and yes she has no freckles on her face!!!

cheers sidd. just the random things i see when out and about, lol. speaking of which... saw some random artworks at the central markets today. all made from masking tape. its hard to imagine the scale, but some of these were absolutely massive with the picture stretching past a whole row of stalls. i'll be merging some pics together later to show the scale of them (if it works out, lol)

had to be heaps patient, waiting for people to move sucks. but somehow after a minute or two standing around looking weird people stop coming past and getting in the way, lol.

Oh man thats awesome!!! I would call that talent..

Keep posting those random pics. I enjoy it.

From todays quick shoot:

Just a random I opened up as im still processing another wedding. Im sure i got a better one of this shot.....just gotta find it.

This one was so cute. I asked him to pull her into his arms, and he suddenly yanked her and her legs went up naturally and they both had a beautiful moment. I guess you had to be there to witness it.

Them having a moment to themselves. I love this as I captured their natural smiles!!

Well back to processing more photos :(

dude, love your people shots man. i hate taking pics of people, i always feel uncomfortable and others usually pick up on that and get uncomfortable themselves. you can tell the confidence you have in your photos as the subjects reflect it back, well done.

spotted this old banger in a back lane in town today, thought it would make a nice subject for a HDR

165100_1614305030608_1025781561_31373488_3496478_n.jpg

got a few more HDR's to process, hope more of them came up ok. its something im trying to teach myself, and by teach i mean fiddling with settings until i think it looks ok, lol.

NA, it was a street art exhibition by a guy named 'buffdiss' (http://www.flickr.com/photos/buffdiss) and a couple other blokes. blew my mind when i saw it, and then i checked out his flickr and yeah, wont ever look at stickytape the same again, haha.

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.

Strange you didnt get it, did you have refferences?

I actualy got it this year (first time trying too)

They do take their time in getting back to you, apparently the external pannel of judges took ages to write up their recomendations.

Anyways, heres a few from Margaret River (and arround there ish) I took this week:

ICM? in cammera someting....? If so then yes, that shot was simpy converted raw to jpg and thats it, no colour or any adjustment at all

i meant intentional camera movement. pretty much just moving the camera with the intent to make an abstract photo.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
