Zennon - nice concept i like it.. esp that first one.. But i wish the shutter speed was a tad slower.

yeah that would have been cool - but yeah - was hand held at 200mm while leaning over a fence while standing on another fence - so yeah - wasn't gonna happen :)

Did like nothing on the weekend and took almost no photo's, but did get a snap of this guy. Image has been flipped vertically as he was sitting on the roof.

I like it as it almost looks like he has this expression of the surprised face of msn messenger (similar to this one :))

Nice one. Not using a tripod?

Should have put the front wheels on a slight angle to show em off ;)

yes i was using a tripod for this. does it not look like it?

I find my wide angle lens is crap in low light so needs a longer exposure as well as a flash to bring the detail up, or else it can come out soft.

thanks for the tip on the wheels :teehee: , I thought exactly the same thing when I viewed it on my comp lol. TBH I was just out trying new settings / methods and angles, didn't expect to be able to use any of the pics as the car was filthy, but to my suprise it didn't show up :D

Zennon some great shots there mate.

ugh I should have known you were using a tripod lol.. forgot about the whole chopped bonnet/engine hahah. There is a bit of blur in the pictures which is what made me think about it.. using a shutter release cable or just pressing the button to snap the photo? If your just pressing the button thats probably what it was from.

Yeah I always forget to check some of the basic things like which way the wheels are facing, what shaddows are on the car, whats poking up behind the car etc etc untill I get home and notice on the pc.. I find myself scanning all over the viewfinder when taking a photo more and more now though, it starts to become second nature.

Just keep trying and practicing thats what its all about :D

Cali if you want super sharp and you dont have a cable release/remote try using timer

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.

      No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
