HOT IMPORTS wanted to star TV commercial (Melbourne -AUS).

Greetings-

I’m currently casting for HOT CARS for a series of five 15” second television commercials for a car related product.

I’m looking for HOT IMPORTS and a modified V8 COMMODORE. In the commercial each car is put on show detailed like its being presented at an import car show. Rather than shooting standard factory models I want to showcase the hottest modified vehicles here on the Melbourne import scene.

There will be more glory than money for the featured cars but I thought that this forum would be a great way to network out to the scene.

We are looking at shooting shooting around the 25th July.

If you are interested send me through shots of your ride and contact details to [email protected]

Please direct phone inquiries to Alison Lockwood on 03 9674 4000.

Thanks.

Jolyon Watkins

Free bump to get the Monday morning prime time viewers. :D

Sounds like fun and there are plenty of cars that would meet your requirements. Mine unfortunately is built for go and not show. I call it the Picasso. Looks great from a distance, but is a bit messy up close so I'll decline the offer. I also lack the prerequisite monster body kit to be the archtypical Jap import showcar.

Oh my god...

this is the man who made the Addicted to bass video clip... wow. Check out his portfolio, he's pretty experienced in the car on film area.

This would be perfect exposure for the club and for you're cars, so get off ya lazy arses and get on the commercials!

Guys-

I want to thank you for sending in your shots.

There are some wicked beasts out there- I recieved more Skylines than any other make- A credit to the strength of this forum.

I haven't had a chance to get back to you all yet. We have a pretty tedious approval process between ourselves and the ad agency and the client.

If your're in the final mix of cars our people would have contacted you on friday (23rd).

I'm shooting this week (28-29 July).

4 out of the 5 commercials are for Japanese cars- one is for an aussie V8.

The V8 script is a streetfight standoff between a gang of skyline owners and 1 aussie V8. The single shot will be identical to this shot in the movie Blade. The V8 will be Blade - the skylines / owners creeping into the edge of the shot like the other vampires.

I'm out of money - to pay for these roles- but if you want to bring along your ride (as long as its not white- hard to photograph) and have a bit of fun - write me back on [email protected]

It'll be for about 4-5 hours after hours on either wednesday or Thursday night.

Cheers Jolyon

maybe one of these days we'll get a bit of footage made up and get you to direct :)

Are the ad's you're shooting for Australian airing or for overseas?

I like the blade idea... have to ask tho, at the end do the Skylines beat up the V8? lol or is it going to play out like Blade where the skylines get their hides whooped by the V8? Either way... it should be fun.

Good luck!

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
