Hahaha thanks mate. Was waiting to see if anyone would notice the mowing lol. Yeah that shroud was a little difficult for me to swallow at first, but it's grown on me and love it. Much better to look at it in person, plus it's better than looking at brown soot stains I suppose. Don't have to polish it every week now :D

Took some Photos on the weekend

They were only quick photos so the location isnt the best and the lighting isnt that great but oh well.... lol I had to play with my camera It'd been a while since I'd used it

The First two are taken with: Cannon EOS 550D, theyve been re-sized so noone throws rocks at me for posting massive photos and I'm not to happy with them (My car also needs a good detail) but oh well

interesting exhaust r 2, do you have a sound clip?

Na i don't actually.

It's a Nismo exhaust, 3" straight through. It's meant for a 4 door, reason why it sticks out a little.

Its fairly quiet while cruising, but with 263rwkw it sounds mean on full boost.

you seriously need to get some decent pics taken, looks sweet

Yeh they were taken with my phone camera.

I was contemplating on selling it as I had a few defects, but I grew some balls and decided to fix 'em up and do things legally.

I've got a few things to do to it. I need a new front bar, as it's cracked to the sh*thouse.

Otherwise it's still all good.

Appreciate the comments.

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
