Unfortunately I did not see Lock and Load's reminder thread about his star performance until after his show, but thanks to Peter McKay in Saturday Herald's Drive, I now know when Top Gear is on, and fluked the rx8 test thisafternoon. Some friends in the UK had told me it was a pretty good wrap: hard to disagree with them.

For any desperates, I videoed both Top Gear and 5th Gear (Lifestyle Channel 5pm, straight after Top Gear BBC 4.30)

RX-3_13B_Tommo

the Top gear review was very good, got a bit scared when the Stig was throwing it around the track but the results were awesome, equal with the 350Z and the M3 at around $80k less. Thought that on 5th Gear Tiff was a bit TOO complementery about the 350Z, even before he got in the car, I feel that the 350Z is going to look VERY dated in the next few years.

Can anyone wideo capture them to mpeg etc? I didn't get to see either, but would love to.

Cheers,
Hymee.

Can I have a copy of the 5th gear video? If I send a empty video in a package with 10 bucks in it will you do it for me?

As a 'umble farmer, the best I can do is post you the video, Hymee. This forum is about as tech as I ever get - still can't add an avatar, nor attach a pic.

(I reckon my spelling is better than most, tho'.)

Email me your address.

Takahashi, I'm sure I can look after you as well. I'll actally be in Melbourne for Xmas (near Portsea actually) doing the in-law bit.
Are you that way?

The mpgs of both the review of Top Gear and Fifth Gear have already being posted on the forum here, why do you guys still need to go through the hassel of video taping??

Oops - I should have used the search function. :headslap: for me

I guess not all of us have broadband connections. Because of Telstra , we can't get broadband at work. At home, 56k is good enough for email and my limited use of the internet.

However, I did tape the Top Gear segment (on a recently purchased 6 head stereo VCR - we are late adopters!), so if anyone in the Brisbane area would be willing to transfer to DVD, they can P/M me to arrange sending the tape. I'd like it on DVD for posterity, too.

Labrat,
If I recall correctly your are only about 1.5k's from my work, and we have ADSL... but it is not through Telstra

You should actualy be closer to the exchange I think, so there is no reason that you can;t get it. PM me if you need the details about our connection...

Hi MadMax
Don't ask me, ask my partner; he's the computer guru here. I think it has to do with the connections they provided for this estate. I know he has hammered Telstra pretty comprehensively about this. If you want to borrow my tape, drop around some time.

MadMAX

Thanks for that Labrat... I might see if I can do that. Hmmm... now just to find the time comming into Christmas
