got it now ~ one thing i hate about their regulations is that you need to be a solicitor to bloody read them...and understand them fully.

When I read the one about wheel sizes it seemed to me that if a car in the same model run has bigger you can go 1 inch wider than that...but it wasnt very clear...

hehe..funny..if the owner of the tint place gets busted for tinting the windows to non ADR specs he's in trouble ;)

BTW: that links contains most roadworthy/ADR items in VIC and all the requirements. Its pretty good, even if its a bit technical.

Yup, I didn't know that until I read that too. That means many Excel and Lancer drivers should be pinned for having 18" wheels on their cars. How many times is _that_ enforced though, and yet if your car is 1cm too low, bang.

i find that the r34 has no traction whatsoever even with tcs on.

i am in straight line in 2nd and decide to step on it a bit and it begins to lose traction.. this is in the dry and i can feel the power back off to stop the wheels from spinning up...

is this usually the case or have i just got really crappy tires, though new, i have never heard of the brand.. it's WAH"somthing"

mine currently has simex too, they are cheapies but seem to grip just fine, they are around $170>180 each or so I am told.

Ed: not much, just cat-back [kakimoto 3.5"], pod filter and :)

Less than you by looking at your avatar!

hopefully around 160 - 170 rwkws

    • 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 👌
