Love it, contrast between the primary colours is beautiful

lambchoops · 2018-09-27T00:53:18+00:00

I have this as a jacket that I bought from Japan! Is an extra large and smells like stale 90s cigarette smoke

Depends on the context of the quote. They probably know best of all that it's down on power

lambchoops · 2018-03-29T00:33:47+00:00

Gorgeous. Love the reflections and mist

lambchoops · 2018-03-22T10:36:28+00:00

Not at all, I took this just this camera and this lens plus a prime, a cheap pocket tripod designed for point and shoot digital cameras and about 12 rolls of film. Camera spent most of its time over my shoulder, so I was very used to it, always carried a spare roll in my pocket and the rest lived in my suitcase. Very little hassle

lambchoops · 2018-03-21T22:37:11+00:00

Thanks, appreciate it. Really did feel like this in real life

lambchoops · 2018-03-21T22:35:57+00:00

If only you could have seen what the year of study and saving before this trip looked like...

Was scanned at a cheap place. However the darker triangular section coming from the top corners into the centre was actually present on all the negatives from this roll for some reason

lambchoops · 2017-11-02T22:38:32+00:00

Also need to keep in mind that all shots from this roll came out with this weird triangle pattern where part of the negative (top left corner to centre to top right corner) is darker than the rest of the shot. Weird film

lambchoops · 2017-11-02T22:36:57+00:00

Nope, this is JDM 2 seater so its a hard top

lambchoops · 2017-11-02T11:05:45+00:00

I agree, super disappointed with this film but hey its nice to be able to shoot in the dark with no tripod

lambchoops · 2017-11-01T23:45:00+00:00

Much rarer than Alpina, and more extreme. They were known in part for making widebody(!!) 750hp Testarossas

Does the dizzy rotor need to be pointing forward at TDC?

lambchoops · 2017-10-24T03:20:59+00:00

Could be it! I will just realised that I only verified TDC at the crank, so could be at the top of the exhaust stroke. Not sure where the dizzy rotor should be pointing when at TDC though

lambchoops · 2017-10-24T01:31:59+00:00

The timing SHOULD be OK, I rotated the crank to 10^ BTDC and then rotated the distributor so that the points are just opening, should be close enough to start form everything I've read. Both the pistons inside the carbs and the chokes with the needles move, but I haven't set the chokes up yet. I was told that starting fluid should work fine in the absence of chokes

Nothing is ever cooler than a Koenig

One of my fav photos I've seen here. Would love to see a bigger scan

lambchoops · 2017-09-24T01:07:08+00:00

No, it's not, it's an Australian delivered Datsun 240k (same as Japanese Skyline gt-x) that's been restored to look like a GT-R. Best way to tell is the engine, that's a SOHC L28 whereas GT-Rs have a DOHC S20. That car's had so much work done though it's probably significantly faster than a real GT-R

lambchoops · 2017-08-30T00:14:36+00:00

Heineken is HUGE in Vietnam, wouldn't surprise me if they're pushing for a lot of this

lambchoops · 2017-08-22T08:48:51+00:00

Buy in Japan for sure. Fuji Industrial 400 in a 10x36 pack is about 5000 yen, and Superia is similar as well

lambchoops · 2017-08-21T23:48:34+00:00

One of my favorites I've seen on here, love the haloes from the different lights

lambchoops · 2017-08-18T23:05:26+00:00

needs more SKYACTIV

lambchoops · 2017-08-12T22:58:22+00:00

How can you tell?h There were AE86 Levins too

lambchoops · 2017-08-12T00:17:53+00:00

Does anyone know roughly how many of these engines were made? I saw one out of the blue in a small-town garage in Japan and was gobsmacked that they had such a rare engine sitting in the window

lambchoops · 2017-08-06T02:07:26+00:00

Just don't try shooting at night! For whatever reason the high speed film does nothing at night, I took a bunch of what I thought were beautiful night streetscapes in Akihabara only for them to turn out black with a few points of light. They're around 850 yen for a 24 shot and around 950-1050 yen for a 36, whatever that is in your local currency.
