I got the V.I.O POV.1 I love it it's rather expensive much more then the go pro, but I saw someone with it snowboarding on their helmet...Lets just Say I'm happy I stuck with my decision, I love it quality is awesome it's tiny and it's very versatile

I saw the Go Pro Hero in issue 72 of AutoSalon... ...Think this might be the one I get... ...It seems to also be the only unit in the market that is Mac compatible...

Just a few things keeping me back... ...It says it can only have 2Gb SD cards... ...I've got a few 8Gb SD cards lying around since I changed to a Sony "happy snapper" and had to invest in new cards... ...It seems to only run off batteries... ...I'd like to see a lighter plug power version... ...No "Shock Record" with leading buffer... ...If you're out in the street and happen to be in an accident it would be great if it could start recording with a few minutes pre-recorded before the accident...

There was a duel camera setup (outside and inside the car) a few issues ago in AutoSalon that had the features that I want... ...However it isn't Mac compatible... ...So no go for me...

If the little Hero could take bigger cards and record longer with bigger cards... ...then I would get it...

I think they have a newer model which can read the larger SD cards now, something they didn't tell me when they sold me my Hero off the shelf... probably getting rid of old stock and it was more expensive than if I bought it from Lucas. Oh well.

Picture quality is 'okay' for the price, but I wasn't happy with the sound or the vibration (which I fixed by wrapping gaffa tape around it, I know this isn't hard to do, but another process all the same).

Look closely at the picture (when all is still) and you will see a heat like warp in the picture, sometimes its much worse and I think its electrical interference

Still haven't bought a mount yet... I really want to get one for PI. The clamp style is my preference to clamp onto my half cage. It's a pity there is no one locally who makes one..

Instead of making a new thread... ...I'm going to Bump this one...

I got me a Go Pro Hero Wide MotorSport kit... ...I ordered it from the U.S. and it arrived yesterday... ...It will be coming out on the next cruise for sure...

I use a VIO POV helmet camera which came with a mount which holds the tiny camera on with really strong magnets. Quality is ok. Here is a pic of it on my roof.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
