Hi Paul, I have no agenda nor do I know anyone affilated with said DVD production. My comment is merely my opinion of this genre of DVD. It is also my opinion that this type of production subtley influences the way some people who watch these DVD's and drive imports act on our roads, and behave in general.

It's been a recurring theme over the last several years, guy watches someone do 200m powerskid on a runway in GTR on private track, same guy goes outside and tries to replicate same on the public road. So, is essence, I'm not attacking anyone, merely stating my belief.

Now, I know we all aren't farking tools that suffer monkey see monkey do syndrome, but alot of "us" are.

Well, see now, that's constructive criticism :D

I guess just reading your first comment it sounded a bit of a beat up, but above is a very fair point.

Anyway, don't want to turn this into a debate. Nuff said from me! :(

I see you're point paul,

However "most" people who want to advertise their product on here pay to do so, and so far the only contribution to this site I have seen from Jet200 and affiliates is a few youtube links to their product with no text attached etc

so if Mark Berry or a V8 supercar goes around a corner fast, the P-platers in their VN commodores will copy them on the road right??

Maybe it was you in the playground with the kids watching Motive DVD if you are that easily influenced.

Let me get this right. We hired a private track yet will are still a bad influence??

Better ban Formula 1, V8 supercars, Hollywood movies, Sitcoms, Home and Away and while we're at it, close all the racetracks down, they are a bad influence.

Even better, lets destroy all the cars in the world just to remove temptation.

You have obviously not watched the DVD at all and making un-educated comments so please dont bother.

To everyone else, thanks for the support. If only people knew how much time, money and effort went into it. If I was in it for the money then I would film sitcoms and gameshoww. I make these DVDs cos I'm a car nut also.

Hope everyone enjoys it when it comes out.

I filmed the R34 cruise and make more than enough mentions about the site. Have also filmed SAU events in the past while making Ignition DVD.

If you think Im not a valuable contributing member of the car scene then feel free to complain to the SAU president and I'll never film anything to do with SAU again if they agree with you.

So, can we stay on topic now please

I just picked up 002. The superlap edition. It was great.

If it werent for this "publication" I would be stuck looking at low qual little screen youtube footage to get my fix of superlap. Ill be getting number 3 and dont mind paying for it either, its a cheap fix.

For f**ks sake, Andrew don't listen to some of these knobs on here whining and bitching for no reason what so ever. Complaning about advertising, are you for real? Is this your site? Then what the f**k do you care? Andrew has done more for our scene then most of you ever will so please keep your stupid comments to yourself.

Keep the DVD's coming bud ;)

Seriously, if you can point me to other import vids that I should buy instead let me know??

True that,

DVD's like high octane, HPI, best motoring have fallen beside the waist in resent years.

Up untill ignition fell threw they were the only current motor based dvd.

hell even high octane was serposed to realese a movie NEVER HAPPEND.

For one i sport andrew and motive dvd, i have being enjoying it a lot and IMO is a lot better then what ignition was.

thanks guys

We're already confirmed for another GTR Challenge in 2010 on the runway and also getting some Touge battles and other make and model battles at the airport too!!

Where's you find your copy? Been going through newsagents everywhere, JB, Autobarn (They're slow as fark) with no luck. Don't like purchasing anything online, so I'll leave that as a last resort.

+1 well said, I'll be buying these as long as you make them - It's great that someone is taking their time and effort to produce something for our scene we'd all love to watch.

thanks guys

You've got my support, just reading that comment makes my mouth water - Keep em coming, can't wait!

Cheers

Steve.

If you cant find em in shops you can buy online at www.motivedvd.com

it doesnt go to JB , Autobarn etc. They are a pain to distribute through so dont bother

For Motive DVD #3 a new distribution plan is in place to make sure newsagents have it. Because its new and times a tough, some newsagents dont stock it so if you go in to one and they dont, ask them to get it in for next time.

Thanks for the support

Andrew

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
