We were at southbank at like 12:30 or something at night and we got told to leave by a security guard :D Then at work, I have one of those photos on my desktop and one of the managers asked me how the hell I got my car into southbank without a pass! I'm like "*shrugs* we just drove in"

Another nice spot, depending on where you want to go, is down at point danger. Theres a nice grass field where you can get into if you know where it is. Thers a gate with no lock and you can open it up and have access to a big green patch of grass right on the waters edge. VERY nice.

Kangaroo point is always open.

Very hard to find a spot that takes in the cliff and your car without being full of other "stuff" (ie: toilet block, swings, dirty bushes full of homeless people and rubbish)

Erins got some photos of kangaroo point on her computer I took too, but none with the car in it.

With something like an EOS, you could park the car in the widest open space you could and zoom in from the other side of the river to take the long exposure shot :D Tricky dicky.

Just take lots and lots of pics at different places I guess.

Still worth a read of this old article..

cut'n'paste from the conclusion part:

Conclusion

There are five major biggies to think about when shooting a car:

Location (eg background)

Lens focal length (eg wide angle, standard or telephoto)

Lighting (soft/harsh, position)

Camera angle (high, normal, low)

Movement (long shutter sped, flash)

damn erin, nice pic

i tried to take some artisticy lit pix at the kangaroo point cliffs (nice red behind the car) but my camera doesnt have good enough exposure control, so they turned out a bit shit :)

its a nice spot though, if u got a good camera, its pretty as

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
