I am officially crazy! - Now with more craziness!

[Kruzen]

Damn you guys should've called me. I was in ruston yesterday with the girlfriend and would've loved to swing by and check this out.

Oh. And if you want my old airbag wheel I'd love to see you wire it up so that it goes off the first time someone hits a wall.

Man that'd be hilarious. :D

[garrett]

Thuper thweet guys!



But seriously, thats fucking awesome right there. My girlfriend would freak if I set something like that up in the apartment.

[Kwaaahhh]

Fucking amazing! kudos to you! :thumbup:

For some reason I cannot get the e30 tach to read properly

What are you using to feed it?

Off the top of my head - a saw tooth wave form should to the trick. That should approximate the diff's sensor well enough.

[benDASHDASH]

im officially proud of my old e30, even if its just the steering linkage

who is in the hot seat?

[KenC]

That's pretty fucking sick man. You having people over to your pad before the picnic? I'd like to check that out.

Oh, and the porsche cluster is uber cool. Tach (the only gauge that really matters) is front and center.

It's Sunday night and I'm quazi hammered HAAHA

[Erik]

I bet that just makes you feel right at home driving a Mini Cooper. :D

I don't remember, they have the E30 M3, right?

[DCColegrove]

More to come tomorrow.

:loco:

For some reason I cannot get the e30 tach to read properly. If I feed it any tachometer signal it won't read anything unless I give it a 10,000RPM signal for a V8, then it will just go crazy and bounce all over the place. Not sure why and I tried multiple gauge clusters.

I will probably just install a large 10K tach with a shift light, semi race-ish.

could you just run the porsche motor behind the bmw dash? Maybe print a new screen if the scale is out?

That works, just get an E30 cluster in there! The Porsche one is just too out of place.

[bats]

That is nuts!

I was going to do something similar, with a seat from the junkyard + ps3 + GT5 + Logitech G25.

Props to you. The steering links just blow my mind. Never even contemplated that far.

[e30s52]

how much did all of that cost you?

[Erik]

Fuck yes!

[James Crivellone]

James, my only question is, why doesn't it have an E30 tach?
