$1200 - YOU BASTARD !! :D :D that is the cheapest job i have seen, even for "mates" rates. And that job looks very pro as well -you just gotta get a bodykit and some wheels now for it and you'll have a very nice line

Can he do any good deals for SAU members? There is a few things I'd need done on mine...

No, wouldn't be expecting so. But even a reasonable discount to any panel shop is going to be a good deal, as long as its a good job.

I will need my front bumper resprayed soon.... although pearl full body would be nice... :D Anyway, let him know, and if he's ok with doing anything else, i'll PM you what i need doing at the moment and he can give me a bit of a price.

predator: no worries, let me know.

meggala: yeah you could call it a practice job, but hes in his last semester and has been working in the field for a few years.

The pics dont really do the job much justice.. it looks much better in real life :D

coco: I'll find out

hippy: I think it can be put on any colour with the clear coat, how good it'll look is another story. I saw a white gemini with the same blue pearl and it looked kinda... well.. feminine.

The pearl is a sky blue so when mixed with black becomes midnight blue. Its pretty mad, some angles its jet black, when the sun hits it, its mnidnight blue :)

Does this means you don't have to strip the base paint before applying the new coat? Just put the pearl coat on top?

My bonnet has a few fades already as well as a deep scratch on the boot n few other blemishes... trying to justify a full respray of pearly wine red... I guess not even the best french wine could beat that luscious colour :)

    • 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 👌
