and one for shitz and giggles. This is where she goes at night.


Enjoy. Comments welcome.

 

too bad i dont have an R, or else we'd be alike...except i have no turbo, and no garage...

I im in the process of modding my first case...painted in and out, and I have plexi glass waiting to be put in, just havent thought of an interesting design for the thing...

 

4 speed

 

Sweet case! Nice type r, and civic! What you putting into the case? I already see an ASUS mobo, and Pentium 4 CPU. I need some loot, gotta get around to building my first comp.

Haha don't hate the 4spd manual. I rock it like its my job!! As for my computer here are some details:
P4 2.53Ghz processor
Asus Motherboard
Samsung 512mb of PC1066 RDRAM
40gig and 60gig Hard drives
ATI Radeon all in wonder 32mb graphics card with TV tuner and vid in/out
Sound Blaster audio card
19" Viewsonic LCD monitor
MS wireless keyboard/mouse
40x cd burner

Should be a pimp little setup for under a grand (excluding monitor)

Did you just slice away at the sun visor and then run some rubber tubing around the edge? How is it held in place? Velco? Sticky tape?

 

cut it with an exacto. Then epoxied the back and used door weather stripping in grey to surround it. Actually very easy. Hardest part was extending the wiring to go up the A pillar.

 

Cut and splice? Or did you solder the wires? Sometimes extending or repairing wires is very, very difficult.

 

soldered the wires. Worked like a charm

 

You didnt have enough wire to go up there?
hmm...someone in the other vafc mounting location thread mounted their's above the mirror and said they had a foot of extra cable when they finished...

 

what kinda computer setup you got going ?? I wanna start on doing a water cooled processor now that ive finished mine

 

nice r!

 

If you pull the visor down to hard, does the AVCR fall out or come loose? How do you have is secured in there?

 

nice nice

 

I believe he told me it was epoxyed in the hole...so its not going anywhere, I would use velcro or double sided tape, or even caulk, since with epoxy you are never getting out, even if it breaks.

 

Nice project, nice R, and that computer case looks badass! My college roommate would love to see that computer case

 

i need to find a good design to cut a window for myself...and then order a few CCFLs

 

looks goodman, where do you live, bowtree? the houses look really familiar

 

close. I am in Dub C.

 

cut open the poor vents in the back of your computer, lol

 

whats the case look like in the dark?

 

How much did that case cost ya? And where did you get it?
