One part nice, three parts rice, all badass
Okay, so in this picture we see my sterling carb. Beautiful, isn't it? It was made with low range power and torque in mind. Sterling, every time I have a beer I drop a little on the ground for you.... and Onlyonthurs.
Next we have my Racing Beat filter and canister. Its obviously a focal point of my engine bay. What's that silver thing in the background?
Why its my Ebay Special! RX-7 rotor oil cap. $10 and it was on my doorstep.
When we take a look inside we see my RE-Amemiya shift **** and homemade bandanna shift boot! Its JDM-riffic!
I seriously love my FB

If you can, also look and see if you can see an alternator on there. It "runs", but only when everything is on there.
Not everything is on there

I don't think RE-Amemiya makes it anymore. Back when Tom was selling parts he found in a Japanese junkyard I got it from him for $80 shipped to my house from Japan. I suspect it was made in early 90s for the FD.
It matches the interior perfectly. Gray for the radio surround, black for the interior, and orange/yellow lettering to match the gauges.
I just got lucky.
I'll be getting a gray and black Personal steering wheel and a Corbeau Legacy gray and black seat soon. I will consider my interior perfectly finished then.

Hmm, I did think about it, but I enjoy having subtle gray accents here and there to make them look almost stock.
And don't rag on the shift boot! I really dig my bandanna! Its going to be my new "trademark" Every car I have from now on will have a bandanna boot. Hell I should market them.

Well I just don't, I guess its weird. Its the position of the shifter, really. With the "pistol grip" type you can just thwap it with your wrist on the FB.
Spherical shift ***** are more comfortable for me when on trucks and floor mounted shifters, or dashboard mounted rally shifters. Like in the Civic Si.
Its all about position!
Here's the current pic. I'll have more tomorrow after I black out my lenses and taillights.

Well one of the reasons I agreed to paying $1000 for a NON-running FB was the fact the interior was S2 black and the exterior was silver. I seriously drempt of this car as a child. It is my dream car.
I took measurements and the Corbeau Legacy seat is a PERFECT match. The seat will be complemented with a Kirkey rollbar behind it and I'll have Scroth DOT approved harnesses. All for the driver. The passenger seat is in brilliant condition, and surprisingly my driver's seat is in better condition than the passenger. So if the passenger seat goes I'll bolt my driver's to the passenger sliders.
And this is the steering wheel I'm going to get as well.
My car is an entire work in progress. But hopefully she'll aid me in getting laid my senior year. I haven't had any since July, lol.... damn dryspell.

Oh I know that, I have plenty of mojo. But those are stories for the lounge.
Transportation to work the mojo, well that's just something that I have to work on. I can't say "hey, I'll walk over and then we can walk to the movies" now can I?
The wheel is 13inches by the way, or 12 1/2. 12 1/2 is the absolute smallest I can do so that it doesn't cover the gauges. I was blessed just being only 5'10. And yes, the seat does have sliders to slide front and back. I *hate* side mount seats.
