lol i like steve's wheel, shit looks comfortable to drive with too.

mac mini running windows 7 too, sick

my wheel is totally comfortable. I like it much better then the stock BUS WHEEL it came with.

lol it was an early morning idea... i just never liked the aftermarket wheels... there really arnt that many options.. but i have to say it looks better than stock... way better.. i like the (i cant think of the name of it) mount? bezel? whatever its called behind the wheel it looks amazing.

i have had a MOMO wheel in almost every car ive owned. For an american car i guess a "Grant" wheel would be another choice but i am a MOMO fan from way WAY back. I hate almost all the crazy "billet" looking wheels i see in like truckin' magazines, to me they are tacky (or i havent seen one i really like yet).

Oh what you are talking about is probably the Hub adapter. Thanks!

HUB ADAPTER THATS IT..

and we have momo on our race car(very comfy) and on my racing kart(that wheel is light and is easy to grip.) and i dont like most stock wheels.. they dont feel right and are in the way most of the time.. if i could find a wheel to match my mach.. .

real stout wheel you would appreciate it if you drove a tahoe with how big the steering wheel is stock bus wheel is an under statement compared to the momo

Shits lookin super clean, Steve. Nice work! It may have been said before, but whats going in the Q logics? 5 1/4 or 6 1/2?

it would be so cool to have a computer in the car.

is there any worry about the HDD?

i cant imagine it would hold up to well from bumps in the road or sumthin

Looking great Steve!

I think I remember you posting somewhere in the Hoopty build that you felt it a necessity to still have a headunit in there even with the computer.

I am gathering computer parts for a Hummer H3 to go along with the PT next summer, and with limited dash space I would have to put a headunit somewhere in the center console.

Would you ever run a computer without a separate headunit, if there was not the need for the volume knob? Is there an issue with the sound card on the computer limiting SQ or anything like that?

Keep up the awesome work!

modded the mac mini today...

i think it will probably not be affected by the vibration when i am done (for those that asked). I will probably do something to soften up the shock to it but it shouldnt be too bad. If it acts up i will get a solid state HD. It will probably be ok though.

PTcary, no, you dont need a seperate headunit i just prefer to use one and have the carputer be another "source". It can be ran by itself and sound just fine.
