yeah i see your point. its a piece of hardware purposely designed for that. not like a PC that can be pretty much anything.

well, id love to see it running! you have the factory screen too right?

Yep...I'm gonna keep to factory screens to entertain the kiddies and use the HU for GPS and whatnot,.

I actually picked up a couple of those $99 ZTE V9/Optus MyTab Android tablets...rooted it, and upgraded to Gingerbread. Runs quite good and can almost do everything a carputer does....slower of course!

Thinking of getting them mounted to the back of the headrest for the kids. Or maybe get one of these:

and mount it up front...

i got a samsung galaxy tab (telstra version) rooted and installed gingerbread. wow its a completely different tab now. it actually works with speed!!

those universal mounts are good, but you have to make sure the GPS antenna can get reception for the navigation to work properly

hahah i love it! ghetto style :)

video of the sound please!! and any flames that may pop out of the end too

Will get a vid tomorrow maybe. No flames, a couple back fires on downshift, nothing to epic though.

Plan is to get rid of the stupidly big centre muffler soon too.

Basically wana ruin this car as much as I can so I have an excuse to put a V8 in it lol

Hmm I'm thinking of getting one of these....

Just gotta get the double DIN conversion done...>_<

I thought about getting something like that but I didn't like the idea of having to take my eyes that far off the road to look at the GPS, so I went without GPS. I have a nice Navman that will sit on the windscreen just within view, probably safer.

Cheaper.

No I cant tell u how much :P

of cause not.....that would be helpful!......and theres nothing better than not being helpful is there!!!! worship.gif

Why? You planning on buying one?

I really don't know how telling everyone that I can get it installed for 1/2 the rrp is going to help...esp when its from a friend of mine who owns a car security/audio workshop.

But hey, if it makes you happy...

aftermarket head unit wont automatically select AUX input when you hit the TV button

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
