EDIT: Also love those shots Micheal

Michael shots look great - some CC maybe set the white and blacks in either photoshop or lightroom to give the image the full tonal range. The images look great just lack that little extra punch!!! Only being super critical anyway

love that first one Josh!

but any reason you used auto white balance in the bottom pic? would look awesome if wb was set properly (and horizon was 1/3 or 2/3 instead of in the middle)

to tell the truth i have no idea about how to set the white balance correctly for a shot like that let alone at all. The castle shot was really hard as the lighting was from so many different sources and so many different colour temperatures :( Want to teach me haha

with night scenes tungsten seems to work best i found. on the D90 the white balance button is on the back (3rd from the top on the left, labelled WB/?/Key) just press it and give each setting a try. you'll eventually get a feel for which one works best in which light. i remember on the d90 you can set the white balance as a K value, that helps really dial it in, just give a few different settings a try. ken rockwell gives a good rundown on white balance. all i know about it is the camera tends to need a hand in artificial light. http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/whitebalance.htm

EDIT: Nice Rhys, some sweet shutter dragging going on!

these shots=awesome

love the bottom one....

Some randoms from recent shoots:

So the girls wouldn't let the groom into the gurdwara unless he payed up. So after a few minutes of haggling a price (which the girls declined) he decided to get his credit card out. Priceless moment!!

Had a huge success from my first photobooth session :) Cant wait to do another one. Even a 3m wide roll wasnt wide enough for big group shots.

Will post up more soon. But the shot below is just showing my setup.

i grabbed a couple shots of the sky yesterday too. was awesome. i reckon we might get another one today. I remember it happend last year about the same time and happened for 2 or 3 days in a row.

love the variety and quality of this thread!

went for another ride to the onka river. looks like it will be a daily thing for me. actually got off the bike and walked out onto the swamp area for a few shots...

Nice capture there CPD.

Jay - Love the 1st and the last one. The simplicity and vibrancy is awesome.

Richie - Cheers man. Those are just randoms I have posted. Hopefully get the blog updated soon. Ah nice shots of the skylines there. I see you been trying that toy look type effect. eg) 6231 and others. Nicely done.

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
