Actually they stopped allowing runs at 11:15pm because well... they felt like it. So 2 of 2 nites that the weather was fine they ended the night early because well... they felt like it. The other nite it was rained out 1hr 20 after the nite started so of 15hrs racing we've seen 7hrs.

NismoGod you got 13.45 with only full exhaust?? What other mods man??

Thats awesome time for just full exhaust.

I got full exhaust and my best was 14.10 at 100MPH but on street tyres

But my launches were really crap but.. Need more practice!!

siddr20 yeah i got a 13.426 on semi slicks. 60ft 1.997 and 103.5 mph. i have a full turbo back exhaust. its a split dump pipe with 3" system with a 5" hi flow cat. no other mods except a pod. but i really can only take what the previous owner told me. he imported it april 06 and did nothing with it, so maybe something else has been done, but i doubt it cause the power isnt too huge. i did a 13.700 on my 19" which has a 60ft 2.018 at 102.5 mph. there is still some time with the current setup will the slicks, hope to drop another .1-.2 off the time. the more time i go to the drag the quicker im getting so time will tell.

Nothing special their tonight except a Cobra, everything else was either a regular or just a VX Commodore bashing in the 13's.

I got to the drags at about 6:45pm and it was 36c, 20mins later it was 23c and so windy I thought the big undercover area at the top was going to lift out of the concrete and blow away.. how crazy is that.

    • 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?
