Thanks Eric, i love it too :)

Good stuff Rhys. More practice and more practice. Looks like it was a little dark there too or you had an ND on that could be making the photos soft? Remember the faster they are going, the more you can raise your shutter speed. E.g. Car going 100km/h i'd shoot at 1/30th, 1/40th, whereas at the drags, they are hitting 130'ish km's by mid track (for the average car) so by the side they are side on, you could shoot them at around 1/60th -1/80th comfortably and still with good motion blur.

Cheers guys, I'll try those tips next time. I think I was shooting in Aperture Priority as I usually do, but I think Shutter will be better for this stuff.

I also remembered how boring the drags are :P 4 runs in and I wanted to swap the camera for the 33 and try and beat my PB. hahaha

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
