My SAU VIC friends,

I need your help - my partner and I are having our wedding at the end of the year, and as such thought it would be a fun idea to film a 15-20 minute film clip to show guests at the reception on the wedding day.

The clip will be filmed by a professional film studio specialises in special effects. The film clip is a short one and should take 1 full day to shot, during this clip, there will be a short street racing scene which will be filmed under controlled conditions with the Police's awareness. So I need some friends to act in this clip and I need your cars.

For those that seen 2 Fast, 2 Furios, this clip will be similiar to that of the first 12 minutes of the film. There will be heaps of special effects e.g. flames, smoke flaring and awesome acrobatic special effects etc. So this clip will be awesome by any standards - if you want to act (and also help a fellow SAU member out) and want your cars in this professional short film clip - please register your interests... after the shoot, there will be a free BBQ with beers/soft drink for everyone paticipant PLUS if you participate you will get a copy of the above clip to keep.

I am after all types of sports cars, preferably Jap Imports... I need to create a Street Drag scene so the more the better, but eventually I will need another 4 cars to race against myself during the clip. For those that can drift, this would even be better. The fil shoot shot should take place between JULY-AUGUST - all participants will be notified before this date with reherals and group meetings to take place at the start of APRIL.

If you are interested, please send me an email with your name, contact details, detail of your car (with a picture is even better) and I will let you know further details and will meet with you for further details.

Plese send emails to: [email protected]

Many thanks - hope to see you all there, I say again this wll be professional filmed with special effects, bluescreens and CGI - make your ride stand out and on film. Thanks all in advance for your help.

Regards,

Kevin

Just an update...

Firstly, thanks for everyone's PM - good interest so far...

I had given a wrong email - corrected, sorry fellas.

I got my licenseback Friday - all good.

It will not be a street drag... we'll be driving slowly, but the film will be sped up.

I'm going to speak to the cops and police... if this doesn't work, we can always do something else...

It will be really good - fo those that are interested, please send me emails.

And of course I'll be there... we'll be organising group meetings soon, so I will need names ASAP.

Thanks all.

OK fellas, I've just spoken to the local area cop station and have spoken to a few people about this idea...

Some slight changes... I hope this will go down well with everyone...

The clip will be just about a group of cars going on a cruise up GOR and some other suburban areas... that's it... but the quality of the shoot will be superior and stylish... so far I've got 5 people interested on SAU... Please PM or email me the above details and I'll book you in...

Should be great... a formal group meeting will be in around 2 weeks.

Cheers,

Kevin

Mate if this is played at a wedding you will look like the biggest tool to everyone.

And may i ask what has a video like this got to do with a wedding?

Fair question mate, and I see your point.

However, I won't look like a fool as there's a storyline this all of this... not just a matter of showing off Skylines and sport cars alike for the sake of it during a wedding...

There'll be a storyline to it... basically, I'm crusing with my boys then I meet my wife, then we hook up and then blah blah all that romantic stuff... the car scene will only a be a couple of minutes but just need some friends to help out that's all.

Like I said, good opportunity for everyone to meet up and also good to put some cars on a professional clip that everyone can get a copy of... so yeah, that's the basis of it... let me know if there's anyone else who's interested.

Thanks,

Kevin

u gotta make it more action packed dude.....

like perhaps u know put some fighting scenes in it - like to show that youd do anything for her

perhaps like some people in commodores are like circling around her - doing wheelies and shit...and u and ur skyline friends pop out of no where

fighting starts like batman....POW!!! BIFF!!! KAPAOW!!!!! WANK!!!!

u get the girl

and as the credits are rolling...everyone is dancing like this:

:(:):):):banana::banana:

lol.... yeah, could work but too dramatic for me... lol

So yeah, you guys get the idea...

i just spoke to the cops and they've agreed to participate in this...

They've promised me that if we want to go with the drag racing angle, they'll be more than happy to provide chase cars and even impound the cars involved for that realism you just don't see in the movies

ok give him a break already

UPDATE.

Firstly and foremost, thanks to everyone that has send me their emails and PM's ... everyone has been responded to... I know have nearly what I need... a couple more and we're set... thanks so much for your interests...

I just spoke to my cameraman today and spoke to him about the script... he likes it and asked me to get a group together ASAP then meet up to bounce ideas around before organising a meeting with the director/camera crew...

Please send me your interests ASAP as this group will be finalised by the end of this week with group meetings to begin next week.

After this meeting all participants will be given a script and also a storyboard of what and how the clip will be filmed.

And the BBQ will be tops - most of all you guys are helping me with the clip and it will also be fun.

We'll talk soon - thanks all... please email / PM me now if you're interested...

Also, if you can supply background extras willing to participate as CROWDS this will be good too...

Regards,

Kevin

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
