Well I went to Phillip Island Circuit on July 2nd, there was the Alfa Romeo Sprint day plus a few other random cars. I managed to sweet talk the organiser of the event and scored a media pass, so I put my fluro vest on and snapped away.

There were a few GTR's too :) Gear used was a Canon 1D Mark IV and a 70-200 f/2.8 IS II

I like that front half of the crx. nice shot. good composition!

those mtb shots are cool. i thinka flash would have helped freeze that motion a bit more, if that's what you were going for. :)

another from friday night... R33 flavoured this time.

cheers matt, yeah I'm kicking myself, I forgot to charge camera batteries the night before so I charged em in the morning. Flash batteries didn't get enough charge though as I only have a trickle charger, had enough for a test shot and that was it lol. doh.

Getting Vertigo from that! Great shot :) For some reason, I reckon this could look awesome if converted to B/W and with upped contrast. I also think it could be a great theme if you could get access to some 'darker' buildings that are more adventurous architecturally. If that makes sense.

Just a few from the weekend's Macquarie Pass Pie run; trying out my new 50mm F/1.8 G

cheers. i was considering b&w due to the lack of color in the pic, but im lazy, lol.

as for access to other buildings, most times i gain access by stealth so i dont get a lot of choice as to what rooftops i get onto, haha

Here's a shot from Friday night while out with Matt and Kory. I'm not too happy with it because my flashes wouldn't trigger via wireless for some reason, so the lighting could have been a fair bit better.

Hey everyone,

I got a brand new website up and running. Let me know what you all think.

Link: www.sidd-rishi.com.au

Cheers

Very nice Sidd. The separation between the Indian and Western weddings is interesting... I wonder if either group looks at your website when telling you what they want for their wedding, and maybe takes some ideas from the opposite side of the world, so to speak.

Nice one mate. Was this before or after the car locked itself? :happy:

I find the commander mode / remote flash irritating sometimes; as the sensor for the commander signal on the SB600 is on one side of the flash and if that happens to be on the opposite side to the camera taking the photo, you're a bit stuffed. It'll work indoors with a low ceiling but elsewhere (outdoors) I've found it trickier. Unless I'm missing something, maybe they should put a transparent window the whole way around the flash body, then all that would be needed is some reflective plastic to bounce the commander signal up into a sensor inside the flash.

Thanks mate, this was after the car locked itself.

My flashes have a base that can rotate 270deg so you can pretty much point the sensors wherever you need to and still bounce the flash in the intended direction. It's just that they wouldn't trigger. Oh well...

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
