That Z is amazing. You could have done some better angles of the cars. That brick backdrop is amazing, but its unfortunate you had the camera angle tilted like 40 degrees. I hate having to tilt my head to see the subject.

I would take the Z back there by itself (nothing against the FD) and do a proper shoot against that brick background. Photoshop some tone into the picture. Maybe focus on back and white too. Its a perfect car for B+W photography.

edit: make sure to take your licence plates off when you are taking pictures, especially the front plate. Also, it looks like your brother spilled gasoline down under the gas cap. Clean that up too.

Here is a little Photoshop adjust I did just for the hell of it.

Thanks for the compliments!
Yes that is gasoline and it needs a new gas cap. It's still a work in progress. As for my
photography skills, sorry just learning as I go and I don't have much experience in photoshop.
The pic above looks sick, thanks for the edit.

The previous owner I believe used to live around that area in Surrey.
I will definatley go out solo and do some more pics and learn how to use my camera.
If anybody with a camera is interested in going out with me and taking some pics of the car, pm me and we can get together and rip around the city :-)

you should consider hitting up waterfront road for pictures

I've been there more than a few times and pretty good place for photoshoots.

Nice car! Did you buy it off of a Korean guy in Surrey by anychance? The car used to belong to my best friend's brother. I'm glad to see someone is taking good care of her!

Sadly I have a 240z that's being neglected in my parents garage right now....

I think I bought it from Charlie or something like that in Surrey. Besides the bodywork and paint, everything else has been improved or completely swapped out such as engine, differential, suspension, brakes, reinforced chassis, etc etc.

That FD is the reason I didn't buy JDM. And the reason the prices of real FD's (LHD USDM/CDM) cars have crashed. Broke ass looking ghetto car.

I prefer left hand drive too but the price is right on the RHD. And ghetto? I think not. Still a beautiful car.
