Most Skyline owners tend to modify them for better performance. A very small percentage of these owners ever race them.

I was really just looking for what you think the difference between racing, and racing hard is.

I mean there is plenty of people racing and making good times on r200 diffs etc.

And plenty of people not exploding things with over 265 kws......

I see. I meant more than a one off street meeting at their local drag strip. I commend even this but the point wasn't the difference between racing and racing hard so much as it was the difference between racing and not racing at all.

Makes more sense?

Seriously, what the fcuk are you on about? I'm not having a go at R200 diffs. I don't know of any other way I can explain it.

Forget the diffs.

The diffs aren't here right now.

Okay?

Good.

Most Skyline Drivers spend money on making their cars go harder but don't race their cars.

That's ALL!

LOL everything is fine!

You keep wanting to go on about how most skyline owners dont race their cars, which could be said for just about any model of sports car so why go on about that....?

Why would i want to forget about diffs since this is what the thread is about? Either way dont sweat it, i got what i needed from others in this thread.

Take it easy :P

Stuart's car will make a shitload more power and torque than my car and I explode CV's and snap axles 2 at a time with 265kW.

R33 GTST R200 LSD's and std axles = Rubbish in my opinion. The only reason people say they're 'strong enough' is because 99.9999999% of Skyline drivers ESPECIALLY the ones with big HP cars NEVER race their cars hard. They're all soft - especially the GTR drivers :dry:

    • 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? 
    • 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.
