I also figured I would post up the pics of my latest interior build....... As most of you may recall, I use to have an all black leather and suede refinished OEM seats etc. I have wanted a set a Bride Gias for this thing for years now. I finally got a good deal on a set of Gias Mazoria edition. So I had to reupholster the interior around the Gias being the center focal point. As usual, I like fairly low key styling in everything I do, but with a little flash here and there. So in keeping with the standard black Bride material on the seat, along with the Bride Hyper Black material on the cushions, I came up with a nice layout for the rest of the interior. --Back seat: standard Bride material with Hyper Black center panels. --Glove box: Hyper Black material --Armrest: Hyper Black material --Rear Deck: Hyper Black material --Door card: inserts Hyper Black material --Shift boot: Hyper Black material --Headliner: Not finished yet.... either Hyper Black or a combination of standard black. I don't have any pictures of the back seat or rear deck yet. It was getting late and it was difficult to get a "good" shot, from a photographer's point of view, of the back seat and deck. The rear deck in Bride fabric happens to be my favorite part of the interior actually ..... and a couple pics of my new wheel setup and refinished brakes: |

Awesome as usual. Are you using a hydraulic parking brake? I can't really tell what you have in the rear. Also, are they white like the fronts? The more I see your cluster, the more I want to enlist your services. Maybe one of these days once i get back to the real world from the "beach". Your work is always an inspiration.

Few pics of the powder coat job and a couple of my electroplating setup. Looks like a meth lab. Also some pics of my finished zinc plating. After the plating, I dipped each piece in either a gold or black chromate to get the final color. There is also a before shot of a retaining clip too so you can see the difference. More pics of the hardware I plated gold and black. Then a couple of the calipers reassembled. These were taken before I painted the raised letters on the Z32's black. The black hardware looks wet because it gets doused with WD40 as a final sealant. Last edited by Broadfield; 09-07-2009 at 10:56 AM.. |

Damn, I wish you would make a how-to guide on building your car because honestly it's everything I want to do to mine.

Yeah, not a whole lot left to do to the car. The only thing I really have left is to build the bottom end..... top end is good to go. And I may only build the bottom end if it goes. We'll just have to wait and see. The other is an OEM aero bumper, skirts etc. or OEM Silvia lip. Then of course the standard swap out for new wheels every year or two.

Like everyone says, the attention to detail is ridiculous! Like that shiny new copper wire holding your brake pins! Details!
Really inspiring.
