Hello all!
New around here, and youll probably see me only in the engine forum or suspension forum. Thought id post some pics.

Relatively unmodified car, except:
- 325i Sport Kit [minus front bumper...thats on my wishlist!]
- E30 M3 Eccentric TCA Bushings
- Compomotive MO5 alloys [need a little re-furb though]
- Eibach Pro lowering kit. [will do until funs permit a KW V2 coilover set]
- HID's @ 6000k

Also, me at my first trackday:
YouTube Vid: Trackday at Brands Hatch

HDRs:

The last pic was with my housemates Toyota Cynos import. His car takes makes good pictures

Pretty much a standard BMW i have here, but thought you might like some HDRs, ive only done 2 shoots so far. These are from my first attempt. Can't wait to get some done when i've finished what i've got in the pipeline

Cheers!
Scott

Hawt. Only thing would be to bump the exposure on the car a fraction.

From Wiki
"The Toyota Paseo (known as the Cynos in Japan and other regions) was a sporty economy car released in 1991 and was loosely based on the Toyota Tercel. It was available as a coupe and in later models as a convertible. Toyota stopped selling the car in the United States in 1997, however the car continued to be sold in Canada, Europe and Japan until 1999, before being replaced by the Echo in 2000. Prices varied from US$14 999 to US$17 999. The Paseo like the Tercel, shares a similar platform to both the Toyota Starlet and Toyota Cynos. Several parts are interchangeable between the four."

Thanks for the comments, indeed - i need to work on my exposures, nameley my apperture sizes, so i can get less grainy pics. All in all im pleased though.

Yeah the cynos is basically a Japanese import of the Paseo. His particular one was an N/A 1.5, though now he has a 1.3 Toyota GT Turbo engine. By the end of the year he'll have a the 1.5 back, but this time with forged internals, ported (etc) the head, a bigger turbo (circa 2.0l Impreza size) and is aiming for 250hp.
Much like me really, but minus the Turbo. N/A ftw

Damn! Those s14's were flying. I love how they destroy the e36 so easily. e30 FTW!!! Nice pics and vid.

nice pictures ! i'm starting to really like the m-tech kit
i like the video too. but the e36 your following seem a little slow no? or you're just a fast driver..
e30_4cyl... those �S14s� might have swap their 1s for 5s ending up being S54... you can never be sure whats under the hood of an e30 M3

Letsplayskatch · « **Reply #7 on:** May 08, 2008, 07:42:37 AM »

cheers for the comments

it was a BMW trackday, and they are regulars whenever we're there. They are most definately S14 lumps, but all the trackday (and indeed all owners) of E30 M3's over here have sexy DTM carbon airboxes - i.e:

Yeah I think the guy in the E36 EVO was taking it easy. Theres no way i was keeping up with someone who has 321hp unless theyre nervous/cautious etc! Just for comparios, heres the same track (Brands Hatch) but with a pair of BMSport Kumho Challenge cars, prepped by my dads company, both in the same livery - Vid
Theres quite a difference i reckon :cool:
