I'm playing with some more photos now while uploading some to Flickr. I'd like to put the whole lot of them up (in JPEG form) and have everyone tell me what they want me to (TRY) and do with the photos lol. I'm not great with photoshop but I can try stuff. But I think theres to many. I Think I'll just slowly work through the better ones and edit them for now

Will get CD's/DVD's to whoever wants some. Just let me know what you want (As I have 2 copys of all photos, In JPEG which is your general photo your point and shoot camera will take, and RAW which is unprocessed and good for editing in photoshop as you get a few more options to play with them)

Anyway... Enough from me. Was a good weekend, think everyone will be happy to be home but haha. Have a good easter (whats left of it) everyone

Few Un-edited photos

I'm annoyed, I spent so long on that one of the back of your car trying to get it straight, then I thought it was right, and now it looks crooked by like half a degree haha

I'm done for the day but, Might edit some more tomorrow.

Anyone know a site that automatically resizes the photos as you upload them? If someone does then I can put all the photos up for people to look at. It just takes to long with Flickr and Photobucket

Was a good weekend boys, definetely great to finally meet every one. Will definetely have to organise something again in the future.

Also turned out my highway economy tuning paid off, ended up averaging 9.6L/100km for the whole weekend! Wohooo! No more 20L/100km bullshit haha.

Good photos Cal, i'll have a flick through mine soon to see if any of them turned out ok.

Matt, just gotta say it again, your car is pure pornography :wub:

Photos look good Cal thumbsup.gif

I had a great time, won't be so great when i try put my foot in my work boot tomorrow (f**ken god damn hill/garden). Going to bed early tonite sick.gif

Just struggle into work and claim compo because you "stubbed your toe at work" :P

Wish my fuel economy was that good...... I really need to get a wideband and start tuning.....

Yeah man you gotta get one and lean that shit out lol. For like the past 3 years I have had pretty shit fuel economy with the Microtech. This is the first time I have gotten it back to being good. I couldn't believe that it was 9.6L, had to triple check my maths to make sure I got it right :P

I feel like shit... Still.

Had an awesome weekend though. There are some photo's of Saturday night that are just... Bad. Great to meet everyone though! Next time though, midnight runs down Shute Harbour road. ;)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
