nakagusukumike Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I have seen Joels S30 on vildinis page which has a completely immaculate 240SX interior swap (Dash/center console). If the 240SX swap turned out so clean then I'm hoping if I convert my car to RHD (I'm permanently relocating to Japan in 3 weeks) that a silvia swap will still be able to fit quite nicely. Then I started to think about it and remembered that my R32 skylines I had when I was there before werent that far off from the silvia. So I was wondering if anyone has done an R32 GT-R or Silvia swap. Please post pictures of any "Hybrid Interiors" - Mike Here's Joels S30 with 240SX Interior: GREAT work!

naviathan Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Beautiful interior. I can't wait until I get that far on my Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sven Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 A guy in Australia made a hybrid dash from a Sentra and added the 240z triple bubble in the middle. It looks very cool (the car itself is awesome too). I think his screen name on classiczcars is nixzcars. -Friendly guy too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
440man Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Does anyone know if there is more documentation on Joels swap? Build photos etc. That is really slick. Wonder what year 240SX the dash came from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryan01 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 ^ ... anyone got any more info on this? i found an '89 240sx shell that i'm thinking of buying just for the interior. the guy wants 500$ for everything. i'd pay that for the interior if it fits like that.

greenmonster80 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 bryan01, Prepare to do a lot of cutting. Took me 1 whole day to get the dash in place. For the center console widening the trans tunnel area and custom door panels. Alot of work so I decided to take a break from it and replace an inner fender instead. So much easier. But agreed a sharp looking interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryan01 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 well i'm doing it, i'm picking up the s13 shell later this week just to gut it and use the interior in the z. i'll post progress pics before/after; i know it'll take a while, just keep an eye out for them.

nullbound Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I'm wanting to do the same dash/console swap in my 280, so looking forward to any details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 oooh, my wife looked over my shoulder and said "I like that interior, why don't you put one like that in the 2+2?" And thusly, it begins... though that wrecked Z32 sitting out back for free kind of has a better, more attractive price attached to it. Anybody ever see a Z32 dash in an S30?

JustinOlson Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 I'm also looking to do a 240sx dash swap. The more info the better. Here are some pictures in this link to the swap: http://www.vildinimotorsport.com/gallery/joelsr240z.html Aziza has a 240sx dash: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=118882&page=3 Regards, Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators BRAAP Posted June 27, 2007 Administrators Share Posted June 27, 2007 oooh, my wife looked over my shoulder and said "I like that interior, why don't you put one like that in the 2+2?" And thusly, it begins... though that wrecked Z32 sitting out back for free kind of has a better, more attractive price attached to it. Anybody ever see a Z32 dash in an S30? I thought of that a few months ago as well. Tape measure told me otherwise. The Z-32 dash is 57 inches across, available space in the S-30 is 50â€. I really don’t see any creative way to make it fit without it looking butchered. Though the Z-32 dash is the same width as the Q-45 dash?.. Hmm… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZXRockie Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 the 240sx dash is nice and all, but vildini charges a ridiculous amount for the work... oh well:mrgreen: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pallnet Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 "the 240sx dash is nice and all, but vildini charges a ridiculous amount for the work... oh well" That's why most of us here on HybridZ build things ourselves, it saves money so we can use it in other areas of the car.....

JDM RICE Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 do you guys see any problem with the e-brake relocation to the driver's side, or would you guys just install a JDM center console? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakagusukumike Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 do you guys see any problem with the e-brake relocation to the driver's side, or would you guys just install a JDM center console? Probably be a push button Line lock anyway for the ebrake function but... either side should be fine. It's nothing as far as custom rigging when you take into account you're doing the whole damn dash too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I thought about the 240sx dash but incorporating the S30 triple gauge in the middle . Its still a dream but ill start some drawings soon . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
