What did you do with your Z today III

alcheng

Goooood Mooooorning Z-ers!!!

Nice Video Mr.Alchemy

Mr.kenchan, I once remember you have a DIY on restoring the suction cups, and now you lost the love to them?? LOL

kenchan

mr.alcheng- oh craps...u remembered...

in the z there's not much good visibilty so i didnt opt for the blendmount for my V1.
one of the biggest reasons why i dont like suction cups for nav is the same reason. blocks view + rings left on glass.

I usually always mount it outside. Its fun to get creative with camera angles Plus it usually gives a better sense of speed.

indeed! i will be mounting it on the outside of the car too and will use the suction cups for sure.

for cabin shots shooting forward, i want part of me in the shot along with part of the side windows. i think 180degree is wat i would use in this case?

Mr.kenchan, I agree, the Z has good visibility ONLY without mounting anything on the windshield.

I found the RAM Mount will have something very suitable for you. You can mount the camera/device on the mirror-arm and position the camera in front of the mirror.

This is the link ==> RAM Camera Mount

I don't know you are going to camcorder or GoPro, but the part RAM-B-231Z-RVMU and RAM-B-201U-A(Short Arm) is very ideal.

I google camera mirror mount and this RAM brand pop up all the time and its design looks quite promising.

I hope it is useful to you.

Bucketlist2012

We have a road here that runs through Muir woods and out to Stinson beach. Highway 1.

The best line is in your lane and never going over the Line..The Bike's love the road and the groove is in your lane. Also the turns are so tight that and blind that you have to stay in your lane, and also the drop off is certain death..

I have never had so much fun in my life...It reminded me of being 12 and on a carnival ride..You would suck in air on the straightaways and hold your breath in the turns..

I used to run my Z/28 out there and amaze people with it's handling, BEFORE I installed the coil overs, A arms, Hotchkis, ect...

My neck would be sore for week... I can remember being WOT and having sports cars turn around to TRY to catch me..They never did.

True it was in the 1990's and we only had 300Zx's back then, and the Corvette's were still lame, but they couldn't catch me.. Now days the cars are way faster and high tech. I would have the choice of two sweet cars to run.

But try it on a weekend ?? Bumper to bumper, and fricken Winnebago's all over...5 to 10 miles an hour the whole way..

But to be real, I am 52, and I would not drive like that on that road again.

But if you live near Marin County, you probably have run your Z car on that road...Or you should, just NEVER on a weekend.

I finished up my yard work, mow, trim, edge, water; then I broke out the Auto Finesse Mercury metal polish and cleaned up me Berk exhaust. I am in love with everything Auto Finesse! Beautiful stuff! After the exhaust was cleaned up I focused my attention on cleaning the engine bay. Now I have a wheel off and I'm cleaning the wheel wells... I'm not going to want to drive it once I'm done.

During all this time, I have found Berk Exhaust and Auto Finesse products are to me what PSS's and Konis's are to Mr.onzedge.
