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.

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

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

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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      By Gantai · Posted

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
