Well, i've owned my 300D for around a year now, and am wanting to start using it a lot more, and improving my skills, so i was thinking i might sign myself up for some lessons/courses in photography (because i'm not even going to pretend i'm half good at it :P)...

does anyone have any that they would recommend? (I'm in the Brisbane area) even some online tutorials to read through or something would be great!

Thanks!

Jump on a few photographic forums - there's tonnes out there. Put some of your work up and ask for constructive critisism.

Get a big memory card and take as many pictures as you can - it's digital after all.

If you see a nice photo, e-mail the photographer and ask them about it - "did you use a tripod?", "what time of day was it?" or "what kind of post-processing was done?"

Most shots on sites like Pbase have the exif information available so you can see all kinds of info about the shot.

    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
    • Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.
    • Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".
    • Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
