I sold my 96 mystic about five years ago, wanted another ever since. There is one that came up for sale locally, I'm considering buying it. Its all original except for the wheels, it has aftermarket Cobra R's. Its in good shape, only issue is some slight fading on the rear bumper. It currently...

I do a good bit of driving at night, and most of the area is rural with a good number of deer. I'm wanting to upgrade the lights on my daily driver (2003 4runner) to reach out further to help detect these things. I was going to just use a PNP HID kit, but it has halogen housings and I don't want...

I'm just wondering if any of you guys can help me out with a question. I have a 03 Toyota 4runner. I'm looking to get one of the hitch mounted cargo carriers for it. I've looked at several that fold up when not in use, and really like this idea. If I get one, it will stay in for months at a...

After the sale of my 96 Mystic, I'm beginning to look for the next purchase. It won't be anytime soon, but I'm looking at two models. Based on current pricing, I'm thinking I'll end up with a 03/04 Mach 1 or a 99/01 Cobra. I like the newer Mach 1. I love the looks and also just the fact that...

It's off my 96 Cobra. I ended up with two of these, sounds great but just selling the extra one I had left over. It's been of the car for a year or two now, but was in good working shape when it came off. I'm really not interested in shipping this, but will do $75 picked up (Arkansas) obo. I'll...

I've got a few leftover parts from my Cobra that I need to get rid of. Prices are obo and shipping is additional. I don't have pics at the moment, but will have them up this weekend. I've got a car cover, not sure of the brand. It was only used a couple times. $25. I've got a billet grille with...

Last Monday I sold my Mystic, then replaced it Thursday with a 2003 Toyota 4runner 4x4 Limited. I hated to do it, but I had to have something more practical as a daily driver. My finances don't allow two vehicles, so I had to make the move. Anyway, I'd like to say thank you all for the...

I'm gonna change the oil in the rear end on my car. It's got 135k miles and I don't know how long it's been so I'm sure it would help out. I've got a couple questions first. What weight oil is needed? How many quarts? What oil should I use. I know I'm suppose to add friction modifier, does it...

I'm kinda thinking about doing something different on my air filter. I thought about a CAI, but I don't think it'd benefit me much over the current setup. I'd like the BBK and relocate to the fenderwell, but I don't believe the cost is justifiable for the gains. I've saw several with a shield...

I'm really thinking about dropping my car some more. The car is my dd, so keeping a pretty decent ride is important. I currently have H&R Sports with Bilstein shocks. What would be the best way to go lower? Thanks for any input.

I'm considering going up a step or two in gearing on my car. I've got several bolt ons, nothing major (see sig). I currently have 3.73's. I'm looking at going to 4.10's, and maybe even 4.30's. My biggest concern is that this is my daily driver, so I need to keep it street friendly and try to...

I guess this is a theoretical question of sorts because I know there's probably no direct way to compare. Also, this is actually not on a Mustang, but I'm looking into getting a Toyota 4runner for my dd. You guys have always helped me out, so I figured this would be a good place to find out. I'm...

I've searched for hours and have yet to find a pic of a 96 Mystic with the Kaenen spoiler. Would anyone happen to have one (or maybe can photoshop one)? I'm waiting on a price quote to get it painted and I may be ordering one shortly, but I'd really like to see it first. Thanks!!!

I'm about to order a set of HID's for my Cobra and have a few questions first. I'm pretty set on going with the DDM tuning ones. For those that have them, should I pay the extra $15 for the 55 watt kit or will the 35 be plenty? Do HID's in the fogs really help that much? I'm thinking about doing...

I've got about $200-$300 available for some type of mod. I'm really not sure what I want and could use some input. All the details and current mods are in my sig (think they're all there). My first thought was to buy two 17x10.5 wheels and ditch the 17x9 rears (about to have to buy tires...

While trying to swap out wheels on my car the other day the stock jack broke on me, so now I'm in the market for a new one. I don't want the original jack. I'd like a full size floor jack that'd lift the car easily, but yet something small/light enough I can leave it in the trunk of the car...

I'm finally ready for some new tires on my Cobra. I'm planning on going with a 255/40/17 (just buying two tires for the front, will buy 275/40 or 285/40 for the rear in a few months). I currently have Hankook all season tires (just because they were on the wheels when I bought them). My car is...

I've posted pics here off an on, but I've finally got some of better quality. I'm new to photography and editing software, but I think these pics came out well (especially for a point and shoot camera). Let me know what you guys think, and if you have any suggestions let's hear them.

Do you guys think that the mystics will ever become a true "collectors car"? I'm really debating on selling mine, but it just seems that eventually they'll become valuable. Also, mine's at 133k miles, so I really don't know if it'd ever become worth something more. I'm figuring if they do become...

SOLD! Unfortunately I'm faced with a tough decision and need to part with my 96 Mystic. It's my only vehicle, and it's just too nice to continue to use as a daily driver. Right now it's at ~133k miles, and that's gonna change because it's my daily driver. It has no known issues at the moment...

I've got a few questions regarding the rear end. I'll admit, I'm somewhat new to Mustangs so sorry if these are dumb questions. First, how is the rear end suppose to lock in? When lifted up in the air, if you spin on rear tire both spin. You can hold the other in place, but it wants to turn with...

I'm about to change up my setup just a little. I'm undecided right now. I'm looking at going with a 275/40/17 555r (17x9 rims, and I've thought about trying to squeeze 315's though) or swapping out my 2 rears for 17x10.5's and running a 315/35/17 555 (since the 555r's don't measure true, if I...

Long story short, I'm trying to buy a daily driver so I can park my Mystic and only drive on nice days. We've had tons of bad weather lately, it's only a matter of time before something happens (like get caught in a hail storm). I really like my new wheels, but I could really use some extra...

My 96 Cobra has 132k miles. Under hard shifts, about 1 out of 5 times it'll grind and try to kick itself out of gear when going into second. It does fine at regular driving. A member of our local club rebuilds transmissions, he was at the track with me and said it's definitely the syncros. He...

I've been fighting with my CEL for a while now. First it was throwing a couple codes for the rear o2's. My car doesn't have cats, and my MILs quit. Last week I installed the spark plug non-foulers and while I had it up changed the fuel filter. After about 200 miles of driving my CEL came on...
