Looking good M

which PSU did you go with in the end?
I killed my OPUS90 recenty and am on a M2-ATX now

Also on a newer Sirf Star 3 16 channel Gps receiver.



And the right hand edge of my lilli's touchscreen has just started to give up on me


And what are you still doing using Mapmonkey, try Freedrive out, or Centrafuse has the newer D5.1 GPS software which does full 7digit postcodes

I went for the Opus 150 as it seemed to be the right choice for the shuttle motherboard I’m using.

Been using mapmonkey for some time… dose freedrive support detonator maps?

[ShawJohn]

yes. its like an evolution of map monkey.

There's also GaroNAV which also uses the Destinator program and maps.

You can find maps on the usual torrent sites

Search for DestinatorSP

Very nice indeed..

My carPC arrived yesterday and it's time make it happen..
I really liked the idea of gauges in the screen..
Is there anyway to do this if you don't have an Apexi Power FC???

Yes, you can get an output from the standard ecu using a consult port reader and a copy of the datascan software which I believe will display a ecu telemetry as dials.

I've got them but haven't yet got round to connecting it up to my CarPC.

Just do a search for consult and datascan, should give you all the info you need.

Thanks Grazor =)

I'll do that and start from there.... Hopefully, I'll be able to connect it by my self...

You could also potentially use one of these (along with a few other bits and peices) as an in-car EDFC style suspension damping adjuster:
