A Playstation Inside...

Hey,

I'm at the moment trying to decide the best way about installing my old playstation 2 in my car. Because I'm not the most brainiest when it comes to in car audio and installations I thought I would see what opinons I could get.

Basically I have already sorted out the power pack issue and have enough wire to run the red, yellow and white playstation inputs. What would be the best sort of screen I could buy to use? Does it need a deck to sit in? And would it have the red, yellow and white inputs? Also would it be easy to hook it up to the incar speakers with the ability to switch back to the original deck to play the radio and CD's when I feel like it?

All comments would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

alot of newer decks have RCA inputs.. you can use them with the output of the PS2, so when you play that, set the deck to input or whatever.. then normal for radio/cd's :)

yup, alot of headunits on the market now have AUXILARY input...

just plug the audio from PS2 into the headunit, and the video cable into the monitor/tv.

if u have the old PS2 the best way is to mount it in the footwell of the passenger seat,

or you can do a custom install into the dash infront of the passenger - alternatively

you can buy the new PS2 which apparently fits perfectly into the glovebox.

      Nah, it's not the reduced knock margin. It is a direct mechanical effect of having to initiate the combustion earlier, while the piston is still rising, which starts to exert combustion pressure on the rising piston earlier, making the rest of the engine work harder to finish driving the piston up to TDC where the combustion pressure stops being a negative and starts being a positive. Your modern engine that only needs ~10° to make MBT doesn't waste the other 10 or so degrees of crank rotation. That's almost all of it. The difference in knock margin might go either way. Remember that modern engines to which you are currently comparing the long tractor engine (the RB) are now running super high compression, direct injection, tricky cam control and maybe even cylinder pressure sensors. You're not comparing apples with other fruit. It's apples and sea weed, or some other evolutionarily primitive vegetation. And remember, squish only really comes into play at the very end of the stroke. It certainly does good things, but it is not the biggest contributor to what's going on. It is quite possibly much less important in 4 valve head than 2 valvers also, because there is so much less squish available to a 4 valve anyway.

      Food for thought, a longer stroke motor would need less ignition timing vs. a shorter stroke motor requiring more ignition timing.

      Thanks Duncan, HART is only 10 mins from me (I did my bike license there), it'd be awesome if it ran these types of things.  Sutton Road does look good and they take fewer cars than SMSP which is good.  Surely you have enough land to lay a few million tonnes of concrete and some sprinklers D?

      I thought an engine that needs more ignition timing to make power is going to result in less power due to reduced knock margin? More time for the combustion to propagate -> more time for it to heat up the rest of the mix to detonation.
