Oh man, planning it out like that is going to save you so many headaches! I wish I approached my project 1/2 as sensible as you

 

just checking in to see how you were doing with the project

 

@kingman4

I did use Visio. Great for stuff like this...

SPDIF is a fiber optic cable that carries digital audio. My motherboard has a SPDIF out that will run all the way to the trunk for absolutely no signal loss over that long wire.

Processor is a Zapco DSP6-SL. It can be controlled from the PC via USB and has built in crossovers and other processing like EQ, etc.

I will indeed post up pics of the trunk when finished.
UPDATE: It is raining and I can't bring my tools outside to work this weekend

 

Got a new present in the mail today. The Mitsu JDM double din bezel. Ordered it from Australia from user chowetime





I think I will use this instead of the Orbital piece because it looks l\nicer and matches my dash completely...

Brackets are fabbed and all I have to do is wire and mount the amp power and speaker wire.

 

What are you going to do with the HVAC controls?

 

Sorry for the delayed response. I use the Orbital HVAC relocation.

The computer is basically done. I only need a 30 second make-on-break timer to get my shutdown controlled properly. Once I get that in the system I will post some more pics.

 

wow thats cool as hell

 

Thanks!

 

Can you buy just the HVAC relocation?

 

No, you can't. But some people have used the Eclipse climate controls to do it...

 

i was almost going to go with a car-puter. but i went with something more simple instead. nice setup

 

What do you guys think of this computer/ double din setup for the evo. I want to run the evo scan gauges screen for continual logging instead of all the other gauges stuck everywhere.

^^ bumping an old but good thread.

2nd thats waaaay too much $$, for that kinda bread you could build something 10X better.

 

LOL!! I have that same Gundam! My first one.

 

Wow. For some reason I stopped getting notifications about this thread...not sure why.

ItalyIX, did you ever build it?

randomevo, you right that it is a lot of money :-) At the time it was the best you could get for this small of a system.
