I'm in the process of organizing a very restricted photoshoot at one of the Airport's in the metro area. no confirmation of location,Date/time or Aircraft type yet.

I'm looking for the best of each model to represent the Local Skylines, right now I'm restricting it to aprox. 6 local cars, and a few standby

GTR models of course will be first preference , depending on responses

can you voice your interest to see if its worth my time to do it, please???

I can narrow it down once confirmation of dates etc. is given. near Christmas is all I know. so far.

RULES

no rubbish cars please, if it has zip ties or duct tape holding it together save it for another time , sorry no race cars with the exception of R35 models only

you will sign a waver of damage liability and MUST have Full insurance on your cars, all photos will be copyright with limited use by car owner only unless permission in advance, No hooning/acting foolish or representing yourself in a disrespectful manner to anyone involved , speed limits around aircraft/tarmac, walking speeds only

you will not touch the Aircraft or any other equipment without the owners persmission

only one car on the tarmac at a time , possible shoot of all the cars lined up in the end time permitting

time limits will apply per car. target is less then 2 hrs tops for all the car shots.

no other photos will be allowed without permission first, Video of the shoot is open for discussion

prescreened female models welcome to attend, tasteful but sexy clad of course(over 18 only ID required ) and must sign model waiver

each car owner will get a DVD Disk of photos containing useable final production shots in very HI RES, JPEGS only

limited riders and watchers will be allowed to attend, nobody under 18 allowed unless car owner

Rules etc subject to change at anytime.

cheers

i can understand all the liability stuff, no stress. planes aint cheap. and getting a runway aint easy.

but 'all photos will be copyright with limited use by car owner only unless permission in advance'... whats the point of the shoot then? to add a couple pretty pictures to someones portfolio at the expense of 6 peoples time?

i dont see why the participants cant use the photos of their cars (perhaps with the photographers watermark) where ever the hell they please.

limited due to

if a person walks over to a shop and they want 10,000 copys and puts in shops for sale ? is that fair to me , no ?

the car owner would have access to do what they want with the photos, except offer them for sale or commercial print/web without permission in advance

standard stuff for photos Dave ???

since the photos would be able to be blown up to a poster size with degrading in quality ? low res copys no so fussed. but I'm trying to jimp thru hoops to get a spot , aircraft, and of course you can't use ADL for photos without Federal permission escorts etc. so don't even ask if thats the location.

plus the aircraft/Airport owner has a say in it as well ???

I'm not doing it for profit or gain in anyway. just offering some for future use on SAU (promo stuff or ?)? if the owners don't want photos in possibley one of the hardest places on pavement to get photos then they don't have to say yes ? not forcing anyone

plus this might end up to be a charity promo for kids , depending on a few things still ? ( gold coin )

if I don't get enough people interested then I'll just do my own car ? just thought I should offer the option to SAU mates ????

always antaganist aren't you..hahahah

i was simply asking about the very final wording in your rules (new explanation is much'o'better). i dont even bother thinking about the standard 'cant use in your own advertising, cant print and sell, etc' but anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows shit like that, maybe its just me, but the way you worded it originally made is seem as if it was 'you cant even look at the photos of your damn car without our say so', if you get my meaning.

i once knew a guy who fancied himself a photographer who worded shit like that, he'd jump and down screaming bloody murder until he was blue in the face if someone so much as linked a photo of his to a build thread, hence my asking i guess.

always antaganist aren't you..hahahah

antagonism and nihilism go hand in hand. but yes, its one of my many skills.

I guess we are going to the RAAF base

im gonna go ahead and say 'not likely'. i have enough trouble get one other person on base, 6-12+ would be a f**king nightmare, and i daresay they simply wouldnt allow it.

+1 on that, probably be parafield at a guess

you must also wear the colour undies that troy advises...

any other colour undies will NOT be tolerated.

just thought id add another rule to the list.

why no race cars? its not that i care....., just some of the toughest looking R's in adelaide

are track only......

better looking than stock 34s anyway.

need a federal permit at Adelaide airport?

*puts work photos away* :blink:

they get fussy if the see you driving on the tarmac without escorts...lol

and are cracking down on photo's, depending on locations taken... paranoid since 9/11

race cars would be allowed if I can't find enough cars, but then it brings tralers and more time to unload etc into it.

it could be in the evening inside a hanger , so we can wet the floors down to have good reflections off the car/plane

plane could range from Biplane to private jet or old fighter.

the RAAF would be cool next to a F111,F18 or the new F22 that australia bought but I wouldn't hold my breath for that....lol

any controlled airfield needs permission to enter, parafield is included

spoke to the aviation museum already about it

could do a cruise to the shoot depending on location etc.? (or close by if others wanted to do photos afterwards ?)

I parked near a gate on the far side of the airport just off Marion Rd to take photos of my old R33... it didnt take long for Federal Police to rock up and shoo me away.

And then another time me and my mates cruises around and parked there just to chill and a few minutes later Federal Police rocked up and shoo'd us away. They're pretty quick!

    • Hi everyone, I'm about to complete my first single turbo conversion on my R32 GTR and I thought I would post the step by steps that I will be following. I will list the parts I have / the parts I will be buying. I will be redoing this guide after I have completed the conversion. Parts list: - 3576 turbo 0.82 v-band (coolant and oil)  - v-band top mount turbo manifold - 50mm wastegate - manifold copper gasket - titanium manifold stud kit - turbosmart 3 port boost solenoid - link can lambda kit (wideband) - link ECU - radium 12AN push in valve cover fittings (pair) - hi octane catch can - 3.5inch downpipe - screamer pipe - pipe from turbo to intercooler - intake pipe setup - power steering relocation kit - oil drain block off plate - coolant and oil lines Now onto the step by step guide (please add / correct me if there's anything I missed: 1. remove fluids, twin turbo pipes, pod filters and afm's 2. remove the factory coolant hardlines from the hot side. 3. remove heat shields  4. remove the downpipe 5. remove turbos and manifolds 6. remove factory manifold studs 7. clean whatever mess you have made 8. install power steering relocation kit 9. install new manifold studs 10. install new turbo manifold with gasket 11. install new wastegate with screamer pipe 12. install new turbo  13. install new coolant and oil lines  14. install rear oil drain block off plate 15. stop and appreciate that you now have a single turbo in your GTR 16. wipe away tears of joy and install downpipe 17. install the wideband sensor into downpipe 18.install pipe to connect turbo to intercooler 19 .remove stock boost solenoid  20. install new boost solenoid 21.  install intake setup 22. setup the rest of the can lambda kit with the ecu  23. refill fluids and hope for the best 24. ask forums for help with issues 25. fix issues 26. drive your single turbo swapped r32 GTR into the sunset. Doneeeeeeeeeee. Now I know this isn't detailed at all but I will be doing that when the conversion is done. I will be posting pics and any helpful details i can and ill make sure to fit in as much information as I can. If there's anything I should know before i do this PLEASE let me know. Stay tuned for what's next. Thanks...
    • I have wasted too much time on this, more than I am willing to admit. I hope someone can set the record straight for me.  I want to replace my Nismo (non GT pro, non GT) standard 2 way in my R33 GTST with a 1.5 way... Ideally I want to get an ATS 1.5 way Carbon LSD, but I don't want to reuse my 29 spline 5x1 axle stubs, and new 30 spline 5x1's are impossible to get a hold of ($$$), and I don't want to drop the cash on going to 6x1 stubs and axles ATM. Which leads me to the Nismo GT Pro 38420-RSS15-B5 or RSS20, as they come with new axle stubs meant for the diff, and is "Convertible" from a 2 way or 1.5 way to "Other ways", but that is where I am stuck as the documentation is a bit all over the place.  To sum up what I have found I believe the all the Nismo GT Pro PN's are convertible from 2 way, 1.5 way, and 1 way; but Nismo sells 2 skus (2 & 1.5) so people do not have to disassemble to convert it.  I found this thread on 350z but it left the question unanswered. https://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/620032-nismo-gt-pro-lsd-1-5-vs-2-way-and-torque.html  Essentially the way I think it all works out is like follows...  2 way  1 way  and 1.5 way would be the center pinion shaft in the 1 way block, but with the with the center flipped 180*. So the ramped side of the pinion would face the 1 way gate and act like a ramp.    I can only get my hands on the 2 way in the states, and I am not trying to get stuffed on tariffs by ordering from Japan or anywhere else. I want to confirm that if I get the 2 way I can convert it to the 1.5.     
    • Hi everyone, I have purchased my first GTR and I want to do a single turbo conversion to it. I've been doing as much research as i can and there are a few things that I can find and need to know. I need to run a coolant feed, coolant return, oil feed and oil return for my turbo setup. Here's what I know so far: On the hot side of the rb26 there is coolant feed, oil feed and oil return. Coolant return will be going around the front of the engine to where the thermostat is located. I will need to block off the rear oil return port. I will be running a turbosmart boost solenoid so any of the factory boost stuff wont be needed. Now onto what I don't know: 1. What do I do with the coolant / vacuum hardlines that run around the back of the motor?. 2. What do I block off or loop or move or remove?. I will be running the OEM intake manifold. 3. Is there anything in particular I need to buy for the cold side of the rb26?. I already have the intercooler and pipes sorted. If you have any pictures or information it would be appreciated. Thanks....  
    • The fab work can be as simple as a couple of silicon hoses and clamps to the factory piping. 
    • Just sounds like either way you need to do some fab work to get everything to fit, so why limit yourself at that point? If the GCG high flow option is zero effort in and out swap though I'd probably do that. It's almost certainly lowest risk, lowest cost, etc. The HKS GTIII-RS option that Kapr mentioned is laughably expensive for what it is, they charge the exact same for two turbos on the RB26 so their margins are off the charts on that thing.
