Jay I just love your creativity and finding and using what you have rather than spending money on the latest and greatest thing. You have a great eye for photography mate.

cheers dude. i dont have money to spend on the latest/greatest but thats not really such a bad thing. came up with an idea to make the rig more stable. going to give it a try today and see if it works out.

sorry, double post.

tried a different kind of rig mounting. still needs something to make it more stable. with access to materials and the right tools I reckon I could make it solid enough for my G12 to get slower shutter speeds happening.

GoPro has a set aperture, can't remember what it is though. Pretty sure it's 130° angle. I bought one a couple of weeks ago, absolutely love it! One of my best impulse buys :P

Here's a quick time lapse I made with it, please excuse the shitty editing and my horribly ugly mug! I'm working on my editing skills, but I doubt there is much a can do about the face!

I'll upload some photos when my Internet isn't 20gb over my cap!

Edit: I can't embed it on the iPhone :(

yeah, like NA said, its a set aperture and full auto exposure. It has a 170° angle so swapping to another camera would mean less of a view. it was fun to do but i dont think i'll be doing much refinement on it. ultimately having a full quick release setup would be nice as its a pain to get in and out the house and to unbolt, lol. i can picture in my mind the kind of hardware i would need to make it better, but its a cost i cant justify for a few shots. i have a couple of other projects that need to be finished first.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
