Nothing special. Its a PRV (Peugeot Renault Volvo) 2.8Litre V6. Not a bad size, but by no means is it quick.
Then again, who needs to go roaring past people to get attention?

Oh my god, you are my hero!

This is awesome!

Is the time circuit photo on your screen a wallpaper background or a screen saver?

If it's a picture image can you post it here so I can download it? I've looked everywhere for that as my background.

If it's a screen saver can you give a link to where I can download it?

And I can't wait to see the flux capacitor. Oh, and the OUTATIME plate is badass.

Donnington! Ahh, yeah. There's usually a few of the club members that go there each year.

Thanks Skippjacks. The image is an edited image of the Time Circuit used off the film. Ive photoshoped it to make it even, Ive then used the image for my screensaver, which I keep in a folder on its own so the same picture is displayed.
Looks pretty bloody cool in the dark too.

Anyway, here's the pic.
Cheers.

Carputer in a DeLorean

Where do you have the computer itself? Did you come to DCS2006? Did you see my carputer? Where are you located?

Nice Work

First off, great job, you've mad an amazing add to an already amazing car, I think they would have done this when they made them if the had the stuff to do it. Second, if you're goin for a whole futuristic look for your computer you could look into getting a Bluetooth hub for the carputer and buying one of these, its pricy for sure, but its cool enough to be worth it. I think I'm gonna get one for my Jeep project I'm gonna start soon.

Thanks.

Hi Dave. Im in the UK and dont get chance to fly to the states to visit DeLorean meets.
I missed the big meet at Dunmurry earlier this year, but do attend some of the other UK DeLorean meet-ups, including Eurotec2007 which was held in Norfolk.

Ive seen your website before Dave, and was very intrigued. My PC would have gone neatly behind the drivers seat (Like yours) but my car has an amplifier and sub tucked into that space. At the moment my pc is still on the rear shelf. This will be changed after Christmas when I continue with this project.

Do you have any pictures of your build Dave? Would love to see how you've built your LCD bezel, and indeed what you've done with the vents etc...as well.
Cheers.

Great Car and Great installation! Super!
Like in our lovely film "Back to the Future".
By the way, do you know, is it possible to buy DeLorean in US or UK now?
