ok, sorry to get your hopes up frinik......yours was the first name that came to mind, but the picture i was refering to was actually justinfox's

on that note, my vote for non-professional category is actually frinik

Well seeing as sau had its down time i couldnt get this up til now :)

but oh well dont want all that hard work go to waste, so ill post it up anyways even if it wont count :P "i told myself i wasnt gonna cry hmmmmph'

just made afew changes to the humble 33 gtst

I vote for rrrage's "Garfield/Ralph/Gumby/DomoKun" combo.  ;)

:)

frinik is a graphic designer though? just not an employed one. and if not, that leaves one person in the category of professional... bah!

the whole damn system's out of order.

oh.....well then.....i vote for you rrrage........cos u an me i think were the only ones that did decent entries(imho) and arent professional graphic designers(i'm assuming your not.)

I'm a total NewB at this cause the only photochopping i have ever done before this competition is this:

I cannot believe you didn't think my entries were decent.... i hold my head in shame...

when is this getting drawn? how is this being drawn?

i ain't no graphic designer or anything like that either. i think it to be a little unfair that people that do this for a work can enter the comp... oh well... it is amazing what you can teach yourself just by messing around in photoshop and having some imagination... i haven't even opened the instruction book yet!!! ha ha

I think it would be unfair if I couldn't enter! Work for me is designing corporate logos, business cards, letterheads and web sites and I consider this oppotunity to make some "ART" which is related to my passion of cars (Skylines!) very far from what I do for "work". And yes, photoshop is fun, and fairly intuitive (a brush is a brush, a pencil and pencil etc) so everyone who has photoshop should have a bash at it. I never read the book/manuals either. I think the creators of Photoshop have created an absolute monster of a program. I doubt that the creators could ever have predicted some of the amazing imagery that people have created with their program.

I'm super chuffed with these entries. I love all of them!

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
