schmiko! can't believe you won with stock rims, I guess its a testiment to how good the bodywork is then if they can overlook wheels in the process considering how many show cars have crazy expensive rims on them while in shows.

have you considered trying to get sponsorship from a wheel shop or something?

I just borrowed one of those MOTHER hand buffing machine - FARKING BRILLIANT.

Did the GTR and the Liberty over the long weekend - and what a great result.

I will be buying one of these gems this week/next week as they do making a shit job quite simple and easy.

Cant recommend them highly enough. Seriously one of the must haves if your serious about keeping your car tip top.

Ahh Mothers buffing machine, 70% is done by hand

O there about 160$, Pads are aboput 16$ to replace. If your doing the mothers propertly use the three steps.

1. Wax Cleaner/Removes Oxidation

2. Sealer and Glaze

3. Pure Carnaubra Waz

4. Showtime instant Detailer

Go to bunnings and buy 3x 3 packs of microfiber cloths.

Use the 2 cloths for each of the coats, one to apply one to remove! Keep turning your cloth around also. I cant stress this enough using different cloths for each stage.

Allow the wax to dry on the surface before removing, it has to marry to the surface. Other wise you are wasting your time and money. Dont be shy with the last coat of wax wipe it on so theres a lovley covering. Theres really no need to rub it in just so it coveres all the surface.

Be patient allow a good day for this. Always make sure your car is washed

before you do this!

    • 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 👌
