How (and why) to Ramble on your goat sideways
Well uh.. I meant scottyd, but you can take credit for this one and I'll just bug you with questions later while I build the thing.
Your goal in control?
Unfortunately MS3 is out of the question at $600+.
MS2 it is.

MS3x is pretty badass. Guy on turbo bricks who has a generic 245 (Volvo Wagon) with a 2JZ in it. Using MS3x and GPIO board or 2 over canbus to control his trans (shift points and torque converter lockup based on RPM, vehicle speed and load), power steering, and boost.
I'm waiting for him to have his power windows go up based on speed too.

I just found this MS3 for $365, but thats still more then I wanted to ask for... How's support for MS3?
I assume that means it'd be easier to assemble?

I knew I should have started a thread for this..
What do you mean by "not completely stable"? And I assume I'll have to buy stuff other then the actual kit in order to get it running. I'd really like to get this done, and having MS3 would be thuper bitchen', but idk.

If you do go with MS3, you need to get the expander board. It is the board that has all the spare circuits and such on it. It has built in 8 fuel and 8 spark circuits, fan, tach out, boost, vvt, nitrous, VSS, AC control, and a ton of other things.
Basically on the main board you build power and circuits for the cam and crank signals. Then just about everything else is build into the expander board.
MS3X gives me bonerz if you can not tell.
Decided to make a thread instead of continuing to ask here, shoulda done it in the first place.

I'm so confused.

Ran into an interesting article about the cause of the 2008 financial crisis. http://boingboing.net/2011/12/21/com...tute-clai.html

Holy ******* long day Batman. Woke up at 4:15, left the house at 7:00, just now getting home at 11:30. That's a pretty full day of work. My eyes are crossed now, and I can't make them straighten out.

Anybody here a fan, or a listener of hip hop and rap? I'm by no means a big fan, but I do enjoy a lot of older stuff from time to time. I was sort of forced to listen to new garbage today, and made an observation that Lil Wayne cannot make decent lyrics for ****. Out of 3 or 4 of his songs I heard today, the lyrics were ******* ridiculous and retarded. None of it fit into any coherent story or had any meaning. It's like he just picked words and phrases that rhymed and had the correct number of syllables. I remember when rap used to tell a story of life in the hood, or how good the first of the month was. Now it's just a bunch of random words.
Not that much new music is any better. "Artists" are pushed onto people, just like everything else in modern America.

I'm a huge metal fan, however I occasionally listen to some old rap and I agree, the new stuff is absolute ****. I've had bowel movements with more rhythm.

How do I know this guy didn't improperly remove the card, break the slot, and is now saying he received it broke. There is no way to know. So now I have to do a damaged goods claim with UPS. Who knows if I will win or not. Luckily I insured it. But it's up to UPS to decide if the item was packed well enough. SIGH
