you must gotten unlucky dude. i've got a D90, it's been out in the rain, dropped, abused and mroe. would have about billion shots on it and it's marching as strong as day one.

having said that, I've played with a couple of D7000 and it's a clear upgrade. Work out if you want to spend the money though. It might be the D90 is everything and more than you want.

Totally upgrade to a D7000. They actually feel really nice in your hand (I'm a canon person) and the upgraded AF and IQ is great. In the end, you sound like you're going to upgrade anyway! :)

Ended up going the D7000 :) My D90 was almost 2 years old and i really didn't want to get stuck with that technology for a few more years. Nothing wrong with the photos it took i was always blown away, but with higher IQ and Upgraded AF it just made sense. Its nice its also a little heavier and pretty much the same size with button locations so nothing to really get used to!!!!!

AF-S 35mm f1.8 is a very nice affordable lens. Would be even better on a D7000 as it takes beautiful pics on my shitty d40x.

I did have a Sigma 50mm f1.4 which was unreal, just beautiful bokeh. BUT it had a mis-focus issue with the d40x, had it replaced with a 2nd lens and same issue.

A higher spec camera can calibrate for this i was told.

I think it was focused on her chin instead of her eyes.

45degree test showed the problem

    • 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.
