All of the pics and most of the vids are up on my site (click here) for those interested. I have still to upload more of the videos but they take forever on 56k :) Sorry for the other 56kers out there having to download them .... which reminds me - does anyone know how to encode mpegs to DivX? I would love to make these vids a lot smaller. Does anyone have the know-how?

btw if anyone is uncomfortable having their number plate displayed on my pics page can they please ASAFP send an email to Andrew's Email (click here), and I'll photoshop your plate off. This would be a slight pain for me but I respect ppls right to privacy if desired.

I have the solution to your problem Pawley - it's a Pinnacle System 'video to USB' adapter .. plugs into your USB slot and it has normal AV in (video, left audio and right audio) .... I bought it 8 months ago second hand but haven't used it cos shortly after I got my digi cam that takes video. It comes with software too .... you can have it for $75 .... it retails (last I checked) for around $300

oooooooooooooooooooooooooh.......

i'll think about it thanks andrew.

gotta mate checkin his source for a wholesale price on a tv tuner video card which incorporates video capture. retail $130. this think will compress the data as it transfers to mpeg4 format.

but if that falls threw, i guess your option is cheaper.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
