Hey guys,

Recently My mates and I are getting into a little artistic kind of photography. We came up with this photo, which required a team of four people but what makes it special in my eyes was that we took it in one shot! What you see has no editing or post processing. Hope you like it =)

Were planning to do a new shot each month, so if you guys have any bright ideas please leave a comment and hopefully we'll come up with something different again.

Cheers,

Kev

When a shot is taken like this with artistic aptitude, it's hard these days to convince an onlooker that there wasn't any 'touching up' eh?

At least in film days and without computers, we were limited to multiple exposures if 'touching up' was contemplated.

Yes, keep adding your talent to the monthly thread! :)

WHy dont' you just chuck this up (and your next shots) in the monthly thread?

Sorry I didn't realise there was one, will add it there next time.

Yeah Terry everytime someone sees this photo they don't believe it hasn't been photoshopped lol I keep telling them it's a one shot wonder!

yeah next time no WTF, as creative as it is lol would prefere it with just the tail light blur, unless you can pull off GTR in letters?

Yeah the WTF is representing a business name thats all. But you guys are right a nice GTR letter or nothing would probably be nicer. Will try next time =)

    • That's awesome, well done! Love all these older Datsun / Nissans so rare now
    • As I said, there's trade offs to jamming EVERYTHING in. Timing, resources etc, being the huge ones. Calling out the factory ECU has nothing to do with it, as it doesn't do any form of fancy boost control. It's all open loop boost control. You mention the Haltech Nexus, that's effectively two separate devices jammed into one box. What you quote about it, is proof for that. So now you've lost flexibility as a product too...   A product designed to do one thing really well, will always beat other products doing multiple things. Also, I wouldn't knock COTS stuff, you'd be surprised how many things are using it, that you're probably totally in love with As for the SpaceX comment that we're working directly with them, it's about the type of stuff we're doing. We're doing design work, and breaking world firsts. If you can't understand that I have real world hands on experience, including in very modern tech, and actually understand this stuff, then to avoid useless debates where you just won't accept fact and experience, from here on, it seems you'd be be happy I (and possibly anyone with knowledge really) not reply to your questions, or input, no matter how much help you could be given to help you, or let you learn. It seems you're happy reading your data sheets, factory service manuals, and only want people to reinforce your thoughts and points of view. 
    • I don't really understand because clearly it's possible. The factory ECU is running on like a 4 MHz 16-bit processor. Modern GDI ECUs have like 200 MHz superscalar cores with floating point units too. The Haltech Nexus has two 240 MHz CPU cores. The Elite 2500 is a single 80 MHz core. Surely 20x the compute means adding some PID boost control logic isn't that complicated. I'm not saying clock speed is everything, but the requirements to add boost control to a port injection 6 cylinder ECU are really not that difficult. More I/O, more interrupt handlers, more working memory, etc isn't that crazy to figure out. SpaceX if anything shows just how far you can get arguably doing things the "wrong" way, ie x86 COTS running C++ on Linux. That is about as far away from the "correct" architecture as it gets for a real time system, but it works anyways. 
    • Holy hell! That is absolutely stunning! Great work!!!
    • It does when you start adding everything else in. But it's not just compute. It's the logic. Getting your timing right (I'm not meaning ignition timing for the engine). Making sure of your memory mappings, seeing your interrupts. Microcontroller devices only have so much capacity. For the most part, you want all those timers and interrupts in use on your engine control, which means you're left with less than ideal methods for timing and management of other control functions.   Let's put it this way, my job is all about building custom hardware, that goes into cars, and integrates with them. We're also waiting on a media confirmation from SpaceX too fora world first we've just completed with them in NZ too. It's not just the little toys I play with. But you know, you can think and believe what you want.
