flyboy Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 been looking at doing this for the last few weeks. getting an android pc in the car which links to and displays on the OEM head unit. nearly there Just got to get the screen resolution bettter Quote

nissanman312 Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 I would prefer this to gauges everywhere Quote
flyboy Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Thats the HKS Camp2 system which is about $600 Its essentially the same as what I will achieve for about £80. Ill have an android stick pc linking to an obdII reader via wifi input through the av on the OEM monitor with the handbrake and speed sensor bypassed. This will then run carista or torque etc on the inbuilt screen while the car is moving. I had it all rigged last week but have sent back the android stick for a different one as it kept freezing. I also need a better HDMI to av composite converter as the resolution of the one I have is not good enough. Ill post a list of the bits once I have them sorted. 2 Quote

flyboy Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) I was using this http://www.ebay.co.u...edcd1aa57�� Quad core 8 gig stick with the "RK3188 A9" chip but the ROM was unstable so its been returned but the post office seem to have lost it even though its tracked...... I have just had this http://www.amazon.co...i_detailpages00 one cancelled by amazon as its out of stock "T003 A10S" its a single core but has an AV composite out as that will stop me having to use a converter from HDMI I am using a mini wifi keboard/mouse http://www.ebay.co.u...=item2c7f4696f9 which works well and sits behind the sun visor when not in use to use the apps as I havent got the touch screen linked in yet - Dash out again I expect! This AV converter was useless and went back also http://www.ebay.co.u...=item2598181832 So I'm now looking for another mini PC to use, preferably with an AV composite output. The search continues...... Edited February 21, 2015 by flyboy Quote

flyboy Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Could do, but the android pc will allow everything you do on your smart phone through the play store ans all your current apps will be available along with email google maps etc etc. Not really up with the Pi either Quote

nissanman312 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Posted March 1, 2015 Got any further with this flyboy I've got my obd plugged in and had a play with tourqe but that's as far as I went lol Quote
flyboy Posted March 1, 2015 Posted March 1, 2015 I have tried another android pc but again had stability issues. I am busy at the moment trying to get to the bottom of my emission problems and running rich on one bank.. Ill pick this up again once that is sorted. Quote
nissanman312 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Posted March 1, 2015 OK mate look forward to hearing what you come up with! Did you find the tourqe ap had an AFR gauge ? Quote
GeorgeB Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I'm thinking of doing something like this. Did you get it up and running in the end? Any luck getting the touch screen connected? Quote
mattross1313 Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 I am looking into a similar use of the screen too. I did start looking into the Pi, but so far cannot find a nice looking ODBII UI. I am looking to get a reverse cam/video input splitter (seen them in the other Nissan forum). This will then allow for a second video input for gauges. I ran a Mini ATX PC in my 350z which was great, but looking for something even smaller/simpler this time as tech is so small now. Quote
