Hey

Basically have been looking around for a while and decided that this was something i really wanted to do.

Still looking for a screen to chuck in but below is what i have planned so far and was looking for some assistance and advise on any modifications that i should/can make to make the build more... well just more

I'll start with the more useful things
PC
Via EPIA Mini-ITX M/B CN13000G w/1G C7 nanoBGA2 CPU, DDR2 RAM, Fanless
Slim DVD Burner, Sony NEC AD-7560A, Black Tray, with a IDE adapter
Corsair Extreme X32 32GB 2.5" MLC SSD (Solid State Disk), SATAII, 240mb/s Read, 170mb/s Write
160W CAR POWER KIT http://www.pcicase.com.au/PSU/160W_carkit.htm
contained in http://www.pcicase.com.au/pc/cs2677mini.htm
and prob just 1gb of ram with an install of xp pro to cap it off

in regards to everything else
using a 600w alpine amp with 60w speakers in both front and rear doors

not quite sure what screen to use, plan to take the entire standard stereo out and replace with a touchscreen that will fill the space but still not quite sure

So yeah any suggestions or comments would be cool

mistake?

Yeah that was a mistake, sorry bout that mind was on autopilot when I was posting this...

In regards to the Amp and speakers I'm fairly unsure on what I want, I do know that I wish to have good crisp and responsive set of speakers and would like them to fairly in-expensive. It should have read 80w speakers for the fronts with something a bit lower for the rear.
600w amp... what was I thinking, sorry should have been something more along the line of 300w but then again, not quite sure on how big an amp I'll need till I find the speakers I want, sigh... too many choices

Speakers really depend on your budget- for crisp clear highs, a component set(with a separate tweeter and midrange) will have better quality parts, and wil have better sound over basic coaxials
