All - As I'm sure some of you have seen in a past thread or two a video was being done by a mate of mine who is trying to do some different things with regards to car film/video etc.

Please take the time to check it out and provide us with any feedback you might have :)

That car is mint :thumbsup:

well done mate.

good video. :cheers:

Yeah I know, first run through i didnt notice it as much but the more i watch it the more i notice it. :(

We'd already done two takes of the drive so it wasn't going to get done again.

Will - 5d MkII i believe.

Thanks for the comments so far. More feedback the better. More so surrounding camera technique, what does/doesn't look good and what people do/dont prefer etc.

The camera work was awesome i thought!

no offence - but the audio was abit out.. maybe unoticable to others but, to me when the music goes into transition to when you speak how the volume goes low/high. I think the volume of the backing track is a tad too loud when your not talking, but its spot on while you were..

my thought anyway!

Good production!

The way the music transition in and the volume went right up is a bit annoying.

I noticed the camera going slightly out of focus on your face a couple times.

Besides that it was quite a good watch.

Hey Ash I feel like it needs a shot from outside the car as it drives passed, so you can get a feel for its road presence etc... lots of detail shots but hard to get a feel of how it works as a whole

maybe some sounds of it hitting 8000rpm as you mention... just free rev it with the mic near the exhaust maybe

I know its as much about the owner as the car but feel you need a bit more car

my 2c

Beautiful car!

It is quite nice to put a face to a forum name every now and then :P and a car, that you so often quote about when your spanking teh newbs.

I can kinda see where your going with it, at least one little squirt would have given most viewers the smile they were after.

And although that R34 is an amazing looking car, it seemed odd to me to be sitting there rattling on about you HachR31 and everything about it, yet having the R34 sitting behind you and only showing pop shots of the R31 briefly. And seeing that you have put an incredible amount of effort into making it look better than it did rolling off the Nissan line, it needed the exposure it deserved!

Also, one thing that really catches my attention in a video, is short shots of the car from the exterior driving by. So you can hear it coming towards you and going away etc.

All constructive feedback from me. Hoping thats the kinda thing your after.

Other than that, Nice video!

Cool video Ash!

Aside from the obvious (needs moar car).. i thought it was perhaps a bit light on technical details. I suppose you're probably aiming it at people with not a great deal of car knowledge, but anyone watching a 10 minute video of an R31 probably knows a bit more than your average Joe!

Loved all the stuff about your passion for skylines etc though, that was tops :)

Hey Ash,

Very nice work on the vid.

Biggest thing i found is, the R34 seemed to be more of the center of attention then 31. Every time you and mick were being filmed the 34 was thier, you should realy have put the 32 thier as it is the center of attention.

Also some more wide shots of the car, just got up to the part when u drive the car and thier is probly only one or two decent wide shots of the whole car.

Defently need some action shots agan showing the whole car. im not shore if you take it to calder or track meets but if you do would be a good idea to throw these in as Well.

Hope this helps

Wow, the car is remarkably... sedate.....to look at anyway... I like your style :thumbsup:

yeah as Nick said more shots of the entire car and a driveby would be good, but eh..good werk.

EDIT

***Love the engine paint colour (I'm jely) but dude, do something about the overflow bottle, like wash it or bleach it even. Better yet spray it black..Oh yeah bodywork is AMAZING!!!***

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
