  1. so ive been doing abit of work on the car this weekend relocated oil filter. test fitted it all up, and decided it was mounted too low took the air box out to mount sandwich plate fitted oil cooler all up now just got to put new oil filter in. had to cut grill. the whole process of fitting cooler was a bit of a mish but final results a goodie. got a pair of japanese number plates given to me pretty stoked with that.
  2. not sure what second hand value is but ill have them go to good use if ya give me a price
  3. got springs back from chamberlins last friday and installed them first thing sat morning. springs are only just captive (inserts have not been shortened) height has dropped about 12mm did ask for them to drop it 20mm but still overall happy with them because they might not have been captive otherwise heres a pic with the compressed codbra's in the front with another lancer! got some nail polish on the "TURBO" came up as good as i thought it would and looks better red than just the bear metal. this weekend ill be mounting a oil cooler and braided hose's up then hook it all up next weekend along with oil and filter change. if anyone has some rear lowering springs they want to get rid of im supper keen so its not just low at the front. iv got the money just dont want to pay $240 for new ones!
  4. Yeah good point about mods but i still also have another black factory rocker cover if wanted to put back to standard
  5. got new wheel and boss kit thanks to stephen got board and decided i want more lowness so took springs out yesterday and are getting compressed at the mo at chamberlins. car should be sitting at excatly 100mm all going well
  6. is that factory rvr intercooler? pretty keen to get it faster somehow so im meeting with my ex lancer man tomorrow and we will go from there as to what mods ill do. ill keep you guys updated
  7. Yeah think ill do front mount along with a turbo upgrad. iv been told auto vr4 turbo is pretty much a bolt on so might go with that. will keep all old parts boxed up please it can always be put back to original state
  8. Haha cheers man. yeah not to many around now eh! Would make me sad too haha but your ex is looking very nice now! do you have any recommendations on how to make my 4g62t faster. isn't really anything special at the mo def no rocketship but want it as fast as possible so if anyone has any recommendations pleas feel free to say
  9. has been resprayed, told it was a couple of years ago but paints been well done have also dealt to that rust. it was rusty water leaking from raditor cap. someone want to tell me why the water would be rusty?
  10. yeah i cut it down last weekend so now it doesnt face down and sprayed it black. cheers man if you have same lip as me you will have to trim guards as they are shorter than standard ones, your may have already known that but im more than happy to do some measurements, what are ya after mate
  11. yeah i cut it down last weekend so now it doesnt face down and sprayed it black. cheers man
  12. this is my lancer. please leave a comment
  13. decided to put some SSR Star Sharks on it got a steam clean on motor so stoked! was so happy with how engin bay was looking so went and painted rokercover blue and added blue vac lines and a sard bov!!! trying to leave everything as orginal as possible so decided to mount the best headunit i could afford at the time in the glove box put some JVC 6"s and tweaters in rear parcel tray along with painting tray black with vynal paint put on ralliart knob dash had crap paint and have owned four EX's and never taken a dash out so that was my goal to pull one out without any damage got it out and found rust treated rust with 'rust kill' and sprayed over with some white paint after cleaning it all up hopefully this buys me some time painted dash and surroundings black with the same vynal paint used for rear parcel tray and came up 1million dollars :PPPPPPP as you can see in the pics from when i first bought the lancer all of the door cards were falling off. now i have fixed this by glueing the clips back on with licquid nails, wish they were mint cards but looks alot better with the glue. ill start a discussion thread so you can all give me advice and what not please excuse my spelling lol was teriable in english at school lol
  14. bought a factory turbo 1800gsr lancer g62b. when i first got it Stephen Wright has helped me a lot with doing mods to my lancer and fixing it up. Stephen knows everything there is to mitsi's new and old. he has steam cleanded my motor, sourced me parts eg: gaskets and seals also painted my tappet cover and fitted B.O.V replaced my air filter with a new "K&N" filter. Stephen has also fixed my gearbox and is willing to help other old schoolers if ya ever get stuch for the right price. his work is exceptional well recomended! This is his trademe profile if you ever want to contact him he usually has a "lancer and starion performance parts" listing. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Members/Profil ... er=2256947 please discuss here viewtopic.php?f=18&t=32382 so bought it pretty much completely standard in running condition 3months ago since then iv done a few upgrades but keeping in mind that i want to have it as orginal as possible (still has factory radio)
  15. just got around to putting springs in and YES they do fit!!!! pretty happy, only dropped 23mm but still now the ex is 118mm off the ground, sits pretty good. will start a build thread once i figuer out how to unload pics to this site.
  16. Sweet ill stick them in this weekend if i get time
  17. Want to lower my factory turbo lancer but can only find info on non turbo models so can someone tell me what springs will fit the turbo ex struts (i have some codbra 1600cc joys will these fit?) any info would be great as want to lower early next week
  18. turns out all it needed was the the plastic peice that covers the ball on the shifter was an easy fix!!! also drilled out the holes that hold the shifter on to run bigger bolts for more strength aparntly its a common problem to snap these 3bolts on mitzi boxs
  19. fuel i have done a bit of research and yes you are 100percent corrent! thank you.
  20. what was wrong with your one. my box is a hydrolic clutch
  21. yes that is a valid point but what sort of price will i be looking at
