Carbon Fiber Dash

anyone know of company who makes the carbon fiber dash kit for the FD. I know of some but all of them are just the dash and not the center piece. I am interested in buying the kit with the center piece console that goes around the shifter and ashtray as well..

Any suggestions would help...Thanks

SP Engineering has a CF cowl that replaces the instrument panel, but it has a cutout that looks like it fits a STACK panel, instead of the 5 holes our stock ones have. I think it's Amemiya.

I was afraid to ask how much it was-didn't want to be tempted into buying.

yeah i've seen that too. it's been there forever. that thing ain't ever gonna get sold. w/ the price of that panel AND a stack meter, you could get a single turbo kit.

i really like the kit, only wanting a trim ting around the center and passenger air vents. the color (red) in the kit also really does not match the red on the car :-( i will be repainting it a deeper red soon...

i am going with the torasport. The VR on my red still looks like its new...i'm pretty sure the red/black from torasport will be perfect. It is a lil different on your kit. I'll let ya know after it goes in.

I think that CF peice is SARD, I'll have to look at my Options 2001 catalog to be sure though..

Possibly. I just assumed it was Amemiya because I see him using something similar to it in his white GTC car, and there's an Amemiya boostgauge sitting next to it in the display showcase.

There could be one from Amemiya on the market but only Canman could probably tell us that.

Here's prices/pics for the SARD one. Granted the FD specific one isn't shown but you get the idea. Also check out the STACK displays, it shows them illuminated and they look very cool.
