I'm from Melbourne. I’m a proud owner of a 2011 Lancer VRX. I got it about 3 months ago and I love the car so far.
I first stumbled across ClubCJ when I was looking for general information on the Lancer. Since then, I've been lurking the forums for guides and what-not, considering that I don't have a lot of knowledge about cars.
However, I have some future plans on what I would like to do. Among others,
- Install a reverse-parking camera. I have no clue on where to place and conceal the wires. I’m assuming that cars have something like a conduit where wires go from one part of the car to another? I’ll have to read more.
- Replace the stock non-MMCS head unit with one with touch screen and navigation (aftermarket). I’m still researching on which one to buy. I remember reading that not all head units support interfacing with the Rockford Fosgate subwoofer. This is the one bit that confuses me. Looks like I have to read more about that.
- Possibly, install miscellaneous sensors and hooking them up to an in-vehicle single-board computer like a Raspberry Pi for data analytics. I have a background in computer science. So, I'm excited to have such a data collection platform for building mathematical models that would characterize my driving behavior etc. This is one of the bigger personal projects I would like to spend my free time on. Might be interesting to hook up a FPGA module that I have for running real-time machine-learning algorithms as well.
Anyway, it's always nice to be part of a community. Nice to meet you all
