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?

Great work! I really love the first and third shots.

Very creative indeed Matt! Very well done!

I really think you have just about every angle covered...

except from the passenger side, looking over towards the adjacent cop car in lane 2 :P

I'd be a little disappointing in your if you didn't want to do her :P If she's worth a photo or two chances are she's worth a vodka or two....

here's that ellusive missing pic!

not much done, just a colour overlay and slightly blurred, going with a different look. thanks for looking ;)

This is the sort of stuff you have to deal with sometimes at weddings.. Though I don't mind it but sometimes can be annoying and your white balance can go out the door.

If you don't focus on what's immediately surrounding the light it looks sort of like God is blessing the wedding...! :)

I like this one mate. The contrast in the colour between the beach and the surf is nice. Would look great blown up.

Thanks everyone ;) terry you crazy old man, you've given me a brilliant idea!! Will see if I can manage it.

Andy that pic godspeed picked is my favorite too. The colours and lines are in right spot. In 3rd.

Also gives u a foreground, focus and background. It's Rad.

I like that shot of yours too sidd. Without the light I reckon it would just be another photo. It's got something happening and the colours are great.

Dont judge me :(

I went out for a jog this morning and i noticed the fog, thought it looked pretty cool, did one circuit instead of two and got my camera out.

yeah nice! each morning this week we've had a nice blanket of fog and the sun has been burning through it. was planning on (trying) to get up early on sat and shoot a couple... we'll see how we go.

That sounds wicked!

My shots have the moon in them, dont know how to make the moon look any better *shrug*

Its kind of hard to get decent shots though, i cant keep still long enough for a good shot :P

And yeah Rhys, Blair and Phils game faces >.> bit dodgy hey!

Got this shot of the LOLvo today when I was trying these wheels.

IMG_2671-Splash.jpg

Unfortunately, the wheels do not fit - the offset is too agressive at +15mm on an 18x9" wheel. They stick out of the guards a good 1.5" front and rear...

...and I'm already running a fair bit of camber, which contributed to this:

IMG_2664.jpg

You say they don't fit, yet you show photos of near perfect fitment? This confuses me...

Tab, did you have a tripod? If not you could lean on something, water fountain or park bench. I've done that in Hillaries before, looked like a fkn tool, but it worked perfectly! Lol

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
