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 :(

    • So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR
    • So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
