Aw, so no 1080p HD video games?!? JK, looks just fine with the 480p on that small of a screen. Right now I'm working on getting the full "new Honda" look in my '10 Civic (dual screens, on board MPG, bluetooth, etc). I'm trying to keep the total amount of things that I buy under $100, which should be pretty easy since I'll just basically use my old cell phones, which I have plenty of!

Looks great! Some awesome work going into this wagon. 
Glad the pods worked out well. Keep it up!

I'm using my old cell phones to basically give me features that my car doesn't have that the newer Hondas do. I've got instrumentation using an old phone to track fuel economy already set up using the DashCommand app and an ELM bluetooth adapter. Next I'm going to set up a bluetooth stereo system using a bluetooth aux port and putting another old phone on top of the current stereo.
Hope that clears it up for you!

Gotcha! I've got a bluetooth car thingie like that too, but it's no good in Skiddy, she's obd0 (will convert to obd1 with the built motor ). Doesn't do me any good in the Minion either, she is JOBD ( Japanese ecu - won't interface with the Elm )!
I use the torque app in Mechita. I like your bluetooth radio idea - can you make it a hands free phone thru the radio too? That's cool man! Good stuff
Thanks,
Victor |

I believe you can, I'm just gonna purchase the bluetooth AUX port from Amazon, BMT Wireless Car Stereo/Adapter or something. Product says it will turn the car into a handsfree device, but I'll tell you how it works when I get it  .

Sorry bro, not feeling the entertainment center. How about vtec? Does this one kick in at 80 mph or does it have the E vtec that kicks in at 2500 rpms?

No problem, it makes me smile!
Still no vtec on this motor dude.
Original non vtec head went onto a vtec block that I drilled out the oil passage and added a non-vtec "oil control jet" so I could put off the DPFI / obd1 conversion and just DRIVE THE CAR and figure out other things like suspension, wheels, tires, and maybe body before the built motor goes in.
The block is still naked on the stand, head still needs to be torn down naked. Still haven't settled on internals or anything yet

Suspension. Yes. Going down!
Saving up for ground control coilovers. Only spent $39 on the radio (had to replace the remote) and $115 on the pods, $34 for the rear speakers.
Coilovers should get me scraping pretty good have to get all the other goodies for proper camber as well. That won't be so cheap...
It's only money! And I've got all the time in the world. ...
Thanks,
Victor
