dohmar -as for the repeat of some members cars in the last calendar - that was because there wasnt as much notice and not many people submitted their photos. I DID use at least ONE photo of every car that was submitted - to fill the gaps, I had to re-use some members cars - had to fill the gaps somehow.

As for this time, well theres alot more notice, and alot more planning is gong nto it, so it wont be like that this time!

coolness, hopefully we can find someone with an early model gtr and a 35 *nods* :P

Last calendar was awesome, put me down for two again :P

Be happy to have a calender, hey flick can we maybe vote on the photos used for the 2010 one ? just a suggestion ?

and get a deadline for photo submission ? not to be too picky but some of the photos used were low resolution ones when the hi res were provided for use ?

could have been a designer error or printer error . but hey thanks for putting up your hand to do one :banana:

hey I have some nice shots of luke blowing his chunky dinner on the sidewalk in kadina for the back cover ...lol

kidding!!!! Luke

Hey troy. Cheers for the suggestion, but as for the voting, well im going to avoid that - or it will just turn messy and turn into arguments and dissagreements. I will just do it how i did last time. What looks best on the printers screen, is what will be used..

As for a deadline, well as yet there is none, it wont go to print for AT LEAST 6 weeks, so I guess thats the deadline, gives people pllllenty of time to organize photosl. Take time people - go out on a sunny day, experiment with angles, backgrounds etc. That said i DONT want photoshopped photos, pure natural photos are best, thus why some submitted last time werent used, they were too edited and well.. tacky looking, not what SAU is about. Show us YOUR car, not what u can do to it with a bit of editing..

The photos i used last time troy, were the best i had to work with out of what was submitted. Yes, some high res ones were left out, they just didnt look right when blown up on the printers screen.. 80% of the planning and design is left upto my printer/designer, she says which photos are best for use and we go from there.. I had to usesome low res ones, as its the best i had of that particular persons car.. and i wanted at least one of every car submitted.

So.. forget this years calendar, lets move on from that one.

That said, any ideas are welcome, but in the ends, its upto my printer and she she can do.

so keep submitting people! Make them stand out - make them different from the usual boring photos taken from your backyard. experiment, get together with some other members and do some group shots. Keep them coming!

Guys, would everyone like to organise a 'photoshoot day' for these photos. Get them all done at one time and that way if you dont rockup then you dont get the privlage of being in the calander and then if there is over whelming demand we can have 2 or 3 cars in the one photo and then noone misses out :)?

I would LOVE a photo of all the GT-R's in a line, if someone has a first Gen GT-R in Adelaide that would be fantastic too but I don't like the odds of that lol

otherwise Im game for a photoshoot day in the near future if the weather holds off a bit ???? I have some new interesting spots for photos

thats the plan damo.. I want to include EVERY model of skyline, thus why im giving alot more notice this time, more time to organize and plan it. I may make it a little different this time, to include more photos - see what I can come up with, with the designer. Yes i want to include different cars/members this time, but i will probably also put in small photos of regular, full time members who may have entered last time also - probably not as main photos tho, to make it fair.

I want to keep the front cover similar to last year, with a group shot, so a cruise/photoshoot will be in order.

Good job on the calander for 2009 Flick, it looks nice on my wall. Im sure the 2010 calander will look good in my new home :P .

I will email some pics for this in the next few days. but if there is another photoshoot cruise for the front cover is in order send me a PM whenever it goes ahead I havnt been on a cruise in a long long time.

^^ Ill see how I go with that, when is it again? Im probly working. If i cant make it, would be good if someone could take some decent shots to forward on to me.

Iron Chef, I LOVE ur car, always have, if you could forward me some shots would be good. Got some shots from all jap day wth Heslos car? I think it was u two that were parked together, that would make a great pic.

And nisskid - action shots more than welcome! I want to show skylines in all sorts of ways.. from show quality to track.

I encourage u to be creative people! Some of the best shots last year came from Vu who went to different locations, different lighting and the shots were awsome. His were taken in a quiet city street with some amazing lighting effects. So make ur photo stand out!

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
