Ya.... A mix of what everyone said.... lol

Do what YOU want to the car though, not what everyone else tells you.

BE PATIENT and it will come together slowly.

Good Luck, Have Fun!

One Love,

nice. I don't see how someone can buy something they don't want. If you want interior cheap it means you have to take it your self. Call junkyards for s14 and that you want an excellent condition interior set or whatever you need. Look through the partout threads. I could have had a free s14 that got tboned a year ago. I just do not think you are asserting yourself enough to have a nice interior. Go to a local meet and get to asking what extra 240sx stuff is around in closets. 240sx=extraparts

I'm seriously thinking about fiberglassing the dash. How hard can it be really? and I'll have the benefit of it being as custom as I have the patience for.

glare???

.. Anybody know of a good write-up on fiberglassing on the web?

Also how many of these kits do you think I would need to complete a dash and other small interior peices?

He doesn't like the crack in the dash on the S14, but digs the diamond plate panel that's riveted in on the passengerside floor board of the eclispe....

Sorry bro, but I have more than a crack in my dash. Half of it is missing (cut out).

I'm also missing alot of other interior pieces like pillars and carpet.. so frankly I think your "Fast and the Furious" joke is pretty lame.

Oh cry me a river... It was a joke, and perhaps you should look harder for the parts you want/missing instead of bitching about it. There's a new S14 part out every week... Good luck with getting it the way you want it. Welcome to the boards.

2 minutes of looking and I found this... Not too far from you either.

It's a great looking car. From the outside that is. I'm kind of in the same boat. A nice interior makes a lot of difference, since you're always inside the car. I wish my hatch would be a little quieter while I'm driving. Just take your time to find the items you need. That's all I'm really planning on doing now. Taking my time to get rid of all the rattling and other annoying noises in the car.

thanks.. If thats your car in your sig it looks good, better than mine I think.

I just sold my turbo parts in order to have some extra money to get this interior together so hopefully I can find a dash and then work on the new turbo setup
