CarPC vs 370Z OEM Navigation System

I agree.
The "plug and play" feature of the A/V input is perfect for a lanbox.

Also to people looking to build a CarPC should know there is "new" technology out to improve the performance as well as reliability.

Soild State Drives (SSDs) are just getting noticed now and the added reliability of SSD would greatly improve the longevity of your rig. (no moving parts) - Intel's new X-25 SSD is only 80GB but has unmatched performance.

Some people might be interested in a HDTV PCI tuner. "HD" signals are broadcasted "over-the-air" and while your on the go you'd most likely be able to pickup a bunch of channels.

As for your videocard. Nothing to highend is needed due to the size of the NAV screen. I wouldn't suggest on-board vid-processing.
