Where is the mic located? its taped to the license place facing the tail pipe. I'm thinking I either need to give it more space or more foam. Pretty big sound coming from a stock 1.7 with Bursch exhaust. Loved it at first but after listening to it a couple of times I think I need to get less distortion and a smoother warmer sound. When the engine isn't reaving you can hear a rattle that I hope is just the license plate or some other non important part. |

Did you mount the camera to the rear window with the suction cup? Just got my GoPro as well, taking notes..... |

Really like the sound of that exhaust! I discovered a huge hole in my muffler the other day I think I know what I'll be replacing it with!

Like it. However. On my car it would just start me wondering what's that noise and what'll break next? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I can be very paranoid about this car. Every time I drive by a brush fire and smell the smoke I worry that I'm on fire. |

Sounds great under acceleration. Rod knock on decel? KT There are some bad sounds at some points in the video. Worst if they are coming from the engine. Are you talking about the knocking at around 43 sec.? I'm hoping thats the license plate but will investigate. Who knows this "toy" might be a good diagnostic tool. |

Got an external mic for my gopro today. Made a test run. Still working on placement. Thought I would share. Cool!! I have a GoPro3 and am looking at and wondering, how you connect a mic to it. . . (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Do I need a USB adapter or something?? |

Did you mount the camera to the rear window with the suction cup? Just got my GoPro as well, taking notes..... Yes, Mounted it on the rear window with the suction cup. I've also done one mounted on the passengers window inside facing forward and on the drivers side outside facing forward (I tied a piece of string onto the mount and held onto it. I just don't trust the suction cup yet although it seems to work very well). I'm also working on a mount that I can wedge into the jack point hole on the rocker. Good luck with yours, would love to see some videos. |
