The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXIV

ChaseZ · 08-13-2016, 06:39 PM

Got the car wired for the GoPro so I can view it on my head unit while its recording. Not the easiest car to pull component wire in lol

Stereo mics inside the rear bumper cover for killer audio to match the 4K 120

Now it should be plug and play when the new Black gets here on weds.

And for the life of me I still can't get the stupid rear view camera to work properly.

Oh and the 4K Black is going up in the front girl for real birds eye view. Or maybe that's dogs eye view! Session inside for driver shots. If the Session works out may get another to play around with outside, but will see how well this setup works.

Going to use it to shoot a commercial for my watch co.

Hopefully

like i said, this thing is a rocket.

Used to have a blast in my A3

Definitely a little pocket rocket. Exhaust and tune and little sucker really hot above its weight class.

I am waiting to see if Chase likes his. Not a bad price for it to be honest. idk if I like the add-on look or not though.
