After seeing Ash's R31 video I thought I'd give a go at something similar... so me and a mate has been working on a little something on the side for the fun and experience of it and here's the outcome:

Let us know what you reckon... in regards, to content, camera angles, camera technique, what you would like to see, what you didn't like etc etc

Give us some input, I want to make it bigger and better!

Already had some suggestions from guys over at other forums, I know the music is a bit meh.... any DJs on here want some promo? lol

But yeah, it's a learning experience! Hope yous all enjoy it.

P.S. already started gathering footage for next episode - stay tuned! :thumbsup:

You're definitely on the right path as a practice run, as has been said you need better mic work...

Honestly constructive criticism here??? Do more takes if it needs it... As a viewer it feels like you guys got the first takes that were passable and ran with it...

.. So do two or three more takes next time you film.. Reason being is it's great practice for acting, helps you feel a bit more comfortable and confident on camera and makes everything flow a bit better...

The more you do this the better you'll get :) but simply put my personal constructive criticism is this would be perfect IF you the host lil miss r32 had a bit more practice and just didn't seem so.... Hmm. Unsure?

But it will come with time!!!

And my other constructive critic is relocate to Perth so I can give you proper headlight restoration... Other than that the car is spot on!!!

typevu - Do you guys have any future plans to travel and film the modified import street scene in other states? I'd love to come along and be part of it all if you guys came to VIC for a weekend of filming or something. Keep all of us in the know.

If you guys DO go interstate, get in touch with me.

There's always something going on here and if youre after stunning cars there's enough of that here aswel

Cheers guys I'll let yous know if we ever do. Although, you guys in the eastern states already have all the big name automotive tv/dvd/internet shows anyway! lol

The main aim of this project for myself and Kahli was to have fun, gain experience and improve skills - and especially the FUN part as we both have a passion for the cars. And at the same time to show off to world what Adelaide has on offer kinda thing...

It's nice getting seen and complimented and encouraged by professionals in the industry(Mighty Car Mods!) :yes:

and then you get some clowns, some of the post got deleted actually - didn't expect any less of NS.com... http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=490108&st=30

I would happily watch anything hosted by that young lady even if her car isnt to my tastes . Just want to avoid the dodgy sound track and the weird special effects . You dont get a feel for a car cruise when its shown through sepia tones and never EVER speed up the driving scenes . Only aus top gear is that lame !!

But definately keep at it , the car scene on dvd and tele always comes accross as cringe worthy as the hosts tend to worship certain work shops with their skylines on 24 inch chromies more suited to HOT4's mag

    • 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. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
