Nice mate. :laugh:

What technique did you use? I want to have a crack at this now! lol

Thanks, I had been thinking about it for ages before Sidd posted up, Just had to get motivated...

I did it hella ghetto stylez.. But like Sidd said, after having a crack at it and knowing what you need to improve the next time is good..

I just got like a shitty baking dish, this is where I went bung, it was a white one. Filled it up pretty high with water then got a glad sealable bag and filled it up with water and got some pegs and clipped it to a cupboard handle. Then I put a flash on a big can of milo and angled it a brown piece of cardboard (only thing I had lying around) behind the back dish. Then put camera on tripod with 100mm macro lens and manual and auto focused for some shots and tried hand holding it aswell. I shot some in AWB and Tungsten to get the blue effect...

Hmm, thats about it...

When i get home i'll post up my samples of splash photography, you have all got me motivated to do it again haha.

Sidd - Sweet photo, i'm guessing extremely low shutter speed because of the motion blur? Flash seems like it was on camera or really close because of the harsh shadows behind and hard light. I think it works with this pic!

Great photos people!

beautiful work man!! love it!!

Yup exactly once you have a crack at it you will know exactly how to improve for next time!!

Wonderful results for your first attempt man :laugh: Wish i had a 100mm macro lens tho!! That would have been sweet!!

Cheers man. I was glad I had a go at it, I'm more then happy with the results. Stoked actually. The 100mm macro is a sick lens, and cheapish as well for what you get... I have kenko extension tubes as well but I don't think I need to get closer. I'm prob gunna have another sesh later if I'm not to intoxicated. If I get any good ones i'll post em up.. :laugh:

    • 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!
