Interior pix

Hey I just picked up an FC, and I parted out my Turbo FB. I've been searching all week, but can't find any interior pix of FC's. Post your interior shots here please. I'm trying to get some ideas or options for gauge placement. And if you have a SAFC pics of those would be great.

my general rule is to keep thing OFF the pillar and off the dash if you want to keep them(thieves).... i have my boost controller grafted into the face of my glove box door. my boost gauge on the steering column. my egt and safc is all in the center console no radio ... its one less beacon for the cops to watch me.

i had friend that mounted his SAFC above the center dash vents (s13) and he left his car parked at an event for 10 minutes unattended and it was stolen.

make up som ekind of pop up guage display. like a flip screen car monitor. stick it under the CD player or take out the upper vents.

NVM,,, that would be hard to fabricate...


just mount the guages in one of the DIN slots and get a flip up cover. so when its parked the guages are covered up by what looks ;like a blank piece of plastic.

a couple guys also put the SAFC in the glove box. just punch a small hole in the back for the wire.

I actually dont plan on keeping all those gauges on my dash. I'd like to come up with something like NCross is talking about. The biggest problem I have with gauges down by the radio is, they face the back cabin, not the driver. Once I figure an easy, clean way to do that, I'll move the gauges off the dash.

Currently the only shots I have of my interior. Excuse the dirt on everything, it needs a good cleaning.




Only shots I have with a good view of what you probably needed. To keep things hidden, if you dont use the ashtray, perhaps hide a gauge in there? If it fits anyway. Then the rest on the panel under the radio, if its aftermarket. The rest on the pillar. Other than that be creative and make up your own unique areas.

Sorry to thread steal, but anybody have any pictures of where they mounted their fuel cutoff switch? Mine is currently hanging by 2 red wires in my driver floorboard cause I cant find a good location thats out of the way and hidden, yet easy to reach

Well thats already taken by another switch on mine. It was supposed to help with hot starts by putting a switch on one of the ecu wires, but now it justm akes it so I have to hold it down to start the car (its a momentary on switch). So its really just 1 more safety mechanism to keep theifs from stealing my car.

Autometer Sport-Comp. They come with a red bulb cover that works very well.
