I love what you've done with the car Cara ..that's a really cool unique look but not many can pull it off unless advertising their business because then it usually looks cheezy :( Oh and what sort of power did you get on the dyno?

Hmm,

Exterior = No No on Street, unless parked, advertising or trying to grab attention to advertise. On show cars IN a show is alright.

Interior, I guess its ok just to light up the footwells and thats the max I would do, none of those " 6x9 speaker neons that strobe to your bass" crap.

Just my opinion.

Neons are old hat

I thought the kids are all into led strips these days, saw some the other day on a burgundy civic sedan all I could do was shake my head

I laughed in disgust when I first saw them on Audis, at least bmw's angel eyes are somewhat respectable, still a wank factor

the audi led strip to me is just a one-up to bmw that wasn't well thought out

this is what my r34 used to look like with interior neons. dont get shiny reflective floor matts as they will light up your whole interior. its good and bad if you have dark tint. cops can see inside and wont be all its too dark pull him over. bad thing is when its too dark outside you cant see as the reflection of the neons on the inside on the window will make it difficult to see unless you have your window down.

If you'd switched the neons off you would have made an extra 90kw :) te he he he

    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
