Thanks Sidd

i had a go at this last night and my results were.... well, absolutely terrible!

Haha yeah I did two on the 1st - and both came out ok'ish (will post the another one up as well).

Then went camping up the beach and did 3 up there and none of them would even stitch correctly

Yeah added a quick description here under the photo:

but pretty much you need a 360x180 pano

where you try and keep the camera in the same spot

(this might be a lot depending on how wide your widest lens is)

then you stitch them into a pano - can use hugin for this but i used my normal pano software

then you stitch it into a little planet using hugin

(its harder than what it sounds lol)

love that last one, so cool!... gotta give that a try I don't have a tripod or a wide lense

I made this pano by lining the camera up on the horizon and just shooting about 10 shots handheld... then an hour in photoshop and I have something that could have been done in 5 minutes with the proper gear lol

It's finished :cool:

my light box.... light wand, light wang, whatever you want to call it... maybe a led brush?

damn phone never uploads a full pic to picasa.

Nice Matt! Might need longer exposures as it doesn't look like its that bright. I'm going to try with a LED Torch that you use when you work on your car at night. Otherwise going to try the hard way with a 64" Octabox and a strobe inside with the power pack on my shoulder. Shall be a tremendous effort lol.

It's variable power. But when its bright its no dimmer than f**k off bright. the camera auto exposed and the light is fairly directional. It's perfect for I need. Brighter than torch and no hot spots. Might try some later before beer o clock.

Ok Managed to test the light rig out (And get a no standing ticket :'( )

Here's a couple test shots. first is the gratutitous evo shot. THis is straight outtta cam. No editting.

Minor edits here. removed some bird crap, adjusted curves of pic.

^ nice looking forward to seeing more pics from the setup :ermm: So far it looks good. Maybe needs more power?

We had this swinging in the back of our car lol..

THanks for that :ermm: Will give it a try one day. ta

Dude i love your shot. Such simple, elegant shot. Would love to just sit there and relax. Where was it taken?

Man im just learning, and trying things out etc... but yea organise a model shoot and we can go have some fun.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
