Free photos for a PDXer

Hey,

I tried to offer up some free photos for the Oly/Tac RX7 owners, but nothing ever really panned out between my moving and everyone else's schedules.

Now that I'm in Portland, I'd like to shoot a clean FD to expand my automotive portfolio past Subarus. If you have an FC3S, I'd like to take a look at it too. I'm a little more picky with what appeals to me as far as FCs go though.

Shoot me a PM or IM (ej25power-aim)if you're in the area with a few shots of your car.

Right now, I'm free every Thursday and Sunday.

Also, if any of you could suggest a good location, I'd appreciate that. The only area I can think of would be the NW Industrial area.

PM me some photos of it so far. I'm not in a huge rush.

Basically, I want it to be very clean and to my tastes since it's for my portfolio.

Awesome, I love white. What are your other plans for the body? Wheels? Shave the wing/emblems? Refinish the paint?

Do you still skate? Are you or any of your friends really good? I'm also looking to find some skaters to shoot.

the paint is in hella good cond. just needs a good buffing, i will be getting ssr reverse mesh comp. rims or some sort of volk, 17's and wide, lol. I'm going to keep the wing on, my old one had no wing but I actually like it on the t2, i will also have a cargo cover, the cusco rear tri-point strut bar, probably end up selling the racing beat turbo back exhaust and do some custom **** to apexi n1 dual's. but the car will be low as **** when the megans get put on,i don't really skate anymore, none of my friends really do, tryin to get good again, but it's hard. so you like it, the t2?

EDIT:also will probably be getting a sparco wheel/hub

but the wheels, sterring wheels and the exhaust will probably be the summer, what you saw there is how it will look+sparco's+coilvoers will be on it for sure

Alright, just don't lower it too much Don't want to throw off the geometry.

Like I said, I'm not in a huge rush. As long as your car stays clean, I'm down to shoot it.
What kind of Volks did you have in mind?


Ok, anyone with an FD want some photos? Even though I'm not in a hurry, I want to shoot! I've been learning some new techniques, and I want to try them out.

for the volks, still not sure i <3 the te37's but everyone has them, i'm tryin' to stay different. the car will stay clean no doubt,oooh i'm also looking at the advan sa3's, you know the 3 spokes?but my buddy justin, the dude who is a d1 drifter, says he might be able to get me the ssr mesh rims, and they look sick, black with a polish lip.and i think once I get it back and clean it up, def. need to wait for a nice day and do a shoot for sure, what kind of camera are you using, also what are you rockin?

Right now I'm shooting with a D50, but by the summer I might be upgrading to a D80 or D200. I haven't decided just yet.

I drive a Subaru Impreza 2.5RS , hence the screen name lol. I like RX-7s quite a bit though. I'd love to have an FC just so I could do the body work.

No togue for me. I'll hit up an autox if I can get in for free. Other than that, I'm a lapping day kind of guy. I haven't been to PIR yet, but from the track map, it doesn't look like it will be a good course for my car. I like it tight.

Rmagic13b-PMed you.
