So I'm anxiously awaiting GT5 to come out in November and I stumbled upon Chilicoke's cockpit for inspiration for me to build one. I don't have any experience working with metals, but have lots of wood experience and had to take that route.
First things first. I love my Acura RSX (the predessor to the Integra), but RSX parts are not cheap. My local junkyard doesn't even have any on site, but quite a few BA and DC2 Integras. So I grabbed a passenger seat out of a wrecked DC2. The passenger seat will usually be less worn out than the drivers side. (4) bolts hold the seat into place and it came right out
Here's the donor Integra (R.I.P.)
And now we have the seat removed from the interior
Here's the DC2 seat all cleaned up. The good thing about a real car seat is they can recline, and move forwards backwards with ease. Plus this is a deal at $30 USD at my local junkyard
