[ArcherVD] Hi everybody !
Hi !
I just thought I'd do a quick presentation of myself before posting somewhere else![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I've been looking at this forum a lot since I have my 8, which is about a year now, but never subscribed cause I didn't think to have anything to add (plus most of the posts I looked at were old enough not to post anything in them...)
So, I'm 24, from France, and I work in IT.
I work on my 8 by myself for everything except for rebuilding my engine (I hesitated but I finally decided to give it to a shop with a good reputation), and for the bodywork (which I suck at).
You can find some pictures of my rx8 here (I took off the green plastidip and the rear window sticker): link
I have a few projects/mod on/for it:
- A carpc: I am currently building a carpc (or carputer) tu use with a touch screen. The pc will be in the trunk while the touchscreen will replace the navsat unit.
The pc will be used for:
- Sohn system (received it yesterday)
- Ron Davis radiator (on its way)
- Home made aluminium undertray (almost finished)
- Home made oil catch tank (yet to be made by a friend of mine)
- Stainless steel brake lines (should arrive tomorrow)
- Toyosport decat midpipe and catback (already on it)
- Autobahn88 hoses full kit (already on it)
- Engine Tuning using Hymee Pro Tuner (bought but not done yet since I took off the battery to take off my oem radiator waiting as my new rad is on its way)
- Light pulleys (not bought yet)
- Light Flywheel (not bought yet)
That should be all... for now

- A carpc: I am currently building a carpc (or carputer) tu use with a touch screen. The pc will be in the trunk while the touchscreen will replace the navsat unit.
The pc will be used for:
- Audio / Video
- Radio
- GPS
- Engine monitoring (through obd2/can plus a couple of sensors for things like oil temp and oil pressure, etc...)
- Rearview camera (and probably front view too, haven't decided yet)
- Distance sensors (first at back for parking, then maybe all around the car if I find an invisible and accurate enough system)
- Air lift (or something like it) control once I go for it (not until a while tho)
In the end (so not until a long time), the carputer should completely replace the headunit, which I will remove. (Idk yet if I will replace it with simple "storage shelves" or if I'll put something else there)- Radio
