anyway back on topic...

Goldzilla, your right, clouds and storms can make a picture look a special,

Crack out the 1/2 ND's for massive skies. :sick:

I'd limit the size of the group too because it'll get messy real fast if you've got more than 8 cars.

If you want to vary what you are taking photos of i have a 74 beetle that looks pretty good that i like getting photos of. My skyline isn't to noteworthy though lol. So i would be keen if you are looking for something of that variety

Fair call... i haven't had to manage a large number people in photo's before... so lets make it 10....

uurmmm first 10 to confirm their good for next w/e starting from now??? any cars welcome... and if anyone just wants to tag along with welcome too.

Mountains to city. Who doesnt like driving down mountains?

Mitchell's Pass (Blaxland) is surreal atm

A rock fall has closed the ONE WAY section except for the fact that 1 car can get through at a time between a chicane of boulders.

The sign on Mitchell's Pass Rd says at the top, "LOCALS ONLY".

At the sandstone Lennox Bridge there's also a rock wall as a backdrop before the ONE WAY section where the boulders are sitting on the roadway.

not used to the terminology, but i assume that by 1/2 ND's your referring to the filters??? fun thing is, if you do HDR, it automatically turns any gray sky into the coming of the apocalypse, i usually have to do shop pschopping to make it looks less ominous.

That sounds cool, but i have no idea about places and routes through the mountains.

i'm happy to do it but i'd need someone like yourself to plan out the mountains part of where and when.

I looked for Mitchell's pass on google maps without much luck.

Whichever route we dont do this time, i'm happy to do a week or so after.

Ah can't make it that weekend hopefully there will be another one

I'm happy to go down through there tomorrow morning > another post here tomorrow afternoon.

My car won't be in any photoshoot this weekend however, as it's getting a new rear C/F diffuser + new brackets put on.

I'll need to see if the boulders have been removed - or whether they're still sitting there.

The whole weekend's weather is inclement but the rock face looks great with glistening water all over it.

Mitchell's Pass Rd is accessed from GWH Maccas Blaxland where Yondell Ave > Mitchell's Pass Rd

dont worry about not being free this w/e, i'm not either.

I'm hoping that the pass remains closed until later tho... i'd hate to have to go and cause a rock fall myself just to be able to use it again

I'd love to be part of this... just got my baby back after three weeks of surgery :D

But not in the next couple of weeks... hopefully, since you're dealing with small groups, i can be in the next one

as per other topic im in for whatever whenever.. :blink:

Just give me an address for a meeting spot and ill be there..

If you want to tag along Terry I dont mind picking you up to go wherever.

Thanks D for your kindness,

I'll stay in touch as I keep tabs on this thread.

Graduated Grey or Neutral Density filters - google it. :)

Also look up the Cokin filter system as it's better for Graduated style filters rather than screw-on filters.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
