<a href="http://www.automotiveforums.com/sponsors.cgi?http://files.automotiveforums.com/videos/AF350Z_Vol1.zip">AF 350Z Project Vehicle Video (Vol. 1) is now available for download!</a> 5 min 29 sec, .wmv format, 12.3 MB ZIP archive<br>

This includes footage of the car's early days when the only modifications included the StopTech Big Brakes, XERD Headers, Borla TD Exhaust, and a K&N Intake.

Volume 2, which will be drastically more exiciting, will feature the car with nearly 400RWHP kicking Porsches' and Lotus' butts on the track and the entire Players Run '04 trip!

Are there questions that you guys want answered concerning the footage?

Vol. 2 is going to be INCREDIBLE comparing to this :naughty:
We have 5 full digital tapes of raw footage from the Players Run ... and more.

Awsome video. I can't wait for part 2.

BTW Igor, 5 full tapes seems like a lot of footage. I there is good footage that doesn't make it into the second 350Z video, maybe you can turn it into a seperate video based comepletly on the PlayersRun. So far I haven't seen too many good videos on the PlayersRun.

Just a thought,
John.

Excellent video...

Putting that VQ to good use I see :D

Igor (and everyone else)... My 350Zed is better than yours :p
Who else thinks this idea is pretty good? God I love Photoshop.

Now thats the direction your Zed needs to be heading in... In my opinion. Haha

Pretty cool vid.

So what did the Z run in the 1/4 with just the intake/exhaust/headers?

hobbes874
07-13-2004, 01:44 AM
I love the sound of the new exhaust, I bet it'll sound even meaner in vol.2 with the supercharger. Mmmmm Mmmmm

nice video

The video is compiled from 3 different open track events at Putnam Park and Mid-Ohio. I am planning on entering the car into races beginning early next year.

Actually, the 1/4 clips are from when the Z was fully stock with no mods at all. During the 2nd 1/4 run, you can see the time show up as the screen fades into the next scene as 13.69.

With the current setup, the car should run mid- to low- 12s.

Is there any way to get better sound quality? That was my only minor problem with the movie. Other than that it was great.

bout damn time you got it up!
i can't wait for more...
keep in mind that player's run footage doesn't just have to be you... ;)
have you considered putting a dvd together to offer to members?
i'd buy it.
probably a few copies...

Samhain, that p-chop makes the Z look like a Porsche 914 ... no good :nono:

Awesome video! I'm normally just a Euro fan, but the few Zs i've seen look awesome, and yours is even better .. awesome color too!

good luck, i'll love to see the next installation!

Good Video.
I was wondering why does this car smokes like that. Cold enviroment?
One more thing.. For the final car, I believe too many tiny decals make the car looking kind of "carnivaly" should maybe think on some flames from rear to end.

Keep going!

the car looks good so far. great work. the video could be better. there are ways of making the sound better. igor, what camera was used for this or type of tape it was recorded on? dv, digital8, hi 8, dvd, etc. also, whoever edited the video can eliminate the sounds that are unwanted. if u want to know how to fix those things just ask me. hopefully the 2nd video will be better :)

StealthZ32
07-14-2004, 04:14 PM
i agree about the decals, and also, the paint color is kind of bothersome. There must be something better out there, or custom. do a nice custom color with smoke decals

Mshkttck
07-14-2004, 08:16 PM
Yeah. Those decals are ugly.

Fella's when your sponsored... Thats part of the deal. You have to endorse the companies to an extent.

Correct?

I've never been sponsored for anything other than Skateboard Filming, haha.

oh no doubt you have to do what they say but the positioning is all at your discretion. Just saying maybe neaten it up a bit, DEF. some new paint though. Im not feeling that purple like color. little rough haha

i have nothing wrong with the paint, its different from the usual blue paint you always see. i say nice job and way to be original.

igor@af

Just an FYI: the body color will most likely never be changed :)

good i like it as is

the car smoked b/c it was a cold damp day.
go start your car on a cold damp day.

decals are the size that most likely came with products, or were specified by sponsors.

have you guys seen the home page of this site AT ALL?

you'll see what the car looks like with bigger decals on it...

Soyo
07-16-2004, 03:23 AM
that is a pretty nice video. great to be part of af. i would love to see the car, but you guys will probably be anywhere near kansas city, oh well.

I feel you, I'm in topeka.

I love the color, I've never seen another 350z that color, so that in itself makes me like it.

also like said before, decals come from sponsors... also some are just for players run, which you should see in the second video I'm sure

Just so you all know this thing sounds even meaner with the now that its blown. I worked for SR racing this summer when we dyno tuned it and it sounds pretty good. I let Igor reveal the power numbers but watch out, this bitch just might blow your doors off.

Can't wait for the dyno with the supercharger. Great vid guys. Great work. =)
