one thing i've learnt (i think it was on ns.com of all places) is to try not to shoot in bright, direct sunlight. you tend to get bits that are over exposed and bits in deep shadow.

try that maybe. im not saying your pics are crap. far from it. i'd love to get some shots like you are getting. anyway keep up the good work man and help me fill my hard drive

Ahh yeah. Cheers for the tip. I think Sl!m has said that to me before, but yeah. It does look kind of washed out in certain parts of photo where its just too bright, and the dark and light levels don't really compliment each other that well, for example in the second photo down?

But i guess im getting there :P Only been using an SLR since the start of this year...so definately getting somewhere. :P

If i'm out mucking around in the sun i'll generally chuck on the polarising filter to get rid of the glare, it also helps smooth out the exposure. ;)

Examples:

1/2 ND filters can also be used to even out the exposure between the sky and the ground:

Food for thought. :D

can get them at any photoshop - Circular Polarizing Filter would be (read: was) my choice

dodgy test i did when i first got it - no PP (didn't have a tripod then either lol)

I love the last shot. green porsche = yummy :)

Great depth of field in the first shot aswell. The focus is intriguing lol.

(Yay im at school in my photography class :)...and im on sau? lol)

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
