thanks for all my leet forum skills i fail at embedding utube vids..

as for why so many people are there, road is called the snake and that is an infamous off camber corner where lots of powersliding/accidents occur hence the audience. Going to include it on my list of must see's/drives when i finally hit the states. Apparently Jay Leno's drive way is just off the PCH and he is up and down it daily in one of his many Bugatti's etc

this thread has too much potential to die. We still need a mod to rename it to "the official automotive video thread" or something along those lines. Anywho, back to the videos

some drift videos for you guys

EDIT: you can only embed 1 video at a time now?

Agree :)

Just saw this last night, it's awesome, here's an embed:

just realised 2 of the links in my prev post arn't working.

thanks V28 for posting the one,

heres the last one

not sure why they're all Ryan Tuerck vids. he's just a cool guy it seems

I usually don't wander in here but this thread is pretty relevant to my interests.

Pat, you asked what gear and rigs are needed. First is a decent DSLR for shooting the video with decent lens. Most of that could have been done with a kit lens but shallow depth of field requires a lens that can really open up. A cheap 50mm "pancake" will work fine there.

I saw a bit of dolly & boom work done in that first video. These can be quite expensive but I'm working on some DIY versions.

Another effect is using a slider. I did a little DIY version in this video but I'm refining it to make it smoother as the jerkyness is too visible.

The rest is up to your creativity and lots, and I mean LOTS of editing room time. There are a lot of subtle things that you do in post production to really bring up the viewing pleasure on a video.

This was just a proof of concept video I put together to test several different effects including time lapse, on car rig, slider, shallow depth of field and generally managing the settings on my panasonic GH2.

I'm glad to see that people are really interested in video beyond just the action shots. I'm always trying to figure out how to capture not only the action, but the love we have for our cars and what we do with them. Capturing the passion and deep connection we have with our cars is actually really hard. The general public wouldn't understand our obsession.

    • 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. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
