Guest tom sixbey Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 hey guys, i have a 79zx and was wondering how and if it were possible to install one of the talking ladys from a later year car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest livewire23 Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 which cars are you talking about that come with talking ladies? And why would you want a talking lady in your car? Isn't that what wives are for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudge Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 I dont see why not, but with all the sensors that it would complain about, like fuel level - you'd have to swap alot of stuff without problems I think. The ZXT cars have a talking lady, I dont know about the ZX but I'd assume it too had them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72zcar Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 my wifes 85 300zx has the talking lady... the thing never shuts up...why would you want that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tempe_Z Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I think if you do it it'll be like Mudge said and "she" might start whining about stuff. You may have to fart around with some resistors and shunts in place of the missing stuff to trick "her" into shutting up once it's in. Alternately for a bit of fun you could put a big red button on the dash labeled "STFU" that cuts "her" out when you don't want to hear "her" complaining. I think I'd probably do that just for the fun of it in fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest livewire23 Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 hey, maybe I could put a big red STFU button in my car without installing the talking lady. I could hook it up to the speakers to make some kind of low-key droning noise that would drown out anyone else in the car who was talking. Or even better, a door popper with an ejector seat.

Jumbo240ez Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 If you can program what the talking lady says I say go for it... like" Yes honey" or "That's a great idea Honey" or even "God that's a big key, Honey" hahahahahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgia Flash Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I remember those talking lady things were cool for about the first 5 or 6 times that you heard them and then they would get old real fast! I had a friend, when I was stationed at Ft. Benning in the 80's, that had a Chrysler Laser with one in it and she was a biatch to listen to all the time.

Guest Tempe_Z Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 You could probably reprogram it on a limited basis if you really wanted to go to the trouble of reverse engineering it and then switching the chips where all the speech is stored to programmable flash memory. Not impossible by any means. It's like the stupid Billy the Big Mouth Bass singing fish though, there's some linux based software that you can hook up to them via a serial port and make the fish say whatever you want although the actual speech is stored on the computer and the software just controls the movement of the fish and it's mouth. Actually I think if you do some web searching there's a few sites that have hacked the actual hardware on the fish to make it say other stuff without the need of an external computer. Same concept should work here theroretically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest livewire23 Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 hmm, why don't you just nail billy the big mouth fish to your dash, and then hook him up to the sensors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mudge Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 Yeah, I bet this was the sheet in 1980 heh... that and Back to the Future. I like the STFU button idea, I think I'll wire that up to a stun gun put under the passenger seat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
