hey guys/gals,

thought i'd post this in this section. Cos i'm quite proud a few little things i did, here's what i reckon the back of the V35's should look like...

I tried to keep the relections and shadows of the trees going on the right hand side lights. So it wasn't like i was just colouring in around it. And i did a very little bit of reflection on the left.

I also tried to continue the bootlid/corner light grey colour, around the top of the lights, going. So it sort of blended in with the shape and flow of the car more. I also did a little bit of brush work right on the edges of the lights, to keep the round shape of the sides going. I think i might need to finely outline the lights in black, make them look like they are set into the car. What do u guys think?

mmmmm, i like that ... combine ur's ryan and mine, be quite good :D Definitely better bootlid line. Now just need to get rid of the red plasitc surrounds, and then leave the afterburners.

ok, finally got around to it, ryan's bootlid line and my afterburners, i guess this is what we would like the new skyline to look like.... well, the best from what we have to work with, thanks nissan :D

and to all those who how? check my second post :D and i just used the brush tool, changing the size of it, and using the eyedropper to keep the same tones of grey.

the bottom of the boot, the dark bit. i cut a bit from one end and copy/paste and flipped horizontally, and then rotated to fit. reverse lights were just cut and paste, then fix up the area where they have been left.

still a pretty dodgy job, but u get the idea.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
