Recommended Posts

dohmar -as for the repeat of some members cars in the last calendar - that was because there wasnt as much notice and not many people submitted their photos. I DID use at least ONE photo of every car that was submitted - to fill the gaps, I had to re-use some members cars - had to fill the gaps somehow.

As for this time, well theres alot more notice, and alot more planning is gong nto it, so it wont be like that this time!

coolness, hopefully we can find someone with an early model gtr and a 35 *nods* :P

Last calendar was awesome, put me down for two again :P

-D

Be happy to have a calender, hey flick can we maybe vote on the photos used for the 2010 one ? just a suggestion ?

and get a deadline for photo submission ? not to be too picky but some of the photos used were low resolution ones when the hi res were provided for use ?

could have been a designer error or printer error . but hey thanks for putting up your hand to do one :banana:

hey I have some nice shots of luke blowing his chunky dinner on the sidewalk in kadina for the back cover ...lol

kidding!!!! Luke

Hey troy. Cheers for the suggestion, but as for the voting, well im going to avoid that - or it will just turn messy and turn into arguments and dissagreements. I will just do it how i did last time. What looks best on the printers screen, is what will be used..

As for a deadline, well as yet there is none, it wont go to print for AT LEAST 6 weeks, so I guess thats the deadline, gives people pllllenty of time to organize photosl. Take time people - go out on a sunny day, experiment with angles, backgrounds etc. That said i DONT want photoshopped photos, pure natural photos are best, thus why some submitted last time werent used, they were too edited and well.. tacky looking, not what SAU is about. Show us YOUR car, not what u can do to it with a bit of editing..

The photos i used last time troy, were the best i had to work with out of what was submitted. Yes, some high res ones were left out, they just didnt look right when blown up on the printers screen.. 80% of the planning and design is left upto my printer/designer, she says which photos are best for use and we go from there.. I had to usesome low res ones, as its the best i had of that particular persons car.. and i wanted at least one of every car submitted.

So.. forget this years calendar, lets move on from that one.

That said, any ideas are welcome, but in the ends, its upto my printer and she she can do.

so keep submitting people! Make them stand out - make them different from the usual boring photos taken from your backyard. experiment, get together with some other members and do some group shots. Keep them coming!

Guys, would everyone like to organise a 'photoshoot day' for these photos. Get them all done at one time and that way if you dont rockup then you dont get the privlage of being in the calander and then if there is over whelming demand we can have 2 or 3 cars in the one photo and then noone misses out :)?

I would LOVE a photo of all the GT-R's in a line, if someone has a first Gen GT-R in Adelaide that would be fantastic too but I don't like the odds of that lol

otherwise Im game for a photoshoot day in the near future if the weather holds off a bit ???? I have some new interesting spots for photos

thats the plan damo.. I want to include EVERY model of skyline, thus why im giving alot more notice this time, more time to organize and plan it. I may make it a little different this time, to include more photos - see what I can come up with, with the designer. Yes i want to include different cars/members this time, but i will probably also put in small photos of regular, full time members who may have entered last time also - probably not as main photos tho, to make it fair.

I want to keep the front cover similar to last year, with a group shot, so a cruise/photoshoot will be in order.

Good job on the calander for 2009 Flick, it looks nice on my wall. Im sure the 2010 calander will look good in my new home :P .

I will email some pics for this in the next few days. but if there is another photoshoot cruise for the front cover is in order send me a PM whenever it goes ahead I havnt been on a cruise in a long long time.

^^ Ill see how I go with that, when is it again? Im probly working. If i cant make it, would be good if someone could take some decent shots to forward on to me.

Iron Chef, I LOVE ur car, always have, if you could forward me some shots would be good. Got some shots from all jap day wth Heslos car? I think it was u two that were parked together, that would make a great pic.

And nisskid - action shots more than welcome! I want to show skylines in all sorts of ways.. from show quality to track.

I encourage u to be creative people! Some of the best shots last year came from Vu who went to different locations, different lighting and the shots were awsome. His were taken in a quiet city street with some amazing lighting effects. So make ur photo stand out!

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
