photobucket to edit photos??

you gotta get yourself a real program lol

There are some freeware tools out there that can edit photos (even if its simple program to increase contrast, brightness etc)

Gus if your lens cant focus automatically set it to manual and focus that way

It looks like xmetal has a 50mm f 1.8 lens.

your stock kit lens (18-55mm) can not go wide open at 1.8 and say 50mm - which is what he has done in pic 2.

I would suggest you get yourself a 50mm f.18 lens :P

Great for low light work and does great bokeh work :)

Check out my pic in page 3 :)

yeah what i'm asking is how did he get the background blurry etc....and i jsut realised a stuffed up by saying close up the aperture haha.

what i should have said is "did you just open the aperture up" and he would have said "yes" ...

my bad....

quick question....your iris for the aperture, that is in the lens or the camera shell? as in can you buy a lens with a wider aperture? i'm guessing by what u jsut said you can...but just checking

Its the lens.

The 50mm f1.8 lens is great for bohek (blur)

"Bokeh (derived from Japanese bokeaji ボケ味, "blur") is a photographic term referring to the appearance of out-of-focus areas in an image produced by a camera lens using a shallow depth of field.[1] Different lens bokeh produces different aesthetic qualities in out-of-focus backgrounds, which are often used to reduce distractions and emphasize the primary subject."

hope this helps!!

The 50mm f.18 is only 120 bucks brand new :P

some interesting photos in here

the spraybottles look good xmetal, they both look a little grainy to me, did you sharpen them a bit?

so whats in everyone's kits?

oh and is it only me, or does anyone else hate the bokeh term.......dont ask me why..

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
