Years of constant abuse can wreak havoc on any car's interior, so Bride Zeta III bucket seats and Takata 3-inch harnesses put the factory pieces to rest. Leon wanted to add a few race-inspired touches to the cabin and was able to source a Spoon steering wheel and shift knob combo to keep his hands busy. As for his feet, Razo aluminum pedals make sure they're not left out. A JDM gauge cluster and various gauges keep the information coming whether cruising down the freeway or pushing the car to its limits on a road course.
With both a Mugen- and Spoon-inspired projects complete, what could possibly be next for this master builder? Well, believe it or not he's almost finished with a 240SX build that he's been tinkering with for a few years. Don't expect him to stray too far though, Leon Casino is a man blessed with the H badge, and we wouldn't be at all surprised to find him working on a third CRX build in the near future.
