If anyone is interested in taking pics of their car in a proper photo booth, i have acces to the one where i work.. there's also a car wash facility there so you can shine yr car up prior to shooting it.

There is, of course, a small fee for it's use and you must supply yr own camera.

PM me if yr interested

kthnx.

You also need to bring your own lighting to get it to look like the pro's do.

Studio's are great. Freakin awesome if you know what you're doing and have all the equipment. I'll gladly do a studio session with anyone's car. But it'll cost a lot of money to do.

Reflections play a key part. Even more so in a studio environment, because you don't want the lights showing up in the paint, but conversely you want the light to show off the lines of the car by reflecting. So things get a bit difficult. Lots of time is involved too.

Sure you can just rock up and start shooting with an onboard flash, but you'll get better results in an industrial park in the fading afternoon sunlight IMO.

This is what a studio setup looks like:

Yeah, but that makes the post work take so much longer. I hate working with warm lights.

lol

it was a joke

but i guess if you used a grey card to set the WB it wouldn't take so long...

but yeah, i know what you mean about working with warm lights

the ones i use at work make it so much easier to get accurate colours

    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
