we'll, I bought my 240 before the summer and decided I'd tackle the interior first. It came with brown interior and coffee stained carpet. though the dash and panels were real clean, I felt it needed to go. Sooo, I picked up a complete black interrior and set to work to create my ideal S13 interior.
I was gonna do the digi climate control mod..but figure I'd attempt it later. heh

This shit is like 1995 spec.

09-02-2008, 09:00 PM
it's interesting. The pictures make the carpet look a lot brighter blue than it really is. it's more of a royal blue than the electric blue it looks like in these. as for where I got the carpet, from http://www.aabestco.com they do custom moulded carpets for all kinds of makes and models. Real friendly aswell..they sent me up some different fabric samples to choose from.

Now THAT's sexy. :) Got my black/grey interior now, but door panels are Manual, and I have electric... Not sure how I'm gonna handle running mismatched door panels till I can find the right ones, but meh. Oh and the new dash is 1,000,000,000,013.4 times better than my brown dash. (exact calculation too.)
As for the OP, not my thing... I hope you don't drive it around with it lit up like that. Way too bright. Also the door panel inserts look pretty jacked, but it's understandable, as they're a pain to recover being con-caved. I'm dreading reupholstering mine, but. *shrug* At least your happy with it... just too HIN for my OEM taste.

Yes, the leds need to go. More than anything anyway. The pattern on the door skins isn't all that appealing either. Perhaps matching the door panels with the leather seats would be better. The chrome/metal accents on the steering wheel and center console look neat, but excessive on the air vents. These days, the trend is towards "clean" cars.
Still, you have the skill to do whatever you want to. On my own doors, I just ripped off the tweed and put on some armor all. It's about the extent of my abilities. Try working on your engine bay next. Just clean and polish things and check out the props you'll get.

09-03-2008, 05:08 AM
lol ok, question...more than anything, is it the fact I put blue leds in it that people don't like?
Well, *personally* I don't think it is the lights, as even in Japan, lights are kinda cool to have in moderation (I have a few for my car), but, with that said...tone them back a little and personally for me it was the door panels that killed it. I like the gauge cluster, and seats... but I don't get the door panels and the white trim around them...
Now THAT's sexy. :) Got my black/grey interior now, but door panels are Manual, and I have electric... Not sure how I'm gonna handle running mismatched door panels till I can find the right ones, but meh. Oh and the new dash is 1,000,000,000,013.4 times better than my brown dash.

Agreed, Anto's interior is to me, the epitome of perfect. :snoop:
As for door panels, no worries, get a good fabric and good spray adhesive, a friend and take your sweet time ;)
Door panels = fail-spec.
Everything else... Seemingly well done, but like most everyone else, I'm not feeling it.
Werd. I think the door panels would be best left black, and if you don't want to re-do them, then, remove tweed and leave the nice simple black on it.
Flipzide
09-03-2008, 05:08 AM
looks kinda tacky with the harness belt pads and the door trim and the "nismo seats", but i like the "aura" of the lights (minus the trunk).
imo, literally all black with oem s15 seats or aftermarket buckets/reclinable buckets (sparco, recaro, or bride) would look sick combined with those neon light things of yours.
oh and i'm diggin that key ring too, ahha.

I don't even think it's really the blue lights everywhere, as much as the ugly door panels, knock-off "NISMO" seats, and useless belt pads.
If you fixed that stuff, and put some of the silver parts (mainly the air vents) back to black, it would look fine.
Just my :2c:

I think if you got rid of or changed the door panels, went to black on the vents, and lost the trunk glow.
Im down with everything else.
i like the silver accent, just to much with the vents.
LOVE the lighted key thing.
like the gauges
seats are cool for cheapies, no one but us and a few others can tell thier cheap. girls dont know ;)
Even the under dash glow is cool if it only comes on when you flip a switch.
Think its just a case of a little too much stuff.
Oh yeah, move the seat belt covers to the back seats at least. So there just kind of representing Nissan as a accent.

you know what man, I couldn't agree more. I've been looking at everything and reading everyones comments. The shoulder pads don't match the blue carpet and actually cheapen the look. as well I had some left over black fabric so I did a mock up on the passenger in all black with white trim and I think it looks a lot cleaner.
Ps: the seats are really nice and comfy, but how'd you figure they were cheapo? xD
*edit* and of course I have the glow on a switch. hahah I only turn it on when I'm feeling flashy.

There's plenty of info on this already. Nismo does not make a seat except for the BNR34 upgrade that sells for about $1800 each. Anything else with Nismo on it is pure shit made in Taiwan. They may be better than your old worn out OE seats but that's like saying catching gonorrhea is better than catching HIV. You still don't want either one.

There's plenty of info on this already. Nismo does not make a seat except for the BNR34 upgrade that sells for about $1800 each. Anything else with Nismo on it is pure shit made in Taiwan. They may be better than your old worn out OE seats but that's like saying catching gonorrhea is better than catching HIV. You still don't want either one.
:bow:
Exactly.

Love it for what is it; a mid nineties car, with mid nineties funky pimp infused styling. Good work bro.

Not my personally preferance, but to each his own, And it's your car so if YOU like it that's all that matters, i think it would loook 10000X better with black carpet.
But i like all the little things you did with it, looks good.

*update*
I took some advice suggested and am quite pleased!
Aswell, I am not/didn't do this to please any of you. I just got to thinking and since I had extra fabric and some time, I figured I'd give it a shot to see.
gonna change the centre consol and glove box to black to match aswell. I think it will make it.

Mike, you've been taken to task for product-whoring in the past, and I am inclined to want to toss you a hand towel to wipe yourself off after your masturbatory quoting of like 50 million posts at once to say nothing at all just there.
Look, PLEASE knock it off.

Canadians have different taste than Americans. honestly. I grew up on the border, and that car style is "cool" up there.
I found that absolutly hilarious that you'd actually think that. Its like people thinking we live in igloos, have polar bears as pets and ride around on dog sled.
haha

Naw dude, lol.
Your country has its own taste and style that are different from us here in America.
growing up on the Vancouver border, the differences in taste are REALLY obvious. Although I don't think Canadians realized it.
But it is a different country, with a population smaller than California, with a entirerly different government system and a earlier drinking age, weapon laws, and all kinds of other small things than add up to different taste then we have on this side of the border.:2c:
My evidence is the amount of Candians that wore "BOSS" clothing through the late 90's and early 2000!!:rofl:
LMAO!!
Im actually about to pick my Canadian friend up at the airport in 3 hours :)
And the car looks alot better with the darker door panels man, nice work!!

No doubt our "cultures" do differ to a point, and were usually are about a year behind trends compared to the U.S. For example the JDM and now VIP styling that is just starting to catch on. and I 100% agree with the difference in weapon laws, drinking age and related topics changing the mindset of people.
Anyways, my point was we dont race around in 9-second-limegreen eclipses with neons, 5ft. spoilers, flying floor panels and fryd piston rings becuase of DANGER TO TEH MANIFOLD!!!!!
Hahah
I've never heard of Boss.... must not have hit the east coast very much, or was before my time. Your buddy from vancouver?

Might have been before your time, Im 32 :) . And BOSS may have been a west coast thing.
She is originally from Langely, just below VAN.
She married a rich dude in Alaska. they own a Nissan/Subie dealership and are staying at my house this week for a friends wedding, and drifting my car saturday.
They do Ralley racing.

i guess you could say smurf blue.
But I prefer to say, Voodoo Blue from the 06/07 Toyota FJ Cruiser :keke:
Glad to hear its not cool in Canada anymore. Cause I used to run into TONS of rice up there, and dudes in wife beaters driving around Mustang 5.0's
Maybe WhiteRock canada is like our Florida?? :tardrim:

Should have went stock. Thats what i did. Go to a junk yard and find some really clean oem interiors, and with that extra money, could have saved up for performance.

Hahaha. I was just bugging you.
Seriously tho, the new rice up here is like stock R32's. EVERYONE has them. They're always black. IF they do have wheels, they were most likely purchased off the shelf of a tire shop. Just brutal.
And people tell my bro he should have left his R32 black. LOL. It would have been like every other car up here.

Sounds like shes pretty set, lol. Rallying in Alaska.. fuk that would be a blast, I bet they'll be pretty damn good drifting your car, maybe even better then you.... Rally drivers are crazy skilled.
But you do see the odd white guy driving a 5.0 or IROC Z every now and then. Funny sight.

back in 02 i did the white center console /steering column thing and it was pretty sweet back then with a nice head unit.. then in 04 i sprayed it all black..
Times have changed and now the trend is more clean simple japanese tune influence.
this aint bad tho.. its just different tastes, some people starting to put stuff on their cars now like bosozuko replicating. Some people like it, some dont.
You dont really need to take whatever anyone says her, you already did alot by contributing and showing us what your up to.
I remember mrmeph kevin i think, took pics of a kouki 180sx in japan that had indiglo gauges and what not and the general audience of zilvia thought it was tight.
