For some reason i immediately thought of dizzee's song from your "disko" title lol.

Good to see someone who doesn't use 180 degree angles! Necksnappers.

For a beginner mate, your definitely getting the hang of it! Can't really comment much on the carpark shots as they are carpark shots, but have you thought about using a flash moderately for those kind of meet ups? Looks like you left the camera on the ground as a tripod, good idea.

Some of your white balances need to be corrected in some shots, and your horizons need to be straightened up, but for a beginner mate, your definitely learning and off to a good start :)

Keep posting up in the monthly threads or here!

White balance.... Hmmm im not even sure what and how to correct that. Will have to ask a mate to show me what it is.

I didnt have a tripod so i had to use the ground but i just bought one so thats no longer a problem.

As for disko hehe thats my trucks name too hehe so i thought id use it here too.

Well thx for the tips and encouragement, ill look into that 'white balance' thing and try to improve.

Cheers, addz.

You can adjust white balance on the camera too. Adjust it for different conditions, different types of light. Can also mix it up for differing colours. Best to touch up in post as well.

By the way, great beginning shots mate! And like Kory said, make sure you contribute to the monthly threads :)

Bro, that's a sick shot of the Silvia, especially for a beginner.

I've recently begun my career in automotive photography, and I can say that your use of angles is nice. Canons are fast, and you should consider track-based photos. I also like your Supra shot :D

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
