Guys,i'm not entirely happy with my Fd interior and was thinkin bout givin it a makeover so was wondering if you guys wouldn't mind postin up some pics of your interior setup including seats,floor mats,gauges,head units and sound systems,dashboards and anything out of the ordinary or whackey that's worth postin up.Forgive me if this is a re-post but would love to see what's out there!Cheers

 

ill play!! i dont know if 'the race look' is what you had in mind, but here ya' go!








im about to upgrade my head unit with a 3000 watt carbon fiber sheet and battery kill switch. should sound killer!

im sure they'll post up, but D CUPS and Rich (GoodfellaFD3S) have really nice set ups (among many others.) look 'em up.

 

Ah yeah,that's what i'm talking bout?is your fd for street??
love the carbon glove box detail!Thats what I meant by out of the ordinary!!!
Where did you get that done mate?also,I have carbon interior but my drivers door plastics are shot to ****!where could I get them,keeping in mind i'm rhd

 

my FD was originally bought for the street but has become more and more race tuned, and much more uncomfortable on the street. in hind sight, i should have bought a STACK dash cluster instead of all the gauges. way too distracting and too many things to keep track of while racing.

the glove box was custom built using a sheet of carbon fiber trimmed to fit the glove box and trimmed to fit the turbo timer and boost controller. it shouldnt take too much to re-create if you get the sheet and have some patience.

as for the RHD carbon fiber cover, im really not too sure. i bought my LHD kit from CorkSport out of Washington. ive seen that question pop up before on the forum, so im sure if you do some research you should find something.

thanks for the compliment. love your set up as well. insanely clean motor.

 

I wish it all was!I've spent so much time on the engine and exterior that I just ignored the interior and only realised it the other day!But would love to have those little bits in the interior.I got a tripod to take 3x60mm apexi el gauges to sit in my centre dash speaker from frank (flyrx7) so that's a start.I'm gonna look into the carbon piece for the glovebox coz it's just damn neat!Awesome man!!!thanks for the photos!
Anyone else playing??????

 

Sure, why not? Here's my interior, I'm going for a silver/blk theme.

 

To balance the silver and black I'm installing these Bride stradia seats with the graduation fabric shown. Notice the rotor shaped handles? Mazda also offered a titaniun e-brake handle and shift ****, which I need to install. I had some custom mats made with the new RX-8 cursive style font. I also have these Feed carbon scuff plates going in.
I'm thinking of rearranging my greddy turbo timer/boost controller and adding in an Apexi DECS tach to match my EL gauges in the FLYRX7 pod. For the rear hatch I'm building a silver carbon sub enclosure with an acrylic, led illuminated rotor surrounding my Jl audio 10W7 woofer.

 

Here's a few different angles. Battery relocated to passenger side storage bin.

 

I'm planning on placing the new tach over the old one, adds 2 more guages (press/temp). I'll have an Aquamist guage in here somewhere before I'm finished also. New boots made from perforated leather to match the Momo wheel will finish the shift **** and brake handles. Converting from automatic trans if you couldn't tell. On the passenger's interior handle, I'm installing an upgraded polished aluminum one wrapped like the hilt of a samurai sword. Be sure and check out my build thread in the nw section for pics and write ups.

 

To each his own, but I really don't like CF interiors. It feels a little to 'ricey' to me. Please don't post pics of exotics with CF interiors now. haha Just my opinion.

 

Very tasty mate!Clean as hell!!!How were the carbon fiber pieces done?Did you wrap them yourself or did you buy them like that???

 

Nothing special, but I noticed the Greddy Turbo Timer fits perfectly inside the lower air vent
Too damn bright to be on the steering column, and I needed room for my wideband

I have my apexi el gauge mounted in there out of the way aswell.Nice neat fit!My R1 din pocket wouldn't take that and my greddy profec II boost controller so went with that.

 

The silver carbon fiber was applied to the stock parts with resin and sprayed with a clear coat. There are a few places that offer this service. Many options include- colors, weaves and can be offered wet or dry. Most people don't explore the possibilities. Here's some holographic samples. Matching your exterior paint or blending your contrasting interior colors are viable choices for going this route. My interior being all black, was boring and cheap looking with all the plastic. Hardly deserving of a magnificent machine.

 

Yeah it's a nice job.I have a carbon dash but it's dull as hell.Few ideas so far.
Keep em coming guys.....

 

I dont really have anything outrageous, my theme was stockish/street yet a bit trackish but not overdoing it. I dont know if that makes any sense but maybe the pics will show what im talking about. lol Pics dont show it but i have JDM rear seat. Some new seats and a rollbar is soon up next to update the interior. Then maybe a new radio that plays ipod and ill probably be done with it for a long long time.

Akiratdk made me my custom din plate. I just installed my blitz power meter/ toggle switch thingie.

Whats the toggle switch thingie for?I'm lookin for a racey look with a little bit of track but that's also comfortable to drive.Nice detail around the din.Also I have an ipod pioneer stereo i'm sellin if you're interested that's almost new.If interested,pm me.

 

The toggle switch is for my turboxs boost controller. Since im on the stock ecu, i cant do squat with it lol

You dont know how many times im just ANXIOUS to flip the switch but i cant.

Im like I NEED MORE POWER!!!!! hahaha

Btw, i bought the hardwire kit for my V1 so it wont be on the windshield anymore lol

You have a thread on your pioneer radio? Im looking for something new meaning modern wise. Show me what you got and we can work something out.

 

Cool.Get an Apexi and get her tuned then flick the switch!!!
pmed bout the radio.

Keep em coming guys,there must be more!!!

 

no one else??

 

MOST FD interior's will look the same. Same idea with the gauges in the center speaker location, aftermarket CD player, mats, shift ****, pfc, BC, blah blah blah. As long as you keep it clean and simple thats the way to go. You dont want your car looking like a space shuttle

 

1. What does the covered toggle switch do?
2. What is the red led light for on the center console for?
3. Is that a push starter on the left? side of the dash?

~CYD

 

Gordon I've never seen those ***** painted that way. I like it. Those are the aluminum ones for like $120 a set right?

 

here is mine, re-did the dash pieces in satin black removed the chrome bezels (faded chrome not a good look) kinda like it without it, and re-upholstered the seats.

 

I remember someone had most if not all of the interior pieces of his FD wrapped in leather with red stitches. Does anyone have a link to those pictures?
