Hi Guys ive got 2 questions

1. How much would it cost to replace my carpets in my car, i dont want floor mats, i want the whole molded proper thing, i know there are companies out there that make them but i cant find any, If u have done this and have any experience with the companys or just know of who to contact the please PM Me im in NSW but i presume the could post em, i only want to do it if i can replace it with Burgandy Super Plush Pile.

2. Under acceleration my car makes a noise asif ive left a spanner sitting on something metal, its specifically a metal on metal rattyling noise, i check and i havnt actually left any tools in there,I Have a 3L Te, its probably nothing but my last car made this noise and then about 2 weeks after the bearings in the crank shaft turned into dust, if u put my car in neutral and rev it it doesnt make the noise so its gotta be something to do with the vibrations caused when acclerating, it has been making this noise for months, i do have a broken right engine mount which prolly doesnt help but it was making this noise previous to breaking the engine mount.

Cheers

Luke

Carpet, $350 from mitsu, only place I found that does it.

Noise, have you checked your exhuast rubber mounts??? I had a problem like this in another car, it was the rubber mounts, on one side it was broken off and under excelleration it sounded just like you described, check them out.

cheers mate,

i wanted super plush burgandy carpet i dont think mitsubishi does that.
ill check the exaust mounts 2moro to dark now.

mate i dont have a copy with me atm, but every month in street machine magazine theres a company that sellscarpets and has an add, off memory could be somewhere around $250?

grab a mates issue hoped that helped

$185 deliverd all up for super plush, unfortunatly according to there website they only make them up to 96 so for 2nd Gen magna's

ill email them and find out if they make em for 3rd gens


by the way theres a left hand side 2000model verader headlight for sale on aus ebay. i found it in my adventure for carpet

also a set of clear tail lights for Te-Th for buy it now of 200Aud

had a quick look at the knox carpets site what colour would be good for a red car?

is american red plush too much on a red car ?

it would have to be either dark grey or blue otherwise

attempting to have a red car with blue highlights does that sound weird?

the rattle would 99.9% sure is the mesh join under the motor on the exharst but .1% wrong

im thinkin bout gettin all black carpet, you can get samples sent out to ya by that company, i got some a while back, its good stuff....
but in my ventures i found this spray the 'dyes' the carpet, im not sure bout it though, any1 used it?

my only concern with these products is u still have your own crummy worn carpet, just a new colour.

yes red with blue is weird, are you trying to create a purple car ?

also i think just normal red would be better that american red, normal red has a deeper red colour to it. or u could go black. or white if u had a no shoes in car policy.

afaik u cant get moulded carpets for 3rd gens, my new car has aftermarket carpet in it, but u can see where its been cut

yeah the purple people eater [prpl-tr] would make a good plate /me ponders? narh i think ill go grey or black

PS the ratteling its in the exhaust?? the exhaust in the 3rd gens is badly made the place where the 2 manafolds join there is a small peice of steel that can come loose hard to describe hope my artistic skillz are up to scrach here but

:stoopid:

Had this problem in my car.

If this is your issue, the best solution is to buy and install some decent after-market extractors rather than replacing the factory manifolds! Unless you have warranty.. which you don't.
