Is the file location the URL or the HTML code that you can get...my files kept linking back to the sau main page...

I then tried to just upload the images but it only came up with little thumbnails... How do you make the preview thumbnail much bigger like everyone seems to do??

Hey guys.

Finally getting my car up after posting Terry's in the May thread...

Love the night city shots from you guys. Here's one from me, I hate the grain in my night pics - this was taken at ISO 800. Not sure if it's my D70 (pretty old model now) or what?

Also - Sidd I thought the nude model shots were great - at least the thread is only locked but it's still there to appreciate...

800 iso for a night shot would give some noise in any long exposure...

Try lowering it down as far as possible i.e 200 and put it on a tripod to counteract the longer exposure. Will reduce the nosie dramatically.\

Thanks Josh. Yeah exposure was about 16 seconds at f/18; it was on my tripod and there was a slight breeze but nothing that should have unsettled it; I thought I'd up the ISO to reduce my reliance on a longer exposure but guess I should have gone the other way. Cheers :)

Hey Guys,

Few images i took at my last meeting in between runs...it was my first attempt at panning so i would love some cc as i always like to improve...

Thanks

Thanks team!

Matt, the waterdrops certainly complicated things, but i like a challenge. I don't want to give to much away, but i had to paint half of nicks 'beautiful' mug back in haha.

Eddy, no Behind the scene shots were taken. Mine was on the rig, Nicks was in his boot :P Basically, the camera was stuck on a pole that was stuck on the roof of his car.

have you guys tried shooting during blue hour?

Sure have, and do, and always try to - and as already pointed out we call it the golden hour :)

Awesome pic Sidd

How on earth did you link your flickr images? I cant for the life of me work it out....

Looks like you found the "Grab BBC Code drop down" :thumbsup:

Firstly awesome car mate! Secondly like Josh said try a low ISO like 100 or 200

(also f/18 wouldn't be very sharp either would it? could you open it up a little and still get the DoF you need?)

Hey Guys,

5712836459_dde0745681_z.jpg

Don't think you need CC! Love this last one

Bit of CC - IMO the 1st one doesn't work - would have been better with front (or whole car) in focus :)

Great shot Matt. Nick's Stag is looking tough there. Nice job placing the rig without there being a noticeable absence of water droplets either...

LOL, Matt (God-speed), we were lucky in that where we placed one of the suction caps for the rig was right in the wiper's sweep area, so less drops needed to be edited in/out.

Thanks team!

Funnily enough, my car is very rarely clean for long, and almost never has been when we go out shooting (or for anything, actually, including the 2009 SnS), so I'm glad it doesn't show too much in these photos. :D Thanks again for doing these, Mr Everingham!LOL, Matt (God-speed), we were lucky in that where we placed one of the suction caps for the rig was right in the wiper's sweep area, so less drops needed to be edited in/out.

These three are my favourite, especially the side shot of both the GT3 RS and the Cayman! I have to agree with Zennon regarding the very first photo you posted, part of the car seems a bit out of focus - maybe a smaller aperture would work, I dunno.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
