It's nice to see something original around here. Being mechanical, I like to see engine swaps and suspension upgrades, but it's typically nothing out of the ordinary. This is work we don't see often and I really enjoy it.

Bravo.

I thought the s13 seats you had originally looked great, but the stitching on the s14 seats and the cutout for the woofer is phenomenal. Looking to see what else you do to the vert.

Moving on to the lighting of the car im using acrylic rod inside my signals to corner lights and taillights which will be illuminated with LED's. Im going to incorporate all sorts of tricky wiring to make these lights do some cool things.

Im doing some research on 555 timers which I may use to create sequential lighting like the new mustang GT's but in a simple fashion i dont want the car a wiring headache nor a Christmas tree.

Ill post pictures of the signals illuminated to really show the effect of acrylic rod in the next few days!

Got one finished

I think im using the white only as running lights and when the signals activated the the white and amber will pulse like a switch back V2 bulb.

Having both white/amber on looks cool but a bit much i think.

Awesome build, man. Looks meticulous.

Do you know where I'd be able to find S13 patterns? I want to rewrap my interior.
