Gts-R Video Ready For Viewing!

[WanganMidnight]

Post outside the wasteland again and I'll ban your arse you muppet.

Sorry Ash, just thought it would be nice to see the full potential of it considering you would of spent a fortune on it. On the track of course. Kind of like the "Jun Supra Video"....

Again, sorry Ash.

[scarf]

thought it started off good. R34 in the background with 2 guys talking casually. The R34 GTR took too much attention away from your R31.

Your car should have been in the R34s place.

The vid didnt deliver in that you both talk about how wild it is, but you drove it like a grandma. I could barely hear anything exciting when you drove it.

The video for me didnt show off the paint quality either, which Im sure in real-life would be awasome.

8:37 to 8:47... aaaawwwkward silence

[nismokid]

just fkn awesome, buddy.

Did you guys compose your own music or purchased royalty-free music or what? Seeing that video has given me motivation to get off my ass and attempt to do something similar but I don't wanna get sued for using licensed music and it aint easy getting descent royalty-free music!

[KezR33]

Nice video but I agree with the others, needed more action! Not saying anything illegal, but you need to get it down to the next DECA.

[Madaz]

Vu email artists on http://soundcloud.com/tags/dubstep you may find quiet a few willing to give their music away and stuff

also there is heaps of royalty free music too

[typevu]

Cheers Steve I'll take a squiz at it

[Galois]

Awesome vid!

+1 to some shots of the car being driven past to get a better look at it.

Love your work Ash!

As for the video, you may as well have a line up of a 32 - 33- 34 GTR's then go back to yours(Gts-R) as the pre-cursor to them. Not to mention some track footage of yours with hardcore RPM(limiter/valve bouncing), and the on road stuff(non-hardcore) without the pauses. Basically a gamut of footage and influences that cement the Gts-R as the original platform for the GTR's, and if you have some footage with the original engine of the Gts-R. (Like i said a gamut if you can.)

Current video: 7-8/10 (However i will never give a 10/10, as nothing is truly perfect in this world)

Keep in mind, this is only one opinion.

My bad, meant to say pre-cursor there....

[zebra]

Also not the pre-cursor either

Sorry to hijack the thread R31 Nismoid but i need to know....

In some respects surely it must be???? (as it would have involved things learned from making them that could flow into later cars, at least in a few respects)

And i was implying in a general sense of the word, not specific (eg. You could say that most cars before current modern ones were pre-cursors)

I was getting at the Fact that the Skyline GTR has been around since the 60's

the KPalphabet10 GTR was the first from memory.

[Shazza24]

I see, my selective memory is a pain sometimes.

Thank you kind sir for pointing that out, maybe i should lurk more....

The GTS-R was just the homologated version of the HR31, there were "GTR" before and after the GTS-R, however for that 2yr period it was the GTS-R.

There was a GTS, GTS-X and GTS-R in the HR31.

Obviously Nissan didn't design the R32 GTR/RB26 overnight however there are certainly similarities carried across, engines are bolt in/bolt out virtually as an example. So certainly some things were kept near the same. Diff was similar in terms of R200 short/long nose etc.

So certainly some was same, and there was certainly lots different.

A HR31 GTS-R is closer to a GTR than a DR30/KP is to a GTR for instance if that's what you mean?

[Stang]

That made me miss my old R31.

The film is very well shot and edited, most people not involved with photography/film-making wouldn't appreciate just how much time goes into simply setting up shots, particularly rig & moving dolly shots. Let alone editing it together so it flows well, then timing for music to come in and sync with video, etc, etc.

As a few others have mentioned, the music was pretty unbalanced compared to the rest of the clip and quite loud. Some more profile shots in the garage would have been good, eg. direct shots of front, side, rear etc. And it would have been good if you'd been able to merge onto a freeway/100 zone so you could give the car a bit of stick, obviously with the location you had to drive pretty sedately. Exterior shots of same would have been nice to hear the car from outside where it's noisiest.

Apart from those nitpicks it's a nice short film of a very clean car.

To put simply, yes. Zebra has me second guessing myself now....
