I have a Samsung LED series 7 46" and it is the bombdidley.

Hands down the best picture for the money.

When the 3D tv's come out, if they end up worth buying i'll use the samsung for my computer monitor. Nothing like playing combat flight sims on a massive HDMI tv.

Well i found myself at work the other day with a flat battery in the Brumby, the same day i chewed the power cord off the belt sander with the belt sander. 3pm rolls around and dead battery, so i have a McGuyver moment and tried to jump the car from the 19.2v Makita drill battery using the power cor...

nah no pics of construction i got lost in the moment and didnt even think about it.

I agree about the scoop being lame without a turbo, but i needed to try and and see. It's out of my system now, only been on there about a month.

thats where i got the idea from, the first draft of that ute is what inspired my to buy one, and pimp it. H-Top: He's an Bengal 11 months old and 7 kilo. He's RAD. He plays fetch and he's OCD about it, fully thinks he's a dog. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZ5j8K3d71A http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

EJ22 for the time being, it's going to be a streeter.
I'm considering a EJ25 from an STi, but it sounds like a little bit to much trouble with fitting everything in.

Brumby got a new mesh grill!

I got bored yesterday and thought 'bugger it'. i didn't have a spare so there was no turning back. used a saw to cut the inner out, kept the fixtures by cutting the outside sections off with a hot knife. I also painted the white flat black behind the grill. Came out quite well considering i had no p...

I'm planning a full sti conversion soon as I'm able to organise the cash.
It won't have a lift, I'm looking to have a streeter/skidpan/ drag car.
2.2 is a means to an end, i thought the tunnel might be in need of some work.

6mt sti box into a brumby?

Is it possible, behind a ej22?
I had a few searches but search doesn't like 3 letter words.

Nissan Pulsar seats fit, i think a hole might need widening i forget.

N13, N14(maybe), R30 Skyline... cars of that era.
Comfy seats but have a circular hand adjuster.... Lumbar support for driver.

if its already got a screen there just pull the face off and measure it, if a 7inch touch screen goes in your all set. You could build the PC in a nice litttle case to go under the seat. Done It's only intrusive running the wires and mounting the screen, you might be able to just switch the screens ...
