I had the pleasure of shooting my favorite generation of Skyline Friday afternoon as well as a guest appearance from another GTR, an Ultima GTR. Cossey, I want your R33. I used a new technique for editing, Im not 100% with it yet but Im happy how close I am to where I want it to be. I was going for more of a contrasty, bright image. I have too many images to post, so if you want to see all of the shots: Skyline GTR: [http://www.flickr.com/photos/killerblackbird/sets/72157624256304552/](http://www.flickr.com/photos/killerblackbird/sets/72157624256304552/) Ultima GTR: [http://www.flickr.com/photos/killerblackbird/sets/72157624138307139/](http://www.flickr.com/photos/killerblackbird/sets/72157624138307139/) C&C welcome!

Pics came out great Jim. Thank you very much for the pics. I’ll respond to your PM soon about which one(s) I’d like in a high-res. Maybe the 911 will be able to be shot this year. If not, there’s always the LGT! lol ---

Meh, I was just asking for a conservative tune. I planned on bringing it to LRP/WGI and beating the balls off of it, so it was running a little rich and not revving as high as stock (supposedly it’s a 2.8L stroker, not the factory 2.6L). Until anyone tells you my numbers are fake with any proof, I don’t see why you’d contest it. ---

Shot #1 is my new desktop background, replacing another work (the dusk lake shot) by Killabird. This looks like the military base on the border of Niskayuna, which has a rich history of hooligans fooling around with their cars. ---

The wheels didn’t require too much work, but they need to be refinished anyways so I could care less at this point. Once I get them powdercoated (white), I’ll give a more thorough analysis of maintenance. ---
