A select few of you here know the details of what i have planned and the actual specifics that go along with it, now unless you've living under a rock for the past few months you'll have picked up that it will indeed be sporting the big GTR badge.

However, my dilema is that i simply have not driven one yet. Now i don't want to go around to dealerships or individual sellers under the false flag that I am ready to make a purchase, it's disrespectful and dishonest.

So essentially I'd really appreciate it if one of our members could let me take theirs for a spin, I don't need to drive Jun's (although i would'nt decline the offer hahaha) It doesn't even need to be modded, I just want to drive one before mine hits the road some time from now and to inspire me to work harder whilst I'm getting it ready.

So if anyone in our beloved crew could give me some of their time to let me take their GTR for a drive I'd really appreciate it, on your terms, at your time, wherever suits you.

I could really use the inspiration so any opportunity would be hugely appreciated, i know it's a big ask......

I was considering letting u drive it since u live around the coner but then i thought it wouldnt be a good example for you with the sequential trans and the quad plate clutch it just wouldnt be fair for u it might turn u off 32's and id hate for that to happen.

You're right there is a calculated risk of me losing my passion for 32's but you know something.....I'm prepared to take that risk, shall we say around 8 this evening? lol :lol:

I actually wouldn't mind popping round just to have a look at it, i've never even seen the bloody thing!

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
