Topic #22709 29 posts Started by Insanity-74
Hi yall
Sorry to bore you all with some more shots of my car but there is a reason. I wanna send a photo off to a couple of car mags, see if I can get it into the readers cars sections (kinda like readers wives but without the nudity). I can only send off 2 pictures, which ones should I send off to make the biggest impact?????

Cheers folks, your input will be much appreciated. >wink.gif> >biggrin.gif>
F,C, or D the reason i chose these were because u stated you wanted to get these published and i think it wouldn't look good on your behalf to have the wing blocks not painted. it looks unfinished.

yea.. i personally think that your car looks great. but you really might need to consider painting the riser blocks too like Drocay said. the rides clean and all. it's already looking good. >biggrin.gif>

I`d love to lower the car, two problems with this, one, is the lack of suspension parts available for it, two, where I live there is alot of speed bumps which ground out alot of cars. When I have some spare cash I`m gonna treat the car to a full Gravel spec suspension setup from TRD, wont have to worry about speed bumps ever again, until then it will have to do as it is but I do agree with you there.

As for the raiser blocks, I kinda like em black it does go with the car and looks better in the flesh. The one thing I might do is paint the "GT-Four" letters on the raiser blocks the same colour as the car.
I like C. But then again, I just favor more of the front fascia shots.

Nice car Mr E, if I ever make it down to the South West I`ll keep an eye out for ya. I might make it to the next Guilford meet, was sposed to go to the last one and meet up with IBZWRC but had car trouble.

What are you using? Springs or Coilovers? Not that I have looked that hard, but the only company I coud find to do springs only offered a 45mm drop, I`d never make it beyond the end of my road.
TRD will do a very nice set of springs that are designed for the ST205. 25mm drop. 200 squid or so.

Work with the sock shocks nicely (although I uprated mine). Everyone is a winner.

THE RED ONE >mad.gif> >mad.gif> >mad.gif>
I hear the red ones a fake anyway, its a Morris Minor underneath..........runs for cover from Mr E (only kidding) >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif>

My first try will be in Bonzai mag then after that Japanese tuner, trying to stay away from the dedicated boy racer mags like max power and fast car cause they are just naff and I wouldnt want to tarnish my car by having it appear in such a lowley publication.

I was lucky yesterday, its the first sunny dry day weve had pretty much since last year so out came the meguires and 4 hours later it was shinny again, just ready for all the birds to crap on it as they tend to do just after you`ve finished cleaning your pride and joy.

What do you do if a bird craps on your car?...........Finish the bitch. >biggrin.gif>
love the rare color ..

park a scoobie in back ground and i am 100% certain you will get a feature in
JAPANESE PERF . (aka scoobie perf mag)

i heard that about the red one >wink.gif>

yeah Banzai is a cool read, i'm doing some stuff for them at the moment and hope to get it published in a month or two.......

so watch this space...... GT-4's of the world look out !

C.

The rest have lighting problems, you dont want anything from the side or rear.

I personally would change the location.

Definitely go with a front shot to show off the gt-4 look. And a side shot so your rims are shown good. I don't really like the stock tails.....you should DEF get JDM (gt-4) taillights......it would set the car off perfectly, since its a gt-4 haha. Other than that, super nice car! (you should just sell your riser blocks and get C/F ones from doggy!) >wink.gif>

As far as I`m aware they are JDM tail lights, as its a JDM car and I havnt changed them, I think the style changed in 95 to the new look ones, I`m quite happy with the standard lights. Cosmetic changes dont realy bother me as I love the look of the car as it is, I`m more of a performance modder really, but all your suggestions are great and will be given some consideration.
I`ll try a new location and post some more pics when I have time. Its a new camera so it`ll take a bit of getting used to all its querks etc. >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif> >biggrin.gif>
Oh well, there goes the photo shoot, some little bastards keyed all down one side of my car last night, paintwork is now FUBAR. If I catch them they will die a slow and painfull death.
Brass-studs, mate >frown.gif>

i hope you can get her patch in ok mate !

Definately C. I like shot in your sig also, you might want to consider a shot of that sort, possibly. Also, make sure that your car has good lighting angle, and that its waxed well and tires shined up nice when you take pics...kinda like Kevstir's car. Thats my two cents. >wink.gif>
