NM, some of the pics looked a little "adjusted". Maybe it's just the exposure.

yeah like shibbiy said, i just took a nice long exposure to soak up the light.

Some of those pictures has the white balance off. I figured out today how to actually adjust white balance. This is the difference (a couple pics from today):
This is where the white balance is off like the above

and fixed


Hopefully my pictures will come out even better in the future

Heres two HDR's. Photobucket really messes with the quality though..


I don't take this car out much but I have waved at people driving by with that rotary motor. They just look at me funny.

My eardrums told me they were mad at me and wouldn't talk to me. So I laid down 16 lbs. of shut the hell up to the rear half of the car. We now communicate regularly, and we don't have to yell at each other in the car anymore.

Thats only 16 pounds huh? That seems worthwhile to me, and I'm big on saving weight.

Yeah, it's not heavy, as anyone who has used it knows.

Towards the middle of the car I have one layer, then two above the trunk, and three in the trunk above the muffler. I installed 4 layers on the exhaust heat shield. I did all of it by hand, and I'm happy with how it looks, and more importantly it dampens the exhaust noise. I know exactly how thick each layer is, and it will never vibrate loose or come off unless I for whatever crazy reason decide to take it off. The noise from the exhaust is less, and it's like I made my turbos spool louder.

I've lightened the car in other ways, and 16 pounds is nothing compared to the benefit of having a girl actually enjoy riding in the car with me.

Here's one more of the trunk area:
