...and what a time consuming task it was! I made a template out of cardboard first then traced the pattern onto raw plastic. I don't have any electric nibber tools, this was done all by hand with a file.
It's mostly done; I just need to use some Lexan polish to remove the scratches in the plastic.
All-in-all I am fairly happy with the way it turned out.
Thanks guys. These Greddy electronics were advertised as "1/4 DIN," but they have different heights and widths! I couldn't figure out a clean way to install these without doing something custom. They wouldn't fit side-by-side in a Toyota DIN pocket either.
I want to do the same thing, for a hks TT and profec b spec2, I got a plastic plate just under my stereo and have a pre-cut slot(1/4 din) that I can remove and those will fit pretty well, maybe I will have to modify it a bit to fit the profec like you but maybe the spec2 is less taller.
anyway, by seeing yours I'm sure it fit good and looks good too.
I don't yet have a boost controller, (which I will probably mount inside my glove box), but my HKS Turbo Timer got velcro'ed into the inside of my DIN pocket. (Leaving just enough room beside it for my Cell phone )
Nice set up... I definately second the vinyl covering idea. It'll be easier to keep looking good than constantly fighting scratches.
Has anyone though of fiberglassing that stupid center panel and splitting it in front of the shifter to make it two pieces so it is not as much of a PITA to put on and off. I really hate how toyota puts the radio so low in the dash.
I was talking about using vinyl like you would cover a sub enclosure or seats with. Just glue and wrap and it will look nice... you'd only need a tiny amount to do that piece. Sounddomain.com sells black heat shink vinyl.
Just removed my 7m and put in a new oil pump after the old one was struggling to keep good oil pressure. The lack of oil killed my old turbo, so while I had everything out I put in a cxracing t61. Everything runs fine-ish now, but it just pours out white smoke out the exhaust, and its not the...
Greetings,
I have been a supra addict since I was 15 and got my first supra, the lack of patience, time, money and well the way life works in general I ended up buying and selling four Supras between age 15 and 20. Fast forward to today age 22, I am now living in Northern California with my...
Hi, just trying to see more info on these hatch visors.
Someone told me, this is OEM, some else told me this is a replica
How do I tell this is OEM or a replica? I assume its replica due to the fact that there are absolutely no markings on it whatsoever to let me know where it came from. From...
Firstly, it's original, I'm the 3rd owner, speedo says 187k miles. Runs good, brakes good. Some power steering belt squeak.
Here's what I know is wrong with it and some parts are en-route already:
It’s got an oil leak or power steering leak, I can’t tell which probably both. Need to de-grease...
Hey guys,
Recently got my block resurfaced. Mine had some pitting and I'm doing a refresh on the 2JZ for my MK3. The resurface looks great, but I didn't realize they they didn't clean it at all! So I have a nightmares worth of metal shavings everywhere. :(
Looking for the best way to get them...
