hmm her skin is a little pink now that I can see it on my work PC.. but yeah, i'd take the white glow out of it is what I was getting at.
on my screen that looks really dark :(

I guess this is the problem with digital photography.. Pictures always look different on various screens.

That's what I'm worried about - colour calibration tools for monitors aren't exactly cheap if you only want to do this as a hobby!

Just make it look good on your screen mate :worship:

(thats what I do!)

(although seem to have a recent issue where my home and work PCs are totally different :worship:)

Spyder 3 colour calibration is probably the best colour calibration tool but you definitely pay for it! $300 for the basic kit and then $400'ish or something for the pro kit... Worth it, if your making money from photography, but for the hobbyist/amateur, it's so not worth it lol.

I think macbook (pro's??) have there own kind of inbuilt colour calibration tool?

im going to start editing photos on my TV I think. See how they turn out.

I have 3 monitors connected to my pc at work and a picture looks different on each 1 lol

At the moment i edit on my 40" Full HD TV, i don't like it! Yes, its awesome to have such a uber huge screen, but the colours are a bit off and there not as easy to calibrate as a normal Monitor, but i still enjoy it lol.

Yes, same with me, i got 2 screens and each one is different lol.

I'm using a 40" Full HD TV as my monitor for my main computer, but most of my photos are stored on my laptop, and what little post-processing I've done on that (I'm still learning to use Photoshop) shows up completely differently on the TV.

Group buy on the calibration tool? lol

Ian - Nice pool table.. i mean bike... heheh i see the sticker :)

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
