Friggin sweet shots guys :(

Sidd - I can tell right now that your logo is like that because its an image on a white background and your just copying and pasting it on and your marquee selection is getting free transformed or something?

1. Open the image with your logo on it.

2. Copy it to a new layer - MAKE SURE ITS TRANSPARENT

3. Make it however you want.

4. Save it as a PNG (there will be no background, only the logo).

5. Should be fixed!

Maikul - It works by taking a long exposure, painting the car with a light source and as long as you move fast enough you wont ghost in the photo.

But here ya go. I'll post more of the extreme shots later on, i was too tired and just wanted to get project 365 out of the way. But fcuk me suspension is amazing. Nearly rolled twice as well, it was awesome! I Was in the blue hilux. Had about 200kg+ in the boot full of gear plus the roof car tent.

My mate in the silver hilux, fell straight into a hole in a river crossing and almost rolled, got stuck, took us 2 hrs to get him out and cutting down of tree's and getting extremely saturated and muddy!

All this = Awesome weekend.

Yep, i set it at 11 so if i need to change things the next morning its alright hahaha. But i might make it earlier. Cheers!

Yeah my mates hilux. They are all tree-loppers so if tracks were blocked/too narrow.... Out came the chaninsaws and timmmbbeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Maikul - It works by taking a long exposure, painting the car with a light source and as long as you move fast enough you wont ghost in the photo.
Also with the light painting, make sure you are between the camera and the light source, or you'll pop up as a 'ghost' if you stop moving.

where's some of these 4x4 shots? ;o

Ah okay, very cool. Will have to give it a try sometime.

That's pretty clear man. that's using a tube and not a dedicated lens yeah?

I shot a couple buildings in the city over the weekend jay, I'll post one up later on :P

did you do a bunny hop to get to the 10th story? haha :D Post a pic of your bike.

That's pretty clear man. that's using a tube and not a dedicated lens yeah?

24-75 f2.8 with a digital extension tube... which is kinda handy cos the camera can still do auto ISO etc. Tube knocks it down one f stop though, so can't use it with slow lenses.

still gotta use manual focus for best results.

Thanks Zennon, more to come tonight :)

Like that shot of your dog funkymonkey!

Nice night drifting shots. I like 'em!

And jay - I want a photo of your bike too! With LED light painting around it :P

oops, double post. :P

spotted this awesome looking Elgrand on the way home. It's an E51 model and not sure what rims it was wearing, but damn it looked nice. This was my attempt at a rolling shot, lol.

    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
    • A full Veilside kitted JZA80 Supra in Meriken park in Kobe city a few weeks back
    • Its a well known brand in New Zealand; its a rebrand of the Rhino RAV3.  I don't know what the wiring difference *is* between the rev.1 (installed about 15 years ago) and rev.2; but as you say I would think its reasonable that it uses the same immobiliser relay circuits. I had a look but couldnt see a similar harness; but didnt move things around since I didnt want to mess with it   It was one of AVS well known Authorised Installers; I spoke to AVS themselves about it but theyre unsure hence seeking advice more so from the skyline community who are more familiar with the actual car and its wiring. Im in Auckland; but the installer is on the other side of the city so hes very reluctant to come back to even look at it to confirm something isnt connected into the wrong wire.  I dont want to drop the name since they *did* do a really good job for the most part. Everything is very tidy and he fully replaced all the alarm wiring, all the sensors, the wiring to the door motors, installed a switch which was never installed in the first place...really happy with the alarm install itself..just not this one issue. We all make mistakes, if it is the alarm, I just want my fuel pump getting proper switched, fused, power as it was; without having to shell out for an auto electrician to switch a wire and tell me it was the alarm. 
    • Even with the piston at TDC there was room for it to drop, but I don't think it can drop fully into the cylinder, the problem you have is that you need something pushing against the valve to hold it up so you have enough room to put the new stem seal on and the spring etc.  I used compressed air only because putting rope in the cylinder seemed a bit risky to me, I know people have done it countless times before like this. Overall it's a pain in the ass job. Honestly you'd probably be better off taking the head off because the risk of dropping something in the engine and the finicky-ness of it all is very stressful. If you are going to attempt it though i 10000% recommend a 36050 valve spring/keeper tool. I had both the traditional lever type and after doing 1 cylinder it was absolute pain to get those valve keepers in place, even with 2 people. That 36050 is amazing, you do have to push hard to get them in place but it works perfectly almost every time. Back to my actual issue I think my engine is just tired and old and the rings have gone bad. The comp numbers (cold, no oil) were: Cyl 1 -129psi Cyl 2 - 133psi Cyl 3 - 138psi Cyl 4 - 137psi Cyl 5 - 157psi Cyl 6 - 142psi   Cylinder 5 and 6 having the most carbon on them.
    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
