Not only do I love Honda's I also love computers. A friend and myself are working on a project to put a computer in a permanently. Allowing easy programing of sound and engine management. Figuring how get it all to work the way I think it should is going to be tough, but i certainly think that this can be done. I hope to have a writeup of all of this soon....

Hmmm I will have to check that out...I wonder if the parts are upgradable...plus that I don't want to use windows in it either. Linux is the way I would like to go with this one too.The CB7 Collector.Team Kindred Impulse Member #392 LX Coupe F22A12013 Toyota Corolla S92 EX Sedan F22A1Originally posted by deevergoteComment

check it out. my buddy's bro have a system in his outback. wifi taht can pick up signals on the freeway. and uploads or downloads files or mp3s while pulling in his driveway. gps, engine management and can acually turn on or off your engine light. speed managemt. etc.
most guys use linux maybe use a DMSL OS or a OS that boots up fast.
computer fast enough or big enough u can put in backup cameras and such and acually monitor ur car movent. so when pulled over you have proof.

I was on that site.
I got a lilput 7" screen, and an old laptop. I've never gotten a power source though, so I haven't gone anywhere with it. Sadly, I hope to pick up the project again someday.Comment

I've been dying to do this. Eventually I think I may... but there are a few issues that I have to address.
I can't find a place in the car that doesn't get too hot in the summer, or with the heater on.
I don't know how well a disk drive will do in a car, and solid state is slow.
I'd need to shell out the dough to get a touch screen...
I also want to integrate a touch pad into my center console... maybe even the steering wheel.
They make actual "carputers" for a reasonable price, but that's no fun

I say buy an itx mobo and use the metal case GTA4 came in as the case then purchase some sort of small screen and rig it up thru the HDMI port. I saw that in an rx7 with an ITX motherboard they used the glove box as the case. an ITX motherboard is just 6.5" x 6.5" it would be perfect for what you're doing
They rise their wooden pints and they yoik and sing
And they fight and dance 'till the morning

i would recommend using a non-disk storage device as well, disk drive would be fucked by the everyday bumps and forces the car has.

Yeah, that's among my list of concerns. Solid state storage kinda sucks though...Originally posted by baracuda View Post
