I had to straighten the accelerator arm and machined a 'peg' for the Z pedal to mount to and welded it on the arm. The 350z pedal is completely useless so I machined my own billet dead pedal identical to the Z's and attached it to the OEM plastic dead pedal. I posted a 'how-to' thread on here a while back if you want more details and pics

Also he wouldn't post his "build" on here because he is scared of all the bashing he is going to get for it. Hard to call it a build if all he does is buy $700 spacers and YAJ items. Plus it would be less about what he did to his car and more about trolling his own build thread. |

So you want one because as we know you're a fan boy, but now since other people have them it no longer appeals to you. Interesting. So what you like is strictly based off of what is trendy....but not too trendy. If too many people have it you're worried you won't get all the instalikes?

Please stop talking, and don't ever post your build because nobody fucking cares about it. |

I enjoy having things that are exclusive/uncommon, especially for interior parts. miracle xbars are no longer cool to me. I don't know about you guys but my eyes get tired of seeing the same shit all the time. NRG, nardi, takata, miracle xbar, throw on a grex shift knob... the typical stuff. |

If you want to be unique, have an upholstery shop do some one off work, and/or pay a fabricator to make you something custom. |

I believe tricky mentioned this recently, but there's a huge difference in seeing these parts/cars/combinations in person as opposed to seeing them online or in a thread dedicated to a particular car/style.
Might seem like "everyone" has a particular part, but you'll almost never see them in person aside from your own car. Either way, build a car to your liking, not to what random people on the internet think. |

the way I see it there are only a few routes people go with builds 1) the common hoonibro "missle" cambergang multicolor poor fitting replica aero - which is whatever, their style i guess 2) rocket bunny brah - also w/e 3) koguchi/itai/ito/type x route - a few guys have done it already very well to the point its now monotonous. 4) stock route - nothing cool really. 5) the wow factor - awesome parts that flow well in a way thats unexpected, and you are like wow I wish i would have thought of that! I don't see any of these particular parts where I'm from, not even s-chassis, but its just the whole copy cat cookie cutter builds with an over saturation in certain parts, just makes the parts less appealing as you see more of them. Only a few people decide to go all in with modifying their cars, and inspiration isn't a bad thing, but its kinda like eating your favorite meal every single day for years, you lose interest. I just enjoy seeing new things, and by that I mean styles of execution... is that a crime? I've almost completed my collection for interior parts, just need to find 1 specific boost guage, reupholster a steering wheel, paint the cage another color, and install them when its warm enough. |

No point even complaining about something being cookie cutter, there are only x amount of tasteful ways to build an S-Chassis. So something gets copied and tweaked based on preference. Things come in waves, for example, Blitz 03 were hot, then Model V, now it's TE37 time. Get over it and just enjoy it.

You're the one who walks out to your car every morning, make something that makes you appreciate looking at it every time. Nothing else matters.
What if some kid on the other side of town has the front bumper that you see every time you imagine your dream car, is that going to keep you from building that dream car? That shit is stupid.

This is the interior thread and I'm discussing interior lol. Its really the only place with the s-chassis, where you can really adventure down the path less traveled. Steering wheels, mirrors, upholstery, dash swaps, clusters, gauges and other electronics, gauge mounting/positioning, steering wheels, carpets, trinkets, lighting, seats, shift knobs/boots/shifters the list can go on for quite a while lol. |
