Getting your Go Pro Down
by ellz, 18-04-2020, 02:19 PM
Well got a fb message saying I need to come over on here even though I'm doing stuff with bikes so thought i'd come over and post a video of my last track day.

I used to be in to tuning the old jap **** but it was just too expensive and slow compared to the bikes, so now spending a fair bit on the bike to get it up to spec.

I did Brands GP a couple of weeks ago and manged to get the go pro hitting the floor, so heres a few clips I through together.

venting
by RichiesTrucking, 18-04-2020, 09:35 AM
i am finally upgrading to a 1997 VR4 legnum which has a standard PFL body. as its not worth trying to sell my 2001 V6 i am breaking it to steal the FL body parts for the VR4 (and sports interior). we all know that cold air increases performance so i am looking at cutting vents into the bonnet but i am struggling with type and location. i read that the best place to get air in is just behind the manifold and i want to let air out at the back but with a lip. the idea is to get dense cold air in which will drop into the engine to add cooling but will also push the thinner hot air back and up out of a rear vent. apparently the rear turbo is particularly in need of venting.
i would like a cold air feed to the pod but the battery location will not allow that to happen from the wing and there is little room behind the front so i may feed from the bonnet or replace with a standard air box and sports filter which is less hassle than accommodating the mods that a pod needs on this car

ideas?

Calling all members, I want your pictures!
by sprinter2012, 17-04-2020, 08:51 PM
As one of the two official Marketing Reps of the OJC (Speedfreek being the other one), part of my job is to design advertising media for the club. Such as posters for events, website banners and even flags for shows.

But for them to look top notch, I need you guys to send me your pictures.

I know we have quite a few budding photographers on the OJC, so the quantity of pictures shouldn't be a problem. It's just working out the best way for you all to get your pictures to me.

The options for picture submission are as follows:

1. Email them direct to [email protected]

2. Upload them to an online cloud service such as Dropbox or Google Drive and then send me a sharing link

3. Or if you already use a site like Flikr that allows you to upload full resolution copies, and also allows me to download the full versions too, then you can just post a link to the album on this thread.

Pictures you submit must be full resolution for me to use them properly i.e. not reduced in size or quality for online use.

Don't worry about post processing as I can do that myself depending on what they are being used for.

If I spot any pictures that get posted up and I don't hear anything from that member I may also send people messages individually/post on threads asking for certain pictures if I see ones I think would be useful.

Please note, pictures must be of OJC members cars to be used :thumbup1:

I'll probably badger people when I see pictures posted up for a while just to get people into the habit of uploading their pictures, and then posting the links on here too.

[Image: 315703_10150813782535710_780815709_21015...4984_n.jpg]

Need your input on this bit of damage
by Rabster, 17-04-2020, 05:52 PM
Ok so as some of you know i got some repair work that needs doing, i have the car booked in on the 11th for the whole front bumper to be repainted due to the pearl

here is my dilemma the car may be getting a large amount of attention at the weekend and as such i think i need to do something about the damage quickly even if its just to touch it up for photo use only

here is it from a distance
[Image: e3ee2c17.jpg]

here is it up close
[Image: 4741c4b6.jpg]

i was thinking of maybe some 1k filler primer then a bit of touch up paint but would this be a bad idea as a body shop has already been arranged....
