I was thinking of green back frp Misanos for mine cause they are one of the best looking seats around.
In Japan they were 52% off. So I was thinking of a green interior.

I can cross those off the list though. I am not making that kind of modification.

I guess it will be black bride then.

Looking good. I look at the fortunes everytime I go to Newera yard. They always look awesome. Yours does too!

cheers Russ, its taken a while to get it as it is now.
 
I must admit, I wasnt looking to have to make any amends either but you know how it is, there is always a little problem lurking when you do something new lol. Got to agree with you, they do look mega seats :)

The movie is a bit boring without any car sound though.

The real car with t04 Z is amazingly loud!!!!

Alex T

I was thinking that ! Was waiting the whole 6minutes for some car sounds, and all we got was the car starting up for a couple of secs!!

It is nice to see someone spending money on style instead of chasing BHP figures all the time. Were the works wheels a substitute due to Andrew\'s not being made anymore?

hi Mate, thanks and yes they were. There wasnt really much choice for simple looking wheels and the andrew evo\'s were an excellent choice but I think the work wheels look fine too :)

Only just noticed this thread!

Good to see another one! :D We\'ve got 2 here, one\'s sold - other one\'s just about ready to sell too. I think people fail to realise how much work has been involved in creating your Fortune FD!

Great job there. I think you\'re right about not fitting a big single. I prefer driving the twin than the crazy TO4Z one..

Are you doing a proper sound installation, etc. inside too?

You\'re going to laugh at the amount of attention these cars get. Camera phones and people pointing everywhere you go :D

Hi Miguel

I remember when we spoke oct.nov last yr I was aware what the work was going to be but your right there is more than you think. The rear lights had to have the back panel cut out and covers made so that you can access the bulbs without a nightmare.  Also the petrol tank piping etc etc and then more etc etc lol.

re the ICE, I have built this for myself and as such have gone for stelth. I have retained the rear seats so that my kids can get into it and have therefore, fitted as big as can fit into the current holes speaker wise. head unti wise I have gone for the all singing/dancing dvd/sat nav/digital tv etc double din unit. I have managed to find a couple of small amps that fit neetly behind the back seats. Not my preferred choice of make but the boot is still useable which is the main thing.

I have also had a spare wheel custom built so that I wont be totally stuck in the event of a puncture. Its been a very long project a year so far and there have been trials and tribulations along the way but I am looking forward to get it back shortly after the bumper has been painted again

lol..... your right about the camera phones lol

cheers for the interest :)
