These are some pic's I took in the tunnel a few months back. I could fit 3 or 4 cars in a shot, shots are taken at a rolling speed of approx 50-60kph. It'll depend on a few factors on the night (Traffic, police etc etc) if we can pull this one off.

The "Tunnel" near questacon may be ok again depending on how many cars turn up.

We could group same model cars and do a few runs, in groups at each end to save time for you if it helps, like a relay, you could shoot both directions if the background is same both directions.

Is there anything we can do to help? Anything we can bring?

I'm not sure how many cars I can fit in frame and in focus. Also due to them being a moving shot all the car(s) need to be at the EXACT same speed as the lead car.

Michele = Can I get a list of the confirmed cars and colors of car? Might help with some of the moving group stuff...

As Tunnel curves, I can take shots either direction But Running away from civic is my pref. But then agian it all depends on the night what angle and how many cars etc etc...

Two runs threw would be pref, to allow for any minor stuff ups.

The Crappy shot of the 4x4 is from the add..... I haven't had a chance to clean it and shoot it.... its a 4x4.... its not suppose to be clean and pretty :action-smiley-069:

IMPORTANT!!!

The Museum is having a function this friday night. So the top part of the car park will be full with "guests" cars.

This also means that any museum shots i could normally access (like under the arch, under the loop, round the back) are all out.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
