i was at the UPI launch last friday its a pretty good movie

watched the movie at blacktown then went to eastern creek to see cars drift

Yeah I went as well, got free tickets from Fast fours

it was pretty damn good, worth seeing!! :D

The drifting etc afterparty was brilliant... very beer and dinner!!! 10 beers later, I ended up smashed. Free beer + tommo = bad, haha.

in relation to the drive in, do you hear the sound through your radio? if so does that mean that you have to run your car stereo off your battery for the whole movie??

yep I would think so... tho they do have these dodgy speakers u attach to the driver and passenger windows but they are shit quality.

Easy solution to that - you park on a hill anyway, so assuming you're driving a manual, just clutch it if you have to. Or bring jumper cables (and the knowledge or instructions to connect them properly so as not to blow up your computer).

If you're paranoid and your car exhaust isn't too loud, crank it over during the movie to make sure you're not killing the battery. And run it for a few minutes during the intermission (most drive-ins still have them around the middle of the movie) and between the first and second movies too.

Theres 2 movies, intermission between them.. a guy walks around at the end with one of those portable jumper things.. youd wanna be careful though with the computer.. I went and saw it this afternoon, couldnt wait :( if you go not expecting anything, you should enjoy it..

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.

      Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary?

      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.
