car pc

Post by ttocs »

Has anyone here put together a for a car here ? I have been considering it for a little while now. but not sure how to go about it. I built a computer long long ago but never done one for the car. I am not looking to play games on it as much as to use it for data-logging from my gauges, possibly tuning, and then finally for the use as a wifi/bluetooth terminal to connect to my phone and of course for movies/music. Not sure if a tablet could work for all this but it would be nice but I am not sure where I would mount it at for access to it. I was really planning on using the screen from the system I just got for the video when needed but not sure what would be the best way to go.

My car was 2 yrs before the obd2 engine diagnostic system so I am not aware of a easy way to plug into it but I am checking into it.
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
