Hi Guys,

My interior is starting to look a little old...like my once black Brides that have now faded to purple :rolleyes: hahaha. So I have taken to it with Photoshop to see what it would look like with a new colour scheme. What do you guys think...is it an ok look, or gag material? :wave:

Sorry...not sure whats happened to the attachments, but when you click on them the picture is there :woot:

This is how it looks now

...and here is the roughly doctored version

The red is supposed to match the colour of the car, and was also thinking of doing the rocker cover in the same colour blend of black to red.

Any ideas from/opinions would be greatly appreciated :huh:

Cheers,

Jason.

Im not a fan of the colour coding interior, but my chalk is someone else's cheese!

If I did colour code the interior I would go down the same path you have there, but less is probably more, especially as red on black is such a contrast. My opinion though is subtle class! Black and dark... DARK... grey for a slight contrast

...that and a whole years earnings of carbon fibre parts of course! mmmm... carbon fibre!

Thanks for all of you input guys :happy: Really appreciated :)

Its only a doctored photoshop image so the colours aren't perfect :P Once decided and the work is done I will post the real photos to see what you guys think of the result :yes:

Cheers,

JB

After some of your thoughts, I went back and made some alterations...still with the red/black colour scheme, but now through the whole interior :) Is this better? I think this looks better although some will still think it's too much contrast :rolleyes:

Remember the red is supposed to be a burgundy...

Cheers all

Jason :)

thats nicer!

are you going leather, vinyl or normal fabric?

I was thinking of going normal fabric...I dont like leather so much :) I will have to see how possible/easy it is to get the dash, centre console, door panels etc made darker. Not sure whether they just paint them or replace them. Any ideas?

Thanks guys :)

JB

get leather, its more robust than fabric.

the kidney bits on my recaro's started to wear away from getting in and out of the car so i got the sides redone and the centre of the seats (fabric) cleaned it they look back to brand new :(

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
