Nightime Photos

Bored yesterday and took a few nighttime photos. Going to do a real photoshoot soon hopefully, let me know what you think. I've got the mod bug and want opinions on the photos, new things to do for my car and whatever else . Thanks

Nismo aero kit looks nice in the pics. Lowering springs on the car would make a heck of a difference in how your car looks and feels when driven. Even a mild drop like with the Eibach Pro-kit springs or the 350Z/G coupe springs combo would work for this. Take a look at the suspension or FAQ thread stickied at the top of the sedan forum for further info.

Yea ive been thinking about a drop for a while, and am probably going to wait for the BR coilovers that Lumpia is working on to come out. I may just drop on eibach prokit in the meantime. Thanks for the feedback

nice pics but get a tripod and slow down the shutter speed and increase the sensitivity


This pic was taken when it was pitch black outside.

Yeah a tripod works best, but one thing about the shot above is the street lamp kind of takes away from the car.

Absolutely... I don't consider myself to be any good at taking pictures. Just giving the guy some friendly advice. Nice shot BTW!

Here's a few more... Nothing special

This was @ zdays 2009. It just shows how the colors can still pop out hard despite the lack of light.


Here's a pic of Stephen's car also at zdayz. I had to set the camera on the stairs to get the shot hence the frass in the way...

I'm using a Nikon D90 with no photoshop (some pics I retouch on PS but not these).

I just started messing around with manual mode. Also I have a Cybershot T700 which is pretty nice but I only really use it for close-ups and portraits.

If you want a ride in a Zfront springs/Gcoupe rear springs/shocks let me know. I'm also in Central Jersey. It's a cheap upgrade with a very nice looking drop but it's still high enough for Jersey roads.

You can search my screenname for my pics of the car/drop.

car looks good buddy. as others have said, a drop would really finish it off.

I had the same setup as blklude98 as well. Just took it off actually and sold it. Loved the setup. It really was a nice drop and ride.

Hope to set you up with a detail soon man!
