Yeah, I tried switching from Matrix to point. Problem was that a lot of the nature photos had Crocs behind a few leafs/twigs. I tried shooting a few shots with auto - all crap. Then went to manual and would take a few at slightly different focus - all looked ok through the view finder. Of course, generally all of them were a little off which is why I only posted some of the better shots on auto. I've still got a lot to learn :P

Yeah common issue. Best way to avoid this IMO is get in the habit of zooming in on the view finder three or four times depending on the camera and then check what it looks like. You might have to take one photo you know is sharp using a tripod or something so you know how many times you can zoom in on a sharp photo before it doesn't look good any more.

Does that make any sense? lol

Nice shots mate, I like the graf one with the R33, would look even better without so many reflections in the car though. imho.

Thanks, Yeah I agree on the one with the graff, will attach the PCL next time to cut the reflections see how it comes out. Cheers

The birds head is soooo sharp, looks great Sidd... The colours are pretty blown on my moniter, the yellow and reds especially.

I think its just the feathers like that. Coz honestly i havnt done any editing to it, well apart from usual raw processing, like brightness, contract etc then change to jpeg.

Will look at the high-res file tonight and see hmmm.. Also i use a IPS panel monitor, and looks fine. Not to sure tho, will re-check. Cheers for that feedback.

Oh and used a macro lens for that shot lol and focused on the eyes only.

Two more:

Awesome macro shots, Sidd.

I've gotta ask, how close can you be to the subject to get a fully-filled frame and still be in focus, especially with a 180mm focal length? I've got a 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro, and sometimes feel as if I can't get enough detail while still making sure the frame's filled enough.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
