Hello and welcome to the club! Congrats on the rare purchase!

Installing a reversing camera will be pretty straight forward for BRZ's yet more expensive as you'll need to purchase a new head unit that has a big display screen rather than a pixel strip type of thing. Once you've got a head unit that can display a video signal, it'll then depend on what's going on in the back of the head unit, some head units will have a generic female RCA connector so any universal camera will do, some head units will only allow their own branded cameras with special connectors for them. The alternative would be that you could purchase a new rear view mirror with a built in mini display screen that can be used to display the reversing camera. What head unit have you got at the moment Stephen and have you got a new head unit in mind?

That will do it.................

Yeah, BRZ2 uses the Power Magic to power his camera continuously I believe as it's connected to the fuse box rather than the normal 12v socket. Interesting stuff guys, keep us updated with what you've purchased! And good choice Ian, I did look into that camera but was won over by the Mobius in discreetness.

LOL, Ian, you've dropped Lauren in that one ain't you but it's all good, I'd love a test drive Ian! Looking forward to this! Next Pitman! Next time!

Ooooooooooo.......me very likey......anyone care to shatter my hopes and tell me how much?

Lol, I don't know, it seemed like an endless queue / crowd around your car next meet!

I agree with mark, all these cameras looking into the car sounds a bit seedy.....what are you planning? Rab, if you're savvy with your splicing of wires then I'm sure you could splice into the interior light source though you'll need drop the volts down to 5v (assuming that it'll be a 12v source). The alternative would be to get something like the Power Magic Box which connects to your fuse box and can get it to supply continuous power even when the car is off. As for systems with both front and back cameras, most of them would only do 1080p at the front and 720p at the back, and these systems were a lot more expensive. I believe BlackVue did one, if you check this site out, scroll to the bottom and you'll see a list of multi camera systems that are available. And Rob, we all love a bit of Road kill now and again

Awesome pics dude!

It was a pleasure guys! I want a supercharger now....Pitman.....I need to test drive your car to convince me otherwise

Hey welcome to the club and it was nice meeting you yesterday!

I agree.....and you know who's idea it was don't you?

Great meet today, was good to see the usual faces and a new face or two. Good times.....can't believe we were out and about for almost 5 hours, impressive for me

Oh and Faith trust me, I know what I'm talking about You know what needs to be done!

In case people who haven't already see this but the link to my "How To" is here Keith, Jay & Steveo, your sets are with Rob, I know Steveo you were guna pop round to Robs to pick them up so I'll leave that for you to organise. I've given Rob, Keith's and Jay's set, in case any of you bump into him before the Fensport meet, otherwise, Rob will be taking them with him to that meet so you can pick them up! Keith, I'll transfer you back the extra £5 you for some reason tagged on. Jay and Steveo, I've not had any payments yet from you, let me know if you have sent the money, I'll double check again that I've not received anything but Chris from Tarmacsportz did managed to get my paypal account details incorrect, luckily his money didn't have any where to go as those details didn't belong to an paypal account.

Excellent stuff dude! Glad it helped. Still can't believe you drove 2 hours up last night just to pick them up and then straight back down again!

No Sympathy? No Mercy more like It's alright Rob, we can get one of those metal rail slope thingys.....or bowling zimmer frames

Yeah, if you watch it on a big screen or something that displays 1080p, you'll see some artefacting (is that the turn for square clumps/blocky pixels?)

Yeah no prob Mark!

Here are some of my example videos: Night Test: It may not look amazing at night be it's still pretty good for £50 and it's better than a lot of other cameras out there Morning Wet Gloomy Test: Pretty clear in gloomy scenes where there's plenty of light but not glaringly bright Bright Afternoon Test: Starts off a bit dark as the camera might be pointing a bit too high so it's capturing too much of the sky thus adjusting the exposure to suit all the light and not the rest of the scene thus darker images, but as I drive on and start to face away from the sun, the image becomes a lot brighter. Towards the end, you can see its really bright but again I'm away from the sun until right at the end where I'm facing straight at it and it gets mega dark in areas, but this would happen to most dashcams anyways. No idea where the police were going but it wasn't me Raw .MOV Upload to Youtube: Thought I'd upload this raw .mov file to see how it looks, all the vids I've uploaded so far don't actually look that great compared to other youtube HD videos and definitely not true to the raw video's from the camera. At first I thought maybe my editing had lowered the quality but its the same with this raw video that seems to indicated that youtube is compressing or doing something to the vids which is a bummer. But there must be something I can do to prevent this as some HD vids on youtube seem pretty sharp still!!!

Very nice Jude! How come you went with both struts? Wouldn't have just the triangular one do? Tim, the strut that Chris is selling....is it something they've made or is it just the cusco one?

I agree...does look good.....but I want it in white

Well if you are keen, before you do, just post up a thread to see if there are any other interests, may get another lil group buy going if need be.....I know Rob has given his up for someone else....maybe after seeing mine this weekend he may change his mind and want one after all....every little helps but it's still a cracking price compared to what he's got them up on ebay at the moment.

Just a note, anyone interested in booking a night there best get it done asap as they will shoot up big time closer to the date!

But ticking that tick box only puts it on their won timeline and not in the actual GT86 group page....is that right rob?
