G'day guys,
Finally, the Manual V6 TS i bought 2 months ago for $2000 @ 100000kms on the clock is finally more or less complete...When i got her she had those awful grey bumpers, stock wheels (hubcaps), the most run down dirtiest interior id ever seen as well as a layer of dirt on the body which made her look more brown than pearl white, and no speakers!...with much help from all the crew on this forum, ive managed to change my TS into something worth a glance...So, thanks to all that have helped me out with ideas and tips. Any more ideas/feed back is much appriciated!
Cheers,
Adz

P.S. Its getting lowered when the tax return comes back!

Wow man nice job. Good to see after 20 posts and one month we've helpd inspire you. Looking great.

I think maybe change the grill, but otherwise no faults.

Think you've done a top job there!
color coded bumpers are freeken yummy, and wheels are nice too, the cannon also looks sexayyy

Some pointers?
-IF your getting a nice tax return, when doing springs (and shocks?) get some parabolic headlights (from the KS, refer to my av)
-make the front and side indicators clear.
-Paint your console white or something....ive got pics of mine on here somewhere...
-white dials?(pm me lol)
-cover the BOSS kit up with something....

other then that NICE WORK!! great to see the 2nd gen's still being cared for

Looks pimpin dude.

Fix the boss kit (by fix I mean cover), get rid of that mitsu badge on the dash and do something about that gearstick cover and she'll be golden.

I did the respray myself, and all up with autopaint, primer and the time it took me it was about $120, about 5 hours and a six-pack of beer. lol and i agree, white is the sexiest colour!
What added goodies do you have on yours? Ive done a few mods but im always open to ideas...

G'day guys,
the most run down dirtiest interior id ever seen !


Hey, I know what that is like. Someone must have had a dog caged up in mine for years. I'm still picking out fur and hair. Pull off a plastic panel, and you find another clump.



Your car looks nice now.


(and isn't white a balanced mixture of all colours together?)

(and isn't white a balanced mixture of all colours together?)Depends on if you are talking about additive or subtractive colour systems...:lurk:

lol i like that, "Someone had a dog caged up in mine for years" ...lol i had an old man caged up in mine for years, same amount of hair everywhere...im going to take the easy way out and get white seat covers....oh n btw, i think technical deffinition states that white is the lack of colour...

im really loving your car! looks nice and shiney! oooohh aaaahhh

but yeah Parras are a must on a white car.
maybe fix up the grille also, a bit of mesh or some fibre glass?


and as for white.....white is a shade, along side with black....and anything in between.


colours are only the ones found on the colour wheel if anyone remembers yr7 art lol.

...is there really much difference between para's and stock lights? I mean, i know my lights atm are **** as but is there a difference in looks? 'scuse the ignorance. And where can i get 'em from if it will improve the looks?

Exterior = Good

Interior = Remove that awful gearknob and the disgusting floormats. The 'Mitsubishi' badge on the dash should go to. It'll look a lot better then IMHO.

apparently paras give a much clearer projection of light, but thats what ive been told.

you can pick up a set from most wreckers and pay between $150 p-p and $400 p-p.

i hnestly think the only reason they give out more light is becuase they are not fogged up like standard TR/TS headlights.
