I didnt mean yours are fake I mean so whenever I see some fake ones I can ward people away. See I own a car audio and custom shop and started selling sparco evos and recaro spg seats which are non reclinable but people want to recline so sportlines are nice but no one wants to pay the money for them so brides are a cheaper option but there are soooooo many fake ones that no one can even tell anymore......people even question the seats I sell......which are FIA certified of course...

Alrighty, she is almost done!!!!!!! Only things left to do now it, wait for my Radfiator drain plug to come in since the garage in Okinawa lost mine, bleed to clutch, repaint the back bumper and left side skirt, and get her registered. Here are a few updated pics: As she currently sits with the NISSAN stocks on, lol  This motor should only be in for a short while til I can get my new one. Got rid of all the red wire cover and went bback to stock black. Still need to change the vaccum lines.  As every knows with Vincent Doggy's cooling plate it makes it very difficult to unlatch ur hood with the prop rod in the way. Well I have modified mine so I dont have to deal with that anymore.   And the cockpit:

Struts are to luxury for me, like to keep her sporty lookin, lol. Thanx for the advise tho man. The prop rod idea was more for others how dont care to much for struts as well.

Nice plans, but why the fuel tank and bigger injectors? What are your power goals? I look forward to seeing this car swapped.

My power goal is 350-400hp the fuel tank is just more fuel capacity really. QUOTE (NYp8tBaller07 @ Sep 1, 2011 - 4:46 PM) how did you do the headliner? new material or special spray paint? The headliner was done with black fleece that u can get from either wal-mart or ur local hobby shop and spray adhiesive. -------------------- From Japan to Texas my st202 follows me.
