussions.

Welcome to CEG! Actually the guys over at Garland Transmission revived my baby and sold it to some middle-age chick, who as I'm told, has now removed the "Merc-0-Matic" letters from the windshield. It took me forever to put those things on! If you ever see a Prairie Tan '97 Mystique running around with BF Goodrich Radial T/As with the white letters OUT, that was my old car. Now I drive the Uberado but I still have a couple parts for the Mystique laying around. I don't have my MAF, but I do have the original Throttle body, as well as a passenger side mirror (power) and some various odds and ends...

If there's ever anything you need, I can always keep an eye out the next time I go down to Pick N Pull down going towards Poteet. Just ask me and I'll see about picking it up. If I recall correctly, there was a 96-97 Mystique with a Zetec and the 5-speed out there. I didn't check to see if the MAF was still there, but it probably was.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

Awesome! Thanks. I've only been to the pick n pull once before. I didn't think about checking there. The last time I went though was with a friend for his car and I was looking for the cooling fan resistor but didn't remember exactly where it was. After reading how to take it out to test or replace it I decided to proceed with a "fix" that one of the other members posted until I have time to proceed with the replacement. I can't remember where the post or what the title of it is.

I was looking for the post and I found this:

#1228307 (Re: texasmerc2000) 04/30/06 12:09 AM

That is what my Mystique pretty much looks like except I have the rear spoiler. I have the same paint and tires. I'll try to get some pictures of it someday.

Re: So who wants to go to the track?

Also I just recently found out about the wiring harness recall and took advantage of it. For my Mystique the recall expires on the 23rd of June and I found out about it at the end of March. That saved me a ton of money
