I've got a couple but the gutter cut the light to the bottom of your rim and it looks pov.

I shot an underexposed shot with a flash zoomed in in my other hand. I did still need to remove some minor stuff in shop but the shots were 95% done. I was just trying random shit. I've shot so many car shows I get bored if they're not moving... *YAWN*

Car shows are boring as hell. IF i ever go back to see autosalon or something, i'm only taking pics of the models and that's it. When you can't move them/shoot them how you want, you may as well just take a P&S to a car show.

I like the effect, especially since your bored.

That girl look like a drowned rat or is it just me?

SB-900 hey! You could of ordered 2 AB's for the price of one of those :)

So, i got denied from being CAMS accredited! Quite devo, but meh, always the rest of the year to improve. As long as i don't see little sh!ts at WTAC again this year with kit lenses and point and shoots, my year shall be filled with joy!

PS - Sidd that is a rad shot of those flowers.

I hope everything in QLD eases up too, poor people :(

Well from a bunch of my other mates that also applied, they also got denied. They "strongly suggest i re-submit again this year" with a better business plan. It was a bit weak, but i can't really write much about what i want to do in 2011 as a tog because i dont know what i can do or where i can go.

They were also extremely slack in getting back to us all about being accredited or not. It said on the website, you'll know by late november, yet i only just heard back today. 3 months hanging on the fence is a long time to wait only to find out you've been rejected.

Ah well, i'll just re-think and re-submit. If i don't get in this year though, i think i'll have a massive whinge haha.

Meh, they already told me.. Lack of a business plan, they told me i shoulda wrote about who i service/plan to service in the future. I don't see how that makes such a big difference that i don't get CAMS but whatev's, Can't do much about it now. I just think if i waited 2 weeks to find out, i wouldn't of bothered caring, but the fact that 3 months later i get rejected. You'd think they could get there shit straight and at least update there website also!

Did my mate call you yet?

that sucks kory, the quality of your photos kills the quality of some togs that i know will get accreditation. i didnt bother to get it again this year cause well, i dont have a dslr anyway, and because having cams did absolutely nothing to help me earn any money. at the end of the day i wasted $4000 of our life savings on a career that was never going to happen. i guess you live and learn tho.

Experimenting with HDR. The sun was really blinding to the point i couldnt see much else so thought it was worth a shot anyways. Will get there eventually. Still a long way to get to the standard of alot of you guys. Unreal photos.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
