Okay. Actual full size replica of the Titanic. 25 million dollar building in my home town area. =)

I visited it and the Liverpool Legends were there (Endorsed by Louise Harrison - George Harrison's sister) which is the best cover band for The Beatles.

So here are some (very few) pictures that I have from that. I will be putting more up when I get a chance.

And if you want terrible lighting, go to a concert of some sort... lol

What's cool is that they have ACTUAL stuff from the Titanic, and people come about who were relatives from the actual crew etc. They also have a 100% authentic 1 million $ replica of the staircase from the Titanic. Talk about an amazing place, this thing is neat as hell. Thought you guys would love it, too bad it didn't make it for real =(

Yes, you can ACTUALLY see what it WAS like to be ON the Titanic...

Something else amazing is... if you DO come here to see that, ever. Your tickets would cost you 22.0893 AUD per adult. Which is AMAZING.

I took these two shots (amongst others) the other day while I was at my cousin's house for Easter lunch and dinner.

Unfortunately, I didn't think to clean the chrome-backed mirror of my cousin's Prado before taking these shots, and I'd forgotten how much extra detail you get with a D-SLR. I'm not yet nearly good enough to go thru it with Photoshop to clone out all the blemishes, so all I've done for these is some exposure, saturation and cropping adjustments.

It adds the lines to the viewfinder that split your image into 9 squares, they don't look emulated, they look like they are really there. they dont look any different to the focus points and horizon lines that are there already.

Look in your advanced options and see if you can find it.

ohh yeah the rule of thirds assist. This viewfinder lens replacement assists you in figuring out what's in focus, and what's not, and if in fact something really is in focus (line up the 45 degree split on the subject image and it'll be in focus). The oldschool film SLR's used to use this trick. It doesn't affect liveview.

Call me old fashioned, but I hate liveview unless I'm shooting something from ground level. The day someone makes a gooseneck adapter for the viewfinder I'll be all over it.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
