i thought about that but only one i could find that has VGA/DVI on back was a motorized xenarc (same brand as my touch screen), but it had really ****ty reviews, tons of complaints about the pop-out mechanism failing. is only 6-7" too :/

That is amazing!

I look forward to seeing the continued progress and also the final product.

Thanks I'll have an update this weekend hopefully. Waiting on an add-a-circuit fuse-tap to get my isolator working. Once that's done I can start hooking up all my components to the aux battery and install the dash mold

hey everyone I apologize for not updating this thread. i am still busy sourcing parts for my engine swap and I have managed to get some carbon fiber a-pillar overlays into the car which look great - I'll get a pic up here asap!

my new tranny (4G69) arrived the other day, motor and ancillaries should be here next week!





i think i will make a separate thread once the engine build is underway...but figured i'd let everyone know here who is following my computer build that i'm a bit distracted at the moment sourcing parts for my engine

tomcoulam

yep. it was/is my work.

where did you pick up the transmission? rebuilt or new? price(if you don't mind)? my tranny is on its way out.

Used but not a rebuild... 75,000km. From an auto recycler a few cities over from where I live. I paid $600

tomcoulam

nice! did they provide any information of what kind of car it came out of?

i have a buddy who is currently looking around for a newer eclipse 4g69 for me with as low of miles as possible.
