Best Dash Ever!

[Jackman GTS4]

Hey Guys,

Not sure if this is the right section but i just came across this link in the supra forum.

This guy takes the words 'custom dash' to another level... The pictures speak louder then words..

Whats more impressive this guy programmed the whole display by himself in VB.

Now he is putting this car up for sale.

Anyway, Enjoy!

he should have being offerd a job by Toyota for the next prototype dash design... dont know how practical in a daily driver to do that though..

but WOW...

Thats Awesome

[VB-]

dash is nice, but nothing that wouldnt say its anything revolutionary, what IS revolutionary, is having everything, lights etc switched by the PC, havent seen that done before, looks really well excecuted too

[frozenwaffles]

no that is f%^king incredible!!!

trust me that is revolutionary...getting a pc to open and close relays is nothing by getting all that data and controlling and then displaying it is complexe!

WOW

[Howie]

Man, that is a hellovalotofwork! I half completed my car-pc project and it's not nearly a tenth as complete as his setup. Even if you don't like his setup, that guy gets an A for effort!

omfg

he is a maniac

[bubba]

I appreciate his efforts as I have a working carPC but IMO it's way over the top. Albeit I'm not a programmer so could never do anything like that, but I'm a driver.

[Vik]

God damn!

Gotta' give him credit for that. Now thats innovative, i wouldnt be suprised if Honda try to get the patent for this idea.

Maybe Toyota will lol.

[r33seddy]

thats unreal

looks a bit out of place in a mr2, specially with the stocko steerin wheel lol

a++++++++++ for everything tho, thats one smart bastard

[wilorichie]

Whats wrong with stocko steering wheels lol

It's pretty amazing stuff... I wonder how long something like that took him in hours. I'm a programmer (PHP) but I have no idea how to do that... *goes to learn vb* haha

So what happens when there's the blue screen of death lol....

[NYTSKY]

Knight Rider comes to mind

Awesome job though. the wiring would be a nightmare.

[kevzilla]

talk about wiring......i cant even install a head unit without blowing 10 fuses

If he cops blue screen of death i guess he would have to re format haha and re install windows xp

[gfunkk]

wow, all that on a MR2 ay.... that would have taken so long to perfect... german engineering haha

[-Dukes-]

I wanna see what happens if you spill your drink on it,

[m3gtr]

That was absolutely amazing.

Sign that man up stat.

Jesus christ!! That is insane! Puts the R35 display to shame!

So what happens when there's the blue screen of death lol....

He probably put ctrl, alt and del buttons on steering wheel
