Ipad wont integrate as nice as a 2 din carputer tho.

true the dash will need some customization but , the factory dash wasn't designed the best .

Ipads are easy to install , its the R34 dash lip that you have to clear with motorization, pop out .

I know someone who sells all the prefab parts to setup a ipad or ipad2 in your dash, the little socket, power, cords, and fiberglass pan molded to slide in and out, making the job way easier and not have to re invent the wheel to do it.

Ipads arent huge and will fit , then you can hide all your power FC controllers behind the panel..haha

todays news , Ipads took about 75% of all new computer/pads/laptop sales this year so I dont think it will go away like the DVD, CD, MD TAPES, CASSETTE TAPES , BETAMAX, 8 TRACK, REEL TO REEL, RECORD PLAYERS IN THE CAR, 45's , 78's

and Flash player should work without trickery soon. lol

shame Microsoft and Apple dont merge brains to create a better product, since its the same company more or less . or Linux could just blow them out of the water completely ....way more stable

Except that iOS is based on MacOS X, which is based on BSD, which is almost the same as Linux (although it could be argued the BSD core is more stable).

New Microsoft tablets look good. But I like a neater install than a tablet tacked onto the dash.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.

      I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
