FoxyRoadster Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 I've decided to leave my roadster's interior gutted and want some pictures for ideas, so I figured I'd start an OIC thread on gutted datsun interiors. I'm still weighing out the parts but I think I've saved almost 90lbs from interior pieces, don't have the seat weight so can't be 100% Quote Link to comment
INDY510 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 94 Honda prelude seat, and an auto-power roll bar: Quote Link to comment
Gary Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 i saw in a street registered drift car once, the carpets were split into 3 parts to cover the floor, they were thick and had a backing similar to a floor mats so the entire carpet was removable in a minute or so for when you wanted, but to reduce a little NVH and make it slightly more comfortable you could throw them back in quick if you wanted i thought it was a cool idea :D Quote Link to comment

metalmonkey47 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) Why not take the dash, frame, and all OUT of the car, and fab up your own dash out of super lightweight Aluminum? Thats gotta be good for some serious weight reduction. My 210.... not a lot to see here. It's gutted but I'll get moar oics tomorrow... Z31 power seats, Prosport gauges, etc. Edited May 15, 2011 by metalmonkey47 Quote Link to comment
