....and I WANT them!!

Ok, sorry to get everyone's hopes up. I found the links to the content, but can't manage to find a way to actually get to the videos. It appears to need some kind of login, but my Japanese is still a bit rusty to say the least. :(

If no one else can figure this out, I have a co-worker who speaks it fluently and his wife is Japanese so maybe one of them can help. Given that the content appears to be associated with Rosso magazine, I would even be willing to pay for the privilege of viewing these. The last one looks kind of 'special' :naughty: :thumbsup:

I managed to create an account by trial and error and even received an email confirmation, but it does not appear to be working. :uhoh: I will not give up on this one though. Especially if the videos are encoded at 500K as the link below each one would suggest.

I dug a little deeper and found this :20 sec teaser video of the Enzo & F1 video. This is becoming torture at this point - I REALLY want to see all these videos - like NOW. :iceslolan

Click on photo to launch the video

Once you have watched the teaser, you may save it to your harddrive using the 'Save Media As...' menu option. :cool:

ER

Apparently you need a credit card...

I have some of those!!! Damn language barriers. :banghead:

We'll get it figured out I am sure. I'm just kind of antsy over the whole thing since I just found them. Looks like it will be great content though. :thumbsup:

I'm drooling over them as much as you are. But if you really can't wait or don't have someone who is fluent in the Asian languages and dialects (Erik), use babel fish, pray for luck, and click this link to register.

www.showtime.jp

On the top left hand side, there should read in English "ADMISSION," click on it and it should open a new window. Whatever it says, click on one of the two buttons that that read "入会する" they look like a familiar "submit" button.

You will be taken to the registering screen where you choose your screen name "ユーザーID" and your password "パスワード" and re-enter your password "パスワード確認"

In the box below it, they are asking personal information. Type your last name in the first text box and your first name in the second. Below that is the tricky part which I'm not sure is asking. Presumably they are asking for your name in capital letters. Another theory is that they are asking for your name in Japanese katakana. Moving on, in the line below that they are asking for your sex click on "男性" if you are male. The next line is self explanitory asking for you birthdate. The next line they are asking for the district in which you live, since most of us don't live in any of these just pick a random one or the one at the bottom of the drop list since they usually stand for "other" on most applications. The next two lines are also obvious to what they mean (as it is written in English). The next line is asking for your telephone number. The last line of that box is looking for your internet service provider.

The next box is credit card information. Choose your card and enter your number and expiration date.

When you are done filling out all the info, scroll to the bottom to the submit button which is on the left (don't click the one on the right, it clears all the stuff you filled out).

If you got away with it, you should be a registered member and have access to the videos.

So, did you actually get the videos?

I think I made it that far through the application process, but when I tried signing in earlier it wasn't working. I guess I will keep trying.

ER

I didn't register. I'm not sure exactly how much money they are going to withdraw from your account.

Try using a babel fish translator to figure out what it says when you don't log in successfully:

Awesome find Peloton, and thanks for the tip on how to save the video.

I wonder if they got any acceleration/ track times.

I plan to put more effort into getting these videos over the weekend. Once I do I'll try to find a place to rehost them, or at least offer them up to the rest of you via email or something. :thumbsup:

ER

I WANT THAT F1 VS. ENZO VIDEO. All those pics are kickass!

Pheloton yor the man i havet wanted anthis so bad in a long time......... which im not shore is a good thing to confess to!

hello everyone.. just registered.. :)

anyway, straight to the point.
About the teaser/trailer posted by Peloton25.
I couldn't get it by doin' save as.. so here's what u gotta do if you also had this problem. Click on the link and let it load in your wmplayer. After its loaded n played simply go to your hard drive at this address:

C:\Documents and Settings\(account name)\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

(where "(account name)" your.. account name (..))

there between maaany many files you'll find a file 06.wvx
you DONT want that one..that's just the "link address" for re-download n watch the video. The file u want is this: 06dvd[1].wvx
Now be careful. If u close the windows media player, this file is deleted so what u hav to do is copy n paste this file into anywhere else in your hdd, AND THEN close the player.
now u got your vid :D
--
Now since the link for this teaser is:
http://www.neko.co.jp/guest/magazine/rosso/movie/06.wvx
then y not trying to increase that number to 07.wvx ?
I did and in 07.wvx there is a 0.43 seconds of a pagani zonda.
Do the exact thing for the 06.wvx file and u hav that one too)
I also tryed other numbers but couldnt get anything..
if u find something plz post it here. :)

One last thing though.. When playing the 07.wvx file, on its tag there is a url: www.autoaxel.com (also japaneze)
I didn't look very much but i think there are some more broadcasting type videos in there too. Give it a try.

Pheloton, man if u get the videos somehow, PLZZ post them..
I CANT WAIT TO SEE ENZO VS F1! :rolleyes:

Great find!

Can't wait for the videos!
Enzo vs F1 looks good.

Ne\/en , I tried to get the files, but opening your link only gets me this message:
<ASX version="3.0">
<Entry>
<ref HREF="06dvd.wmv"/>
</Entry>
</ASX>
I'm using Mozilla. Is the link correct? Get the same btw if I click the photo in Peloton's message.
Could you maybe upload the movie with rapidshare or ezshare.de? That would be really cool.

tried a little harder, used the link in Media player, now it's buffering.....looking good
.....
got them now.
Man, the real material must be really something!

My server's ready to host :P

ahmm... sorry i missed that one out.. all the above instructions are if you are using windows default programs (if u have windows XP..).
Windows Internet Explorer saves all broadcasting files to that directory and then plays them (that's why when u replay a broadcasting movie, its always fast).
When at that directory and after watching the vid once, hit refresh and u'll see the file..

bucciali? did u get it? It's no problem for me to post it, but i think its pretty easy (after u do it once :p )

..there's always yousendit.com :smile:

as for the entire film(s) all praise Peloton25 who said that he'll get them.. :naughty:

I know u'll probably have this one, but just to ease the pain of anxiety to get the F1 vs F60 vids, here's F1 vs Skyline Gtr video shown in top gear. If u want, i can post one more that I Hav..F1 vs Veilside Supra.

The Enzo is not the F60. Never was, never will be.

Greg A

Ne\/en, I got both 06 and 07 DVD files just fine. Going there through the browser didn't work. pasted the URL in media player and no problemo.
now downloading your sendit vid....tanx dude!

The Enzo is not the F60. Never was, never will be.

Greg A

well it's not my saying. i'm no fan of ferraris. Accordingly to top gear (who i "think" they know a thing or two) the enzo is the F60 which they afterwards named it enzo.

bucciali no prob man. I'll soon post the supra drag vid :)

They were wrong. I have no idea why they called it that. The F60 will be released in a few years

haha, don't get all twirled up in the naming now.
did you know they made an F90 years back? Not quite in numerical order, would you say. And an F60 too. Both one-off's, for the sultan of Brunei.

Now, as for F60 being the project name of the Enzo. I am positive that in the entire process from F50 production to Enzo official presentation, the press has referred to the Enzo as F60. Maybe not all the time, but definitely some time and definitely not just one, but many of the car mags, websites and shows.
...just my 2 cents....

For Ferrari, it was always the F140 project during development. Just because the press incorerctly speculated that the Enzo would be called the F60 doesn't make it right to continue referring to it that way now that the truth is known.

BTW: Clarkson is a buffoon - so offering him up as a credible source is laughable. ;) :lol2:

>8^)
ER

dudes dudes dudes.. i said i'm NO fan of ferraris.. give me a break..
That's what i saw from a very popular car tv show! And Clarkson might be a bufoon but he's just the host of the show..I just dont think they would go and simple make out a number/name for the car..

But..what the hell are we talkin about here? Call it F60, call it F140, even call it F16!! I don't care! It still stays behind the McLaren! :evillol:

They only called it the F60 because they thought that the protype running around was the successor to the F50. It wasn't. The F60 will be released in a few years (as i said) on Ferrari's 60th birthday.


Btw, i don't think they made an F60 for the sultan. If you have proof, share it, if not...well....

F90:
It was designed by Enrico Fumia and based on a Ferrari Testarossa. Ferrari had nothing to do with that car.
Why the name F90....it was designed in 1988 (so close to 1990) and F= for Fumia.

Yes, i knew about that, he said the sultan got an F60 too

mini magic,
I doubt it..
If I don't have more infos and pics of that F60 he is talking about, I will never believe that story.

Do we still not have those vids? Im dieing here as for the F60 never herd of it. Is somebody thinking of this car which went to the sultan?

http://www.supercars.net/cars/1996@$Ferrari@$F50%20Bolidex.html
or prehaps this

http://www.fast-autos.net/ferrari/ferrarifx.html

Any pics of that F90?

F90 picture
http://img101.exs.cx/img101/2368/f905du.jpg

That's the F90 I was referring to yes. and the F60, it was the F50 Bolide in that posted link I was thinking about.

so this F90 wasn't made for the sultan, but what about the nice background in the picture? Whose cars are these?

I'm going to guess and say that mini magic was not familiar with that car, or may know it by another name other than F90. I'm fairly knowledgeable on many of the Sultans more prominent customs and I don't believe I have ever heard of or seen that particular car before myself.

its a bertone-designed/modified ferrari 355. the car has now been sold to a collector in switzerland

the extended cars in the back were something called javas...sort of a crossover vehicle that had room for large groups and could handle brunei's roads during the rains and not look so rich as to tick the people off. strange how one of them is wearing chrome mercedes rims but then the sultans hired mechanics were known to cannibalize other cars for spare parts. once the cars had enough removed to no longer be of any value, they were pushed into the ocean, where they are now forming a big beautiful reef.

Hey Peloton, any luck with acquiring the videos? I am very eager to see them.

Any moore f90 pics though it looks hidious? Or sultan specials? Anybody know where i can find moore info on his collection?

Like I said it was designed by Enrico Fumia and based on a Ferrari Testarossa.
Only six were built, all for the Sultan of Brunei.

It can't be a bertone-designed/modified ferrari 355. The F90 were made in the late 80's. The 355 didn't even exist.

If I had they would be here by now. :(

I fought with it over the weekend for a while and now have three logins for that site, but have had no luck getting the videos to download. :disappoin

ooohh man I love Ferraris generally, but theyve had some real bloopers in their time as well.
F90 is so ugly it's almost a little charming.
Looks like something you use to shuffle snow with.

Thats the F90. The F50 Bolide never was made. It was just a shell and was destroyed.

...this is a McLaren thread...

The emails that arrive once you register are unreadable as they are transmitted in Japanese and I do not have an email account that captures or translates those characters. Additionally, there are no links in the registration emails that take you anywhere where a payment is requested. The one link that there is takes you to a main screen of their site.

We're all waitin for u m8... :p :smile:

It seems you would be just as capable as the rest of us, feel free to be the hero for a day if you like. :p ;)

If u klik on the 500k yellow button on this link:

it pops up a new one that asks u for your login/pass (i think).

man.. i d'lov to take all the glory from u, but I don't even hav a visa!

..i'm poor.. :eek7:

In the hope that i might get lucky has anybody got the pics of the sultans yello f1 that went througfh taylor and crawley?

And for the sultan ferrari lovers only check this out have sceen it in the flesh and in my opinion is stunning.

Can somebody e maiil me the preview vid? Or the outhers
Bugattiveyron@hotmail.com

Look there must be somebody who knows somebody on these bords from japan who might be able to helps us with these plese?

Yeah, I know someone. I haven't bothered. I will make the call tomorrow, but only if you promise to go find an online spell checker AND USE IT.

Good news: it's only 3 dollars per month.

Bad news: my contact is not interested in helping me...what is with people these days? I said I would pay for it, but he's still reluctant. Whatever!

I am going to look around and find someone else. It can't be that hard. I plan to go to the Japanese department at UCLA and find a prof or someone. Maybe one of those anime-type robo chicks--although I may end up with entirely different types of videos then!!!!

So hang in there...vids are coming, soon.

Thanks for your effort!

...And be careful with those anime cartoon women, they carry ray guns!

If the problem is just translation, you can paste the link into google and get the page translated for you.

No, the problem is that you have to register and provide credit card info. In Japanese.

Ah, wish I could help, I'd like to see them myself.

My brother's friend who was born in Japan was here with us in Vegas. I had him look through the registration requirements for the videos hoping that he could steer the way to a successful registration.

Unfortunately, the text requires that you be a resident of Japan to sign up for the subscription, which is apparently only about $3.00 per month. You need to have an address in Japan, and if you pay by credit card it must be registered to a Japanese address for verification purposes.

I still don't have any friends in Japan, so hopefully with this info someone else here can find someone to make it happen. I'd also be willing to pay for the service as well if someone can get their hands on the videos for us.
