[Rob76]

I wondered about that! I thought it was in case of emergencies during endurance races :D

[Mazz4200]

Lautsprecher, that thing is amazing, the only problem is, it cost about
£20,000 :(

Hmmm.............anyone wanna buy a kidney ?

Kidney prices are coming down. Too many on the market. You should try something with more value. Livers, hearts, testies, etc. The rare ones always collect bigger prices.

[Mazz4200]

Its the only part of me that still works !!

God i'm old :(

[Fordman]

Very nice Richard. Do you make them to order :D

[OPK]

Cool work Richard :)

[the_angry_angel]

Nice cockpit, cant wait to see it finished :up:

Will Fordie buy one?? :DI'm not so sure hes got enough space - hell he's barely got enough space to put that cyberseat he's supposed to be beta testing (*grumble, lucky bastard *grumble*) :D

[Shotglass]

Its a leg-rest... :D

why would you rest your leg on toilet paper ?

danes sure are a weird bunch

[JTbo]

Toilet paper is cost effective (read cheap)
Toilet paper is soft
Toilet paper is capable of eliminating slipping when body liquids are emitted from legs under hard driving, plastic is just getting slippery.
You can use Toilet paper to dry sweat from eyes in longer sessions.
Toilet paper can be used to clean display in case of squeeze accident.

Most importantly:
Everyone likes from toilet paper

Pick yours ;D

Btw, good job with building this :)
I must build something too, when I get rich, now I'm fighting to get my memory upgrade so I would have 1GB, more pasta, less meat :P

[mrodgers]

I do believe it is not toilet paper, though if you have the auto image resize thing on IE it does look like toilet paper with the image resized smaller. If you look at it full size, looks like just foam wrapped around there to me.

Nice cockpit btw.

[Richard Torp]

Its foam off course.. :D Im happy the foam wasn`t brown.. :D

[Vykos69]

Nice cockpit you have there, Rich. ;) Finally ;)

[Neokiller]

ho... :smileypul

Very nice Richard... :nod: good work and enjoy it..

[Richard Torp]

Finally ;)

After 2 1/2 years ... :D

[JTbo]

Its foam off course.. :D Im happy the foam wasn`t brown.. :D

I think that you should use toilet paper in there, foam is bad, all mess stays in it, but if it would be toilet paper you could easily just take one layer out and again it is like new :D

No? Oh well, at least I did try :D

[nesrulz]

Nice work ! :)

[Goldfingiz]

Nice setup! Must be a lot of fun. :thumb:

If I had that, I probably wouldn't leave the house :o

[Matrixi]

I have a cockpit in the works too, not much done yet due to lack of spare time and motivation for making it.

All interior parts taken from a S13. More to come later on..

[Vendetta]

Hey that's my old 240SX !!! lol This is a great cockpit btw, i loved that car, just needed decent power (we get the 2.4L in US...).

Nice work Richard, i wish i had time/room for one of those myself. :thumb:

[Matrixi]

I'm just going to take a photo of my S13's speedos, print it out and slap it on the dash. I was looking for a real S13 instrument gauge but they were around 150 euros here, that left me thinking.. 150 euros for something that doesn't even do anything? No thanks.

Yeah it would be cool if it would be possible to make the gauges work, but I don't have the know-how for that kind of stuff. And some cars have fairly different RPM/speedo gauges for that matter, so it wouldn't propably work out correctly with all cars either.

I will start making the so called "box" around the cockpit tomorrow, just finished making the rails for the S13 seat now.
