My SVX may see the road soon...

I picked up the donor diff for the svx a couple of days ago from doug. I kind of made a dent on my trunk on the when I put it in. Since the diff came with the tranny, it was really heavy.
Well, I am going to start getting the SVX ready for the road and hopefully, get it to fun the way I want by... Oct or so. By that I mean interior mods, light mods, HIDs, etc. The 5 speed will go in next spring with a new rebuilt and fine tuned motor to my specs. job permitting.

I started with the rear lights and CD cage today. I am going to open up the extra rear light module and get it ready for Video Based Reverse System and LED mod. The computer is ready for the car and missing only a few tweaks. I can't wait.

On a different topic, I went out to fly yesterday on my new design of Cessna 182 Skyhawk RC plane (total cost of the air frame was around 1.50 USD). It went really well. I might make a new wing for it since I don't like the current profile too much.

I am pretty happy and in a good mood today.

The boys at the mid west cookout saw the computer.

It's espresso PC:

Specs are as follows:
900Mhz, 128MB (I will swap it with 256 if I can find the right type), Built in Vid out, 20 Gig HDD. Running WinXP and boots to XP in about 45 seconds.

Once XP boots, I am running myhtpc (www.myhtpc.net) as the main application so I can get to all my movies/music/pictures/programs witn a couple of touches. It will have a 7" touchscreen LCD screen with 800x480 resolution. I don't have it yet but I do have a 5" LCD and a 6.5" LCDs sitting around.

The computer runs on 14V DC and it also have USB ports for GPS, Radio, TV tuner, etc. The car control module that I will make will most likely be using the USB out. Oh and the espresso PC is 6"x4"x1.5"
