Wow!

Lock up the babies and hide the old ladies.

Those look dangerous

 

You got some nice pics in this thread photoman! Really enjoyed going through all of them. I see your holding it down for the black coupe's huh? I guess I'm going to have to put up some HDR pictures for the graphite coupe!

 

the graphite color is very photogenic, i would love to take some pics of one. my next car will be a similar color. i am trying to decide on a bmw m3 or a new Porsche boxster s. the new boxster is beautiful if you havent seen them since they were completely made over.

the m3 is so balanced and so practical but the boxster is so hot lol.

the Boxster Spyder tips the scales at a mere 2811 lbs., making it the lightest car in Porsche's lineup.

Powering the new Boxster is an uprated version of Porsche's 3.4-liter flat-six, the same engine found in the Boxster S and Cayman S. The version of the 3.4-liter engine found in the Boxster Spyder produces 320 hp instead of the standard 310 hp. The same six-speed manual and optional seven-speed PDK as found across most of Porsche's lineup transfer the power to ground.

Combining the car's increase in power and lightened weight equates to a faster car, as the Boxster Spyder with PDK will do 0 to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds, eclipsing the Boxster S by two-tenths of a second.

 

I must admit, that IS one HOT looking car...... but I'll race you!

 

Just a quick test down a back road, as you can see I mounted it in a horrible spot. Part of the lens is covered by my air filter and part by my grill holes lol. This was near dark so it does not show the quality as good as it is, I just made it home and made a quick run in the car since the roads were clear for the first time in a month lol.

I am just posting the link so you can go to youtube and watch in HD if you want. It is compressed though because it would have taken too long to upload otherwise, the file size for about 12 minutes was over a gig lol.

crap, i converted it wrong and changed it from widescreen to 4:3 oh well it is just a test upload anyway lol.

my damn traction control light kept kicking on with those skinny winter tires so i really couldn't give it much hell unless i wanted to crash the car

YouTube - SRT6 GoPro HD test

 

That supercharger sounds SO COOL !!!!
Neat clip Mr. P

 

Photoman what Software are you using for your video ? I'm using Pinnacle Studio 14 JUST Learning..... I have gotten some really nice HD footage from my GoPro widescreen is awsome Valk is right the SC sounds great.

 

I use 4 different ones:

Adobe Premier
Windows movie maker
AVS4U (great stuff) video editor 4 (will open ANYTHING)
AVS4U video converter 6


The sample above was just compressed to test the file upload, no editing other than just cutting it down to see if it uploads okay.

 

New tires arrived today Bridgestone Potenza 285/35/19

Suspension mod nearly completed for spring

Power mod is completed, tested, datalogged multiple times and working great. The increase in power is very noticeable.

 

Sounds like a little bit of belt slip at 29 seconds in. That darn Code 3!!!

 

yeah my car is slow. i should be concentrating all my effort and lots of $ on performance mods that make little to no power instead of the route I went lol.

 

Or perhaps it just frozen over. Looks cold outside.

I haven't seen so much salt on the road since I passed by Mrs. Lot on the highway leaving Sodom.

 

I hate winter, that was the first time i had driven the car in a month.

they do salt the hell out of the roads here, it looks especially nice when you have 2 black cars driving around in it lol.

 

New pic, CF wrapped the ECU box lid. Took the pics out in the rain so...




I am going to re-do it a little better when it warms up a little more and then work on the other plastic lids, etc in the engine bay.

 

Looks good...plus a little peek of the plumbing for your N20. Interesting how you put the spray on the bottom of the 90 bellow. Now, what is the "T" connection for?

 

The T is for vacuum to the boost gauge and to the meth kit which is boost activated.

 

That looks great ,,,nice job on that wrap I really want to get my rear defusers done one of these days

 

thanks for the feedback.

i bought a set of diffusers and may wrap them, it looks like it will be difficult to do though with all those fins on it. I will give it a shot though, not sure if I can get it to look good lol

 

looks great. it would be fantastic if you could pull the whole ECU box and wrap the whole thing...

I guess its just that little part of me that is OCD and a full box wrap would give it a nice effect.

P.S. I like the video. The SC sounds hilarious. fantastic. except when it sounds like a little girl whining before it really hits a nice SC sound. Either way, great vid. I look forward to seeing more from your GoPro.
