Hey that's pretty cool, and pretty cheap! I like when stuff looks factory or nice-aftermarket. Only thing is, I will probably need two gauges total at least... Where for the other one?

 

I got something similar to that but with 3 gauge openings now - pretty cool. planning to use the 3rd opening for a blank that has a switch on it to change from e85 to pump gas as neede
had one before with 2, that was even better. made it myself outa plastic, sheet metal, and some rivets

 

Yeah I figured people must have been making those, cause I couldn't find them anywhere!

I will probably just rock the Wideband and Boost. It seems like that's all you really need. Actually you sorta don't even need the boost but it's just a cool gauge, haha!

 

One of the bad things about the miata interior is a lack of good gauge space. Savington will point out that if it's below your dash line it isn't useful because it's not in your immediate line of sight, so that limits where you can put things and be "clean."

My personal feel on critical gauges:

Wideband
Boost
Oil Pressure
Water Temp

Anything beyond that is just a bonus.

 

I have the DDM works radio surround with 3 gauges. If you want to run a non-stock radio in an NA its the surround you should by anyways.

 

Yep I feel ya on that! I was thinking about an A-pillar mount but I didn't know if that would be too in-your-face considering the small miata interior. I've never been in a Miata with one.

 

I really really really want this, so I can have all my gauges in one sitting where my useless oil pressure gauge is.

But my MS3 basic won't output obdII info :(

I may have to build something to convert megasquirt's CAN protocol to OBDII some day to hack it in there. Or maybe Reverent can retrofit it when it's available.

I may try MSDroid with my phone w/ usb like Soviet got working.

I plan on getting something like this when it finally gets released.



Clarion's Android-running Mirage IVI: a head unit that can play Angry Birds


Run MSdroid on it. WINNING!

 

Holy ****, I missed that! I read Hakan's initial post about maxigauge (and then forgot about it), but I haven't seen that post!

I still don't know if I would want that maxigauge in the radio surround for fear of it being stolen, but in the cluster like that is interesting. I'll have to start looking for another 99 cluster.

 

Same here. Zaphod is winning

 

Poor, poor OBD 1 :'(

 

Got my turbo today, my first big part. It looks sweet!

 

So that'll be the second Android based piece of car audio, which looks like it'll probably be a little more successful than the parrot unit... But really? Android 2.2? That's like putting Windows 98 on a brand new Ultrabook.......

 

Fast, smooth and stable?

 

Its probably better than stupid windows8

and I'm only 1/10th kidding

 

To be fair, I would still go with XP unless I actually needed to address more than 4GB of physical RAM, in which case I don't see myself switching away from Win7-64 (with ClassicShell) any time soon.

Funny, I've just realized that, on the whole, I tend to completely skip every other version of Windows, going back as far as '95 (which I ignored and continued to use 3.11 in lieu of, until '98 OSR1 came out.)

I guess I'll be waiting for Windows One (which, I assume is what they'll call the 9.x release family.)

 

Another Win7 + classic shell user, wow.

 

Make that 3. ^

On a side note why did people have so many problems with windows ME? Had a computer with it. Ran like a bauce until i replaced it with a new one.

 

I was thinking more along the lines of clunky, featureless, and incompatible..

Of course, that depends on the processor that head unit has...
