Not sure if this interests anyone - but details are below.

TAC Minister John Lenders today called on young filmmakers to enter a film competition to raise awareness about the dangerous risks young people take on the road.

The Comp: Make a Film, Make a Difference

Required entrants to submit original concepts to win one of two $20,000 grants to make a short-film highlighting the dangers.

He said the competition was open to people aged 25 years and under and was part of the TAC’s drive to reduce the incidence of road trauma among young people.

The two winners will be given a $20,000 production budget to make their film, access to a mentor or producer and a $5,000 grant to assist with future filmmaking. It is planned that their films would be screened in Victorian cinemas at the end of the year.

FURTHER INFO

OPENS: The competition opens today.

CLOSES: The closing date for entries is 17 June.

Details including a brief are available here.

how many 3fast 3furious movies are people gonna make.

if i had the time to think of an idea i'd love to enter this just for the fun i have when making movies etc

actually, an idea i know will certainly not win: midlle aged non-import driving conservative business men and women, swerving, speeding and weaving through traffic, in car shot of the man/woman looking in review mirrion and *though* "come no barstard let me in" then cuts in front of someone while the car in front actually stops for a red light and BANG car crash. "if you're middle age, and arrogant, you're a bloody idiot"

what am i talking about, that never happens......................... *swear*

I need a new Mac - but am too old :)

Here's two ideas if anyone wants to milk them...

1. Tram passenger alighting hit by car

---------------------------------------------

Scene: 4WD picking kids up from school in inner suburban area eg: Hawthorn. Kids jump in back and are f*cking around (as kids do). Mum looks agitated (as mums do).

Scene: More kids (older and in uniform) get on tram and are f*cking around (as kids do).

Scene: 4WD seen in traffic on major road - can see tram up ahead.

Scene: Kids on tram laughing and joking and generally being little twats (like normal kids).

Scene: Kids in car messing around - mum turns to yell occasionally - can tell traffic and kids stressing her. She overtakes another car with gusto (prob driving an X5 - sweet :)). Can see she closer to the tram now.

Scene: Tram stopping (lights flashing) - show mum yelling at kids again

Scene: Inside tram kids saying goodbye to one kid who is getting off. Show kid stepping out door and... WHAM - 4WD hits kid and he's gone.

Scene: From behind tram show 4WD slamming on brakes and skidding to stop. Too late...

Scene: Emergency services on site. Cops with mum - blanket pulled over kid on stretcher.

TAC Logo & something about paying attention in busy traffic.

2. Slogan for drink driving

-------------------------------

Good for holiday period messages.

Show guy drinking at party with buddies. He seen with beer and also soft drink. Not maxi-smashed, but could go either way.

Ballsy voice over guy - "if you are going to drink and drive these holidays..."

Cut to dude's face looking up (from stretcher) with blood and hollow, lifeless eyes - car in bg wrapped around pole or bus or something. Medics pull sheet over guy and pick up gurney to put into Ambulance.

"... don't get carried away"

TAC logo.

There you have it.

Both billion dollar ideas. Use them and profit!

I want props though - make it that the 4WD has Golgo plates ;)

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
