do you want just the stand alone screen? flip out or a double din fixed unit?

Really all depends on cost and what you can get. Ideally i want to get rid of my cd/dvd headunit, and 3 gauge din holder and put a 7" touch screen in there, so it will need vga input with a usb output - for the touchscreen functionality. It will then be connected up to a craptop (laptop that is well, crap) that i got from work for free, which will be connected to my haltech ecu so i can get read outs - woo rice, and play music, gps, etc etc of a carpc.

I have been looking at these lilliput screens. I am looking to be setting my carpc and car interior retrim up around the end of the year, performance mods first - which is almost done, around september/october time.

someone on NS.COM said pooraka petrol station has 100RON with up to 10% ethanol!

new replacement for e85?

probably not... not enough % ethanol to make a real differance so you wont see/get any of the advantages of ethanol... oh, and only 100 ron

why is there no f ing cheerleaders at the footy? as if it wasnt gay enough already.

got forced to attend and didnt even have anything to watch all game wtf

don't you go to the footy to watch it? Well, you could have gone downstairs and gotten plastered in the drinking section.

ofcourse i dont go to watch it, got dragged there by my boss who had season tickets n no 1 to take. even she is regretting buying em.

crows won something like 120 to 15 and i heard carn the crows about a million times

heaps weird theres people there that pay the money for a ticket n then just watch it on the tv at the pub there, why not just do it at a bar nearby for nothing

ah yeah sorry Jack. I am after a stand-alone screen that I can have a fibreglass shroud built to custom mount it on a dash. Planning on plugging an EeeePC/Acer Aspire One into it to run full time consult display tools from ODBII. Resolution needs to be around 1024x600 or so, and needs to have a VGA conector (and USB connector to run the touch screen obviously).

Are you planing on mounting in where the 3 gauge holder is ontop of the dash in the 34? or do you have the flip out factory screen ontop of the dash and would like to put a fixed touch screen in there insted?

As Abe sugested before the lilliput screens are very popular with guys doing what you two are.

No probs with getting rid of the CD and 3 gauge holder in the dash,did you want to keep the pocket underneath it or get rid of that too? As i said in the other quote the lilliput screens are very popular for this kind of thing and i would highly recomend them.

Ill see what else i can find for you guys and get back to you both via PM.

Pocket underneath? I have my climate control up top, jvc dvd headunit, then my 3 gauge holder - with 1 gauge in it, right below that is the ashtray etc etc. I am wanting to maybe get rid of jvc headunit and 3 gauge holder, as ill have readouts on the screen, and the carpc for music, etc, and keep the climate control for well, aircon and heating i guess.

i wouldnt mind a 4x4, like a jacked up hilux or something but moving out of home comes first atm

also thinking about getting rid of the 33 already as im growing bord with it so i could get a decent 4x4 maybe or maybe just a normal car.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
