Dude, you're roughly 20-30mins away from either me or Matt (in different directions, though), so all you have to do is let one (or a few) of us know when you wanna go out for a shoot, and we'll tee something up.

noted! find a midpoint :P keep in mind i'll be in a commodore haha, hangs head in shame.

Matt & Kory will be using my Foz soon to take yours Sid, Nick's Stag and others interested.

If Matt (lying down) gives me any lip > I get upset > my right foot twitches > turbo comes on boost > terry leaves scene of an accident :P

I reckon this would look much better if the wheels were turned the opposite way. Definitely a cool photo with cool location!

Agreed. Didnt get to setup the car. Just saw my opportunity and took it while i could :P

the background turns from a good shot into a great shot. i was going to get all sunset and flare on it but thought i'd keep it simple and clean to bring the cars out. cheers homeboy.

a note for HDR kings on cars... be mindful that your hdr will more than likely bring out all the reflections in the paint. something to think about.

If you're referring to the awful reflections in my shot note it isn't hdr. Just a damn bright sun.

Sweet shots Serg. Always improving in my eyes. Killin it.

I'll be Terry trash talking! But don't kill me. Preferably run over matt first so i can get a good laugh and then he can't laugh at me.

I've softened up...

I inspected (for Matt's sake) the Forester "Child Restraint"

Fulcrum bolt is half sawn through. It's only a matter of time... hehe...

CHild restraint... You'll be lucky if I show some restraint next time we meet, old man ;)

Got some new top secret photo gear arriving today! woot ;) You'll have to wait and see what it is though.. ahhh the suspense!

wow! some more awesome action shots. all very good! You have media pass from looking at the locations?

Here's something different to the normal cars I shoot. A Holden FX Ute. Built in the late 60's locally. Lovely car. THis one was built up from a rusty shell by a friend and his old man. They've currently working on a pro-stock Vdub beetle for something different :P

Enjoy!

It's available in 1920x1080 on my site too.

didnt really do the scene any justice, but it looked so awesome when the sun was hitting the smoke through the trees. bit hard to get a good shot when your holding the camera with your off hand and the other hand is holding something smoking, lol.

might give it another go and see if i can get it right

Well, I thought I'd share the results of my first experiment with actual rig shots. actually, it's my 2nd attempt, but the first attempt was with a $5 piece of junk that nearly cost my camera :P (FAIL)

I haven't made a boom yet. Hope to get this done during the week. Having a limited range of positions i thought I'd get creative to try to tap some angles not usually done by others. thoughts?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
