Re: I tend to not think about his little nuts If that's the case, why is it you always referring to them "Methinks he doth protest too much"...
Mini-ITX computer have a mini-itx comnputer in my car, might be able to find a spare PCI video card with video in. (no agp slot tho). I'll let u know if I get it up and running in time for next cruise.
Re: Mini-ITX computer Cool, I can easily build up a mini PC (owning a computer shop), but if someone already hase one, all the better. Actually you can get some good USB 2.0 analogue capture devices now too, so even a notebook with USB 2.0 would be OK. I am sure we can work something out between us for the next cruiZe to deliver some awesome footage.
I've got the USB 2.0 port on the laptop but just need a USB 2.0 compatible camera to hook up to it. We definitely need to do this kind of shoot again. I'll rig up a microphone shield for the next one too.
Re: I've got the USB 2.0 port on the laptop Cool My suggestion for what it's worth, I can supply for the day the camera (composite connection via RCA plug) runs off 12 volts, v handy for your cig lighter. Colour too of course. Also has a good mount that could be adapted to fix onto your tow point or anywhere else you like. Supply for the day 1 x fusion MPEG2 USB2.0 analog capture box. This makes MPEG1 and MPEG2 (your choice) on the fly, so you can have near DVD quality footage. There is no Mic on the camera so no problem for wind noise. Just see me next time if you are interested. This way there is no cost for you, and we have the hardware available most of the time. :thumbsup:
When somone else arranges it. Im working on tech day + cruiZe atm. A while to go yet though. Saving $$ for Goulburn. Full time studentage SUCKS :thumbsdown:
it is only short time suckage ( my god did i really say that??) ... brenton ... when the study is all over you will really apprciate what you have achieved and think of the top paying job you will end up with and all that brass to spend on your zed !!!! black baz .. you may even be able to afford a BLACK ZED !!!!!
A black zed? haha. Barry I wouldnt wanna make your car less special(your great metalic black) by showing you up. :LOL: Red goes faster.
Red, Black, Yellow It doesn't matter what colour. What you really need to make the Zed go fast is some of that fairy dust from Mark's wand. Flogging a dead horse I know
Late pics Sorry people for the late pics. I've been slack At the Winery 300zx used car yard? Car park at Mt G
A belated thank you to Brenton for organising last Sunday's cruiZe. As you all know by now Karen and I were left stranded at Yatala with an apparent failed alternator. Turned out to be just a loose connector thanks to the backyard mechanic who re-installed the alt back in December (Yours truly!). So to make up for our disappointment we drove the cruiZe route today albeit in Karen's MX5 (she was mumbling something about not trusting the Z to go more than 40kms without drama - can you believe it?) It actually got so hot today that we had to put the top up and use the AC full blast. Fabulous roads - particularly liked the Clear Mtn and Mt Nebo stretches. Can't believe I've lived here all this time (20 years) and never driven those roads before. Loved the Village of Dayboro too but we were a bit early for a cold one at the pub. Lunch at Mt Glorious was excellent but there was no view due to smoke from bushfires.:thumbsdown: CheerZ Cliff
Re: So I'm a horse now ?? U know wot they say about horses nuts ... Keep those avatars coming . and Cliff, See you on the Tambo cruize.
Well done Candu I am going to run it again, and you and the zed will have to come. Im glad you ran it, as it is a nice drive. In the zed its that much nicer See you on the tambo cruise!
glad that you were able to do the run cliff, even if it wasn't in .... zed or with the other zedders ... but it isn't it a very special trip ... i will use it for future visitors .. thanks to brenton and rob for the introduction to something so different !! black baz !!!1
a belated thank you to Brenton Geez Cliff, if i didnt know better i would almost place you in the category of traitor to the Zed cause, first you turn up at my place in the MX5 , then you take it on a Zedless cruise...shame shame shame (why didnt you invite me you sod?)
