>>4205738I have the Tamron spend a little more and buy one, it's just fuckin great. 1:1, AF clutch and rotating filter ring, tripod mount, it's titties. I paid 300 for mine. Awesome IQ and color reproduction and at further distances it's pretty good too. You can get right up on bugs and spiders without them knowing about it.
Nikon made a few good AF macro lenses, you can find an AF version of the legendary 55 Macro for under 200 easy and the AF version is 1:1 without an adapter unlike the MF version, but optically they are identical. Legendary optics, read the Ken Rockwell review he isn't laying about it, I own both models.
>>4205739Straight cut gear set for my Bonneville land speed car. PAR in Australia makes a 1-5 straight cut synchro set for my gearbox and for double I can get a straight cut dog engagement set with double width and with straight cut final drive, earplugs optional. They make the G-series Mazda box bombproof we have guys throwing 600whp at them with no issues. I already have the box and two reinforcement plates, I have the same Quaife LSD the 800hp BTCC Mondeos used, and I found a shop that will cryotreat and shotpeeen my case, bell housing and shift forks. That 2500 will also buy the Centerforce 725FX twin plate clutch I'll need to hold that power.
