Big respect to the interior, I want to do something similar with mine. Where did you get the front seats from? And I need to see the finished rears as I'm about to do it to mine soon....

Thanks man, I'm quite proud of my interior as well :D
The seats came from the user on here, RS_OBD'oh_2
They're made by "ottoR", not sure if you'll be able to find em :shrug:
I will take some piccies tomorrow. the seats weren't so hard to do; however, I would strongly recommend sewing glue for putting the vinyl (or leather) on.

Yeah, I don't know about the blue in Canada.
Those LEDs are cool.
I like my mirrors, and didn't know if I would. I altered the lines a bit. I got them because they were the only decent mirrors with turn signals in them, and I got them used. Also, they are slightly more aerodynamic.

I've seen a few cars that have the timing belt cover left off. You'd just run the risk of something screwing it up. I had a hard time doing the timing belt, too. Getting it apart and back together wasn't too hard, but getting the timing right was.
When I put in my new cams with adjustable pulleys, I'm going to cut the tops of the covers off, and put them back on, so I can easily remove them to adjust the pulleys.

So I think I found the style of the wheel I'm after...no metal showing in the middle or anything like that. I may just go ahead and get this one, but will have to think about the quality first.

I'll have to take a better look, maybe email them up and ask if it's got a shade of purple in it (could just be lighting :shrug: )

It doesn't really fit your color scheme besides being all black, but it is freaking nice

did you go stainless? how much was that bad boy to get put together? i have all my exhaust parts ready to be welded ive just been putting off looking for quotes. wouldnt mind going stainless if its not too expensive, but i really have no idea what i should expect piping + welding to cost... im thinking around $200 for regular steel?
