I believe Greg uses a Nikon Digital SLR...  

Looks like that Manfrotto camera mount is going to good use Greg :(

Nikon D70 I guess?

I'm going to get an EOS300D later this year / early next year, hopefully if I come on a cruise I can get shots like that.

Greg, can you post the EXIF info for some / all of those photos? :)

Thanks for the comments guys, makes the pain of waiting and setting up the shots worth it!

For those after photos of their cars, PM or email me for details.

As for the tech heads who need to know everything....

* All the photos were taken on the Nikon D70 @ 18mm

* I use a mount to hold the camera steady (no hanging out of windows)

* Exposures are normally a few seconds

* No Photoshop trickery other than some small colour/level adjustments (which all digital camera users should learn)

And Mavric, good spot! (grrr)

Looking at the pic, i would say they are custom mounted. Shouldn't be too hard to do.

    • Further result update. This is from our ATR43SS3 model in T3 .63 rear housing, run against None Geninue G30-770 and 900 spec turbochargers in T3. 82 turbine housing. Those turbos are ideal for RB25det motors, Since I've got a bullet proof RB30det, its been used as test bed instead.  All three turbos run to a point that no more boost could be held and no more power could be made. Same test car and exact vehich setup as been used testing all three turbos:  
    • So after having a think about what I was going to do I went with the banjo fitting option. As I'm in New Zealand I end up getting all the bit from Franklin performance for $200. Its better than the what I had before, but will have to put some tape around the ducting and once the car is going will send it and see how it goes 🏎💨🤙.
    • if you want them perfect you will need to strip and repaint (or better, powder coat). They look fine for most use though to me fixing light to medium gouges in the rim is pretty straightforward, can be done on a big lathe, or even on the car, on a hoist with tyre off. deep gouges get bog, no other option really
    • Hey just wondering how does the car drive now with the 4.11 gears now, was there any problems driving with the R33 A-lsd? Also did you upgrade the front diff when you changed to 4.11 gears? 
    • If it's all just in paint, then....yes. Sort of. Depends on what you mean by "easily". Complete strip and powder coat? Easy. It's just you hand the wheels and a stack of coins to the wheel guy and they come back fixed. Damage to the alloy? Not easy. Still doable. Same basic method. Wheels + money to the wheel guy.
