my bro's car club hit the castle once before. parking is a plentyful but getting a shot with castle in the background with the entire club might be difficult. the parking area i remember ya cant really see the castle through their trees

note it looks like you could fit about 3 skylines infront or 5 swifts in the above case :(

also there's also a fancy fountain thing jus off the camera that we could probably surround aswell

but still sweet as spot all the same

Ok im in the process of finalising this! Just would like some imput, Thinking castle is out, bit far and also not a huge area to use.

Do people want to do 1 spot or 2 locations? Ive got one set in mind, wouldnt mind suggestions though. Going to do a final run from the meet spot etc on saturday and take better notes.

i know this sounds very standard and cliche but a beach/ocean ?? just an idea always makes for a mad backdrop.

may i have a pm with meeting spot and time. i think scandyflick/ aka dave is bringing me down with the R should be a riot!

cheers

Some things to consider:

The forecast for sunday is 36 and hot. SO it will be very bright sunlight; is the photo op area shaded at all? Bright sunlight will case some pretty harsh shaddows, so if there is shade, it would be better.

If not, will the cars be able to be manouvered to be with the sun behind the photographer? less shaddows in the photo's then :thumbsup:

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
