I was going to slap you too, but decided that you were pretty freaked out after Matt slapped you and didn't want two slaps in a row. Your missus looked horrified as well lol..

Haha yeah, after you guys left she's like "....who was that and why did they slap you".

My face hurt, another slap wouldn't have been cool :D And I wasn't going to give you the opportunity to use my eyes as a flash tester

inspector, the man's face has a slap mark, but no indentation to show how hard he was hit!

i guess you could say he was *sunglasses on* unimpressed?

YEAHHHHHHHHHH

Your "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!?!" was classic. It reminded me of a year 7 kid or something being on the verge of tears after getting hung from the flag pole copping a massive wedgie.

We took some shots of your car downstairs and were idiots with it. IT was fun.

We also tested our flashes on each others eyes numerous times resulting in the proven winnah!!! Canon 580EXII poo's all over old school manual flashes! Haha.

P.s. Karuso impressions are full of win over bond!

Hahah, I just had no idea where it came from and was disoriented, like whaaaaat? Trying to sort through my head, "ok now who are these people?"

Wait, what? "were idiots with it"... is there something i should know about the outside of my car now? :D

I wish I'd gotten to the morning meetup earlier... I blame the missus for not getting up when we agreed on (half hr later I'm still kicking her out of bed)

is that first shot my car? focus is what>?

The 580 seems to put out a bit mre light, the real winningness in it is not having to wait 50seconds for a refresh at full power though. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

The slap was funny, it's all good, you owe me one now :D

Attempted focus was the wheel arch, but I suck pretty bad. And yeah it is your car...

Are you obsessed shooting wide open now Owen lol. Stop down a bit to something like 2.2 or 2.8 to get the best sharpness if you want creamy bokeh stylez. Otherwise stop down to f/4 f/5.6 to get the best sharpness out of the lens.

Looking good.

Oh and yes... We pee'd all over your door handles................................................ :D

Nah, Matt will post the photo up sometime soon and you'll see what i mean.

And lolz0rz at 50sec recycle. 3 seconds on the 580 FTW.

Not obsessed, just wanted to get a few really open shots :down: I took a few back around 3 or so and they didn't turn out, more because of my other settings than anything else (EDIT:: or maybe I'm just shit).

Eeeeewwww *looks at hands in disgust*

hahahhahaha :D

yeah, i was only doing auto focus towards the end of the day when I was pointing the camera out the window. Was doing manual focus with the 50mm, but either i can't distinguish the fine difference with focus levels yet, or something else. It looked good when I was taking the photo through the viewfinder but came out balls.

Got a few pics at Barbagallo today at the Drift Battle day... before the rain came pissing down.

Some nice shots dude! Were standing at the end of Cat Corner?

I was going to bring the camera down, but decided to leave it at home and drink beer at McCracken House instead :(

So, I know this is moving picture but I'm pretty proud of my improving skills. Next time I should have taken the time to get out the tripod and shot the footage the right way. I have to learn to slow down and get fewer good clips rather than trying to get coverage all over.

Next things to work on - tripod work and a dolly for slow panning shots.

      The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Pac · Posted

      Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down.

      The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
