yer i cant ****ing wait lol, but ill have my cooler then and a lot of shit fixed (was misfiring on the way home, not sure if it was doing that when i raced, it felt fine but whether i jsut didnt notice coz of the surroundings or not is another thing)

:D i was rushing off my head when i went for the first time... the first time i went was with sam and steve and was only meant to watch... they coned me into doing it and i was shaking like a mofo!

15.325 on my first run... beat a supercharged VS V6 and the second run dumped clutch a little too much and got beaten by a VT SS 5.7litre by half a second :( was so much fun... i wish i could have gone tonight... but no cash... im looking for 14s.... shouldnt be that hard

Great night guys, good to see predator, R31Nismoid, phat32 and Al having fun on the strip. Jet-33 you p***y you should have had a go, no traction - EXCUSES!!!! Practice makes perfect!!. Good to see predator dip into a 13, he must be happy with that.

Anyway after a few crappy runs, the best time achieved was 12.3 @ 107mph. Quite happy with that considering the mods I've got (full exhaust, pod filters, adj cam gears and 12psi boost). Clutch was slipping like f**k on the last run so nismo twin plate is going in next week.

Pity we didn't get to see more of you guys out there having a bit of fun....

i came away with a 13,85 ... can't remember the MPH.

around 100 i think.

But that was changeing at 6 grand or less cause the fuel pump is still stuffed.

if i take it to peak power at 6600... it'll drop more.

Full street trim too

13.981 was my best @ 95.93mph

Did about 4 runs - surprisingly my first was my best! Was trying a few more things on the other ones I guess, so maybe slower. Think with a good run and slight change of setup i can get a mid-13

Good fun anyway! And good to see quite a few of the SAU guys there such as phat32, Al, dj_lethal, jet33, r31_nismoid, hotsky, sniffy, jagr33, horus, r32_envy, and prolly some more.

So looks like i got the best run that night of the SAU GTS-T boys so pretty happy about that.. suck it down :P

good fun yeah.. definitely ! Every time a bit nervous, but only real comp i had was that one next to me that pulled a 9.. that was funny.. rest were just slower commonwhores and things. Would have been to line up directly against SAU guys but its a bit hard, it was generally just line up to whoever was next to u in he line

..and i know i can do better and prolly setup my car slightly different next time so its all a learning thing.

Hardest thing is just listening for wheel spin with a dumb-ass helmet on which blocks out much of the useful feedback u need.

andrew u may be a big bloke... but ur a soft little marshmellow puff... what a *****... cant believe after all ur ranting about it u didnt run!!!

if i was so scared of being beat down id bitch slap u :D

i alsways go out there, dotn always run my car

maybe i wasnt paying attention but your skinny ass wasnt even there...unless u were standing sideways and i couldnt see u :shake:

y would i bother thrashing my car at the track when it hasnt changed (in mods) in 2 weeks since i last went there....just common sense i think..i prefer to look after my car than thrash it 4 no real reason....

its like dumpin the clutch adn quick shiftin off the lights when some idiot in a riced up honda wants to run or sumthin...

    • 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? 
    • 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 👌
