GTO and car photography BS

They need to hire you to make proper exhaust sound clips, you've got it down pat.

 

Hahaha! Sign me up!

 

I had like 5 people convinced I was getting a G6 lol

 

So sick man. Can't wait to see it someday. Proper muscle in a clean lined car!

 

I'm loving it so far. The thing is really clean for its age. Needs a couple little things but it's solid. I got it for a steal too.

 

Those are sexy. I'd love to do a full Monaro front end conversion. $$$ though.

 

I kept waiting for the big rev lol. You do a good job and keeping it sounding clean on a video like that.

 

Yeah I love the "Manufactured by Holden" part lol

I was watching it again and thought I should redo it and have a little throttle blip lol. Oh well.

I can't stand watching exhaust videos- especially loud cars like this one- and they just rev the piss out of it and it sounds like the microphone is exploding.

 

Ya, it defeats the whole purpose of trying to hear the exhaust when its so loud. You did a good job. Im sure we will hear some driving tones soon..

 

Your STI photo's are amazing.

 

Yeah I'll try to get some clips of going through the gears and whatnot.

Thanks!

 

Well this thing it a completely different animal compared to the Subaru. They almost cannot be compared just because they are so different. But DAMNIT, it feels good to have a car again.

Changed the oil yesterday and did some fresh fluid in the rear end. Will do the tranny and do the rear end again this week when my good fluids come in.


A little mod list for the Goat:

Pacesetter Long tube headers
Spintech x pipe/mufflers
DSS one piece aluminum driveshaft (rated @ 550hp)
TruTrac rear end w/ 3.91's
Drag bags in the rear
Line lock
SvedeSpeed over radiator intake
Custom ground comp cam
Dual Beehive valve springs
Titanium retainers
Chromoly push rods
243 heads - port/polished, milled .010
MGW-P Short throw shifter
Drilled/slotted rotors
Wideband AEM A/F guage in the dash
SAP grille

Some not-so-great headlights (May swap out for OEM down the road)

Some non-photogenic Goat action.

One thing I certainly miss about my Subaru was how purdy it looked in photos. Aside from that I really am loving this thing. It's definitely head turner while driving around town. Not to mention all the Goat powers it has.

Must has celerashun veedeos!

 

Might take you up on that offer one of these days! These headlights are pretty janky. I'm in Sheridan, not too far.

I will make a point to do it this week. Consider it done

 

chase them with the drone.

 

That's a good idea and would have been done already if we didn't live 3/4 the state away
