www.ioportracing.com has tons of inexpensive camera mounts. I bought one that attaches to my rear STB in my Z and have taped many hours in-car footgae, looks the same as what you depict. Just another option.

The car is on FIRE!!.. kiddin! 
Well for racing applications you can fix an Anti-lag system to avoid turbo-lag.
Turbochargers display what is known as lag time which is the time needed for the turbine to reach its full throttle from an intermediate rotational speed state.
"When the driver lifts his foot from the gas pedal the ignition timing is altered with sometimes 40° or more of delay (retard) and the intake air and fuel supply mixture is made richer (by spraying more fuel into the intake) . This results in air/fuel mixture that keeps getting in the combustion chambers, through an additional bypass valve, when the driver no longer accelerates. The ignition being delayed, the air/fuel mixture reaches the exhaust tubes mostly unburned. When the spark plug fires, the exhaust valve is starting to open due to the ignition delay mentioned above. Additionally, the exhaust temperature being extremely high, the unburned fuel explodes at the contact of the exhaust tubes. Luckily the turbo sits right there and the explosion keeps it turning (otherwise it would slow down since its intake, the exhaust gases, is cut-off). " - Source - Rallycars.com

yeah! nice Skyline!
great source, diyath! i couldnt have said(cut&pasted) it better myself!
my buddy's 94 MR2 Turbo fireballs alot. and since those cars have the 2 opposite mounts exhaust tips it looks really cool.

You can also get a propane assembly to get that fire affect out of your exhaust... simply push a button, propane sprays into the exhaust pipe, and is ignited with the heat.. and presto! flames... it's an easy effect to achieve, but it's also a bit dangerous, a couple of my friends have done that to their cars... it's great for showing off

On most cars with catbacks all you have to do is remove the cat and the muffler and run a straight pipe from the header. Ocassionaly the engine will back fire and flames will shoot out. Me and my buddy did it with his 91 RX7 turbo for a day, it was bad ***.
