Sup guys and girls, I am Rhy.
I have a 300ZX TT, and I been on the aus300ZX.com.au forums for a while now, and my GF just bought a 2002 white CE lancer, 2 door.
She use to have an old CE sedan, it was all crashed and F'ed up, after many repairs I gave up on it, and it seems so did she :p


She had her heart set on getting this lancer and doing all the usually lancer crap (-_-') so I thought I'd help her get this thing looking better :p

We started with the usual, I ripped the trim and got some re-prays done. also blackened up the center console, That greyish color was ugly as hell...
Anyway, Looks like this.

After this was done, I fitted that dash mat, to hide moire of the ugly grey, that dash mat will be re done with some white trim, but not just yet.

I installed some custom speakers, a 12" sub and amp and ran some pretty purple wires all around the car so they cant be seen (pointless purple :p)

NEXT! I got some clear LED rear lights and fitted them in, shaved the badges, stripped the black windshield lining stuff to get to the shiny silver under it and I also fitted some clear side indicators, orange is ugly.
Got a white steering wheel, white gear shifter knob, gear shifter leather, handbrake and handbrake leather on its way and some custom floor mats..

She wanted racing seats originally, But I said no, that would be a stupid ass idea for her, But she does want some white seats...
I looked at converting the Lancer to fit some old 300ZX seats that I could re-trim, but that was too hard, and I've looked at just seat covers, but none seem to fit too well (no headrest on CE 2 door -_- )

So first question, where can I get some seat covers or some dimensions to make my own?
I don't really want to rip into her seats encase I mess something up.

Also Got some 16'' mags on it with lower profile tiers, while calipers and I blinged the engine bay a bit too.

Body kit is expected, but she cant decide -_-

So... Thats her Lancer....
Personally, I don't like them -_- Mainly because I'm from Rockhampton, and ever Lancer here has pods all over the door sill and dash, huge taco and big cannon muffler, and they are no faster than a rolling detached tier.

I'm a bit of a computer nerd and I will prolly be trolling round these forums a bit to see if anyhting pops up.
I work on my 300zx, so lancer mechanics are a piece of piss, ask any questions and I should be able to help.

If you havent seen a 300zx engine... prepare for a cluster f@ck.

Let me get the boys...


Welcome! Lancer looks clean, though not a fan of 300zx :p Enjoy your stay
 
I'm expecting some arguments with the 300zx vs the Lancer :p
I'm up for it but lol! my GF gives me *poo* all the time now -_-

Also, everyone wants to know how to mod these things :S should write up a big walk through of the simple mods you can do.

I'd do it if it was wanted.
 
Nooo dont say that you'll get flamed, quick go use the search tool up the top right and it's all there, and there is a lot of stickies around!

Btw whats the 300zx pull down the 1/4?

jeez man, depends whats been done...
Mine is a bit of a wreck atm.. whole engine is out, blew a water pump but I'm replacing all my belts n shiz while in in there.

We got a guy on forums that running fairly stocko Z with tweeks and like pod filters and shiz, all the cheap stuff and he pulled a 11.8

Stock off the lot they are a little under 300hp, the TT's have a quick wind up and are a fairly fast car.
Nothing amazing, but for a luxury car..... they are little rockets. (yes, they where luxury when they came out)
 
Ummm... seats let me find you a thread that a member did his seats.

and the power to weight would be as high as the silvia/skylines then if the 300zx was lux spec... they must've been like the soarer then :p

They are the heaviest gawd damn car....
Cant push mine... just doesn't happen...

Mine lux, got the ambient temp aircon, electric seat and windows, all that jazz.. not bad for a 1989 car.

And I'm searching man, cant find much on seat re-trim or custom fit covers ay :(
 
viewtopic.php?f=36&t=752 Bingo, re-trim, sine Mitsu is lazy most stuff seams to carry throughout the lancer range. as you probs already know, most of dash is clipped on, so is back seat I believe, pretty simple.
 
never got the "paintallthelittlebitsyoucanwhite" interior, but good on you's.


pics of the z32? hope it has a man pedal
 
nice job on the trim man, that come up nice, and i know what you mean on the 300zx, done some aircon work and an alternator on one. as soon as i opened the bonnet i was immedietly angry haha.
