If you haven't figured it out, and the sun does stuff you can worry about it. I'm not worrying about shit, sonny.:whistling:

+11ty!!! We have given you advanced 2 weeks warning now. Although i am a qualified spray-canner.

I'm sure i could mix something up to make your car stand out from the rest of them. I'll fly Jay over from SA and he can do some graffiti on your car too. It will be cool.

Either way, are you going to come to this meet and learn some sh!t or what? Select individuals are coming for a photoshoot. If you wanna learn/find out what happened to your car, you should come.

P.S. Matt - Don't forget to PM Owen and Nick also. More importantly Nick as he has the SAU banner and is more important. <3 you Owen.

<3 you too maen.

Not sure if I'll be able to get there, as I'm apparently $25 in debt to my bank, and have already borrowed $200 this month from family (Payday is on the 28th). Shit. Wait, graffiti on car? Ok, so far the only thing I've noticed is on my window there seems to be some kind of "off" colouring above my passenger wiper; although I haven't checked it out fully. I've had a damn good look at all the lights, checked my indicators/lights/tail lights (just in case you'd swapped the bulbs in the numberplate light or something), and no dice there. Looking at an angle, there doesn't appear to be any finger-marks in the dirt on the car (lols), although I might not be looking well enough. I looked over it on Sat all around; had it out on my lawn in full sunlight and couldn't see shit. Honestly, I know you guys have said I'd overlook it, and I f**kin well have.

Nooooooooo idea.

And now for something different...

In other news I'll write up that PM soon, just playing with a couple light paints of my car.

I've given up on Owen working out whats wrong... but I'm still not planning on telling him any time soon. Actually. If he rocks up at this shoot, or the next one I'll tell him. Only when all 3 parties are present though. It's only fair.

nice work Matt! im loving the second one. seems to have the most even spread of light and not as many hotspots. awesome work dude. although, only thing i'd do different is add some more light to the ground. kinda looks like its floating in space, although that could just be my monitor being dark? love the one above it too. how did you do the white part tho? im trying to work it out, lol. and got a shot of that graff by itself? (cant help myself, love graffiti, haha)

Hey guys, haven't been shooting much lately, but I got a chance to test out the ISO on my 5DMkII on Saturday night at a local club.

All taken at ISO3200 and with a 135 f/2L @ f/2 except the first one ~ ISO3200 70-200 f/2.8L @ f/2.8

Nice shots Lepper! You can easily see why ISO3200 is so useable, especially at web size. You could of cranked it up to 6400 and it still would look clean (at web size) and reasonably clean at full res.

Post more pics!

The black shadow is my mates shadow. A pretty model for not a model. Easy to direct. The white shadow is me with some post work. I don't think I was dressed to suit what was going on so I thought how about shadow vs shadow. I think it looks pretty cool. Did some boxing ones too, might try one of those tonight.

Yeah the quality isn't bad at full rez on ISO3200 either hey,.. These were taken at manly fishos... Thanks for the comment man. :D

ah cool. thought it had to be done in post unless you got a perfect cut out of yourself, lol. nice work.

and wow Lepperfish, that 5d does perform well at high ISO's. although for live gig pics i like a bit of grit/grain.

Kids, I've got two ideas:

1. We start a mini chat thread in this section where we can discuss whatever, photography-related, so that the monthly photo threads don't get cluttered; and

2. We start a little friendly "competition" similar to the Canon Photo5 one, where we have similar (or the same) briefs and submit photos here based on that.

What say ye?

Lepperfish - Manly Fishos?! Thats 2 mins down the road from me, do you live around here? I live in Allambie Heights.

I like the plan Nick! Both of them would work. That way there would be a bit of chat in here, but not as much as this month lol.

Maybe a kind of "lounge" area to discuss everything and anything photography related.

And then get a monthly photo thread going. Winner gets SAU goodies like stickers or something and the yearly winner takes your stagea :P Hahaha.

Sounds good to me :P

You guys should enter the comps on ns.com I held. I finally got some prizes now for the winers!! Check it out.

Yo jay, i spotted a white r31 with a kit and rims etc and the plates where JAY ***.. reminded me of you!!

haha, how random! mine is currently kitless as the kit is getting molded. we are hopefully going to graft different fronts onto the sideskirts.

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
