The NSW branch of SAU approached Kory(FST515) and Myself to organise a shoot with the upcoming calender in mind. The brief was simple, "showcase some of the best vehicles this club has to offer." Ok, we can do that. We decided early on we wanted to offer something different to what's been on display before. We decided we'd do something a little different and offer you guys a bit of something special :down: You'll see what I mean.

I think everyone had a good time on the day, Dinner was awesome.

Massive thanks to GOLDZILLA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for all his help on the day!!! :D

Thanks to all the guys who came out (and their partners/friends)

Anyway. Here's a few shots. We'll be posting more over the next week as get around to processing them. We hope you all enjoy them, i've printed one so far and it looks amazing in print! Can't wait to see the finished calender!!!

If you're interested in having your ride shot professionally and getting some super awesome shots, send either of us a PM. Our respective websites are listed in our sigs.

Enjoy!

Great work on the photos boys!

Sorry couldn’t hang around all night would have loved to get some shots of our R32 GTR with the see through bonnet look they look fantastic and how do you do that?

Bianca was trying her best but was getting very sleepy after a big day and 39 weeks pregnant and still had to drive back to the Southern Highlands. Will have to arrange another time with you Matt to do some of those shots at night.

Look forward to seeing all the shots.

Wow didn't realize she was at 39 weeks! What an exciting way to be born though (if it happened). Even if your leather did suffer!

The See through bonnet thing is just multiple exposures combined into one. So you take one with the bonnet up, then take one with the bonnet down and layer it in photoshop and then use a layer mask to make it "see through".

Can't wait to see some shots of your car painted Brian, i'm sure it will look amazing as always.

Hey fellas,

Started the behind the scenes video. I'll need some of the photos in good res to put into the video - a la [shutter sound] photo spins down on the video frame (I think my software will do that).

Good stuff, loving all those fantastic shots.

Kory and Matt, you're more than welcome for the "chauffeur service" on the day - I learnt some photo techniques from you guys too, so it worked out well. Win-win situation!

Here's my effort on my friend Evan's R32 GT-R, which he'd bought that same day and decided he'd surprise me with.

Once I properly* process the photos of the other cars that attended, I'll post them up.

*Disclaimer: the use of the word "properly" is relative to my lack of skills using PhotoShop and LightRoom.

My only regret is that I couldn't take action shots from the car and drive at the same time, but looking in the rear-view mirrors and seeing (and hearing) two or three GT-R's so close to the back of my own car was AWESOME x11ty!!!

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
