Can you put up a pic of how you set up your Go Pro to use the external mic? I'm wondering if you modified the standard case or used a different one entirely.

I used the gopro hero 2 with the optional "skeleton case" with a Audio Technica atr3350. you could also drill a hole in the standard case. Ill try to post some pics tomorrow.

Sweet. Nice sound from the Bursch mufflers. How fast were you going?

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. :30-:45 :50-:59 1:05:1:11 1:25 1:35-1:49 sorry... KT |

I made two other videos that day with the mic in other locations (in this one it was taped to the license plate). In the other two it was taped to the bumper, closer to the tail pipe on one and in the engine compartment proper in the other. I'm sure I could try to convince myself that it was the location but I think I would rather try to confirm that this is or isn't the problem before one of my Pistons trys to escape. Any advise on how to test for this without breaking apart the engine. If this is the problem does it mean a rebuild with new rods and bearings? |

If this is the problem does it mean a rebuild with new rods and bearings? tomorrow I will check the oil for metallic essence and put a long piece of wood from my ear to the engine case while the car is running. I will also check the trunk latch. I have always wanted a big four or a six but just not yet.... |

Nice sound! I'd also be very interested to see how the mic is hooked up, so pics please!
