i don't mind the dash, if I were going to have a dedicated race car, something like that (if it truly weighs 6 oz's), would be nice because all the gauges are angled so you can view them easily, and it probably weighs 1/8 what the stock dash weighs.

the body "kit" looks alot like the RE-A FD with the 4-rotor that is based off of the 12a. Sick FD, but the only way that i'd ever drive an FB that had that kit on it is if it had a 20b with a HKS T51R-KAI turbo (i've seen video of a 13b FD putting down 710 ps with that turbo at ~33 psi, red with three people stuffed into the hatch to keep the wheels on the rollers)

6 oz? yeah......mmk

That is the style dash that comes in "show trucks" like the massive stereo hauling trucks with bags ect... not at all a sportscar dash.....Someone needs to clone the FD dash and shrink it down to FB/Fc size.

I'd like to see a dash that is turned like the supras, just like everyone else said. If the center console area thing where the radio and all that is, was turned at maybe like a 5*-15* angle, it'd probably look good and be pretty functional. Let's see some prototypes!
