Hi Guys,

Had a few unfortunate things occur over the past few months, including the death of my father -my only relative - meaning my Skylines plans are on hold - at least for a while. Not super happy about it I can tell you. There are some big issues, not least of which right now is space.

Thats where you can help

I need to get rid of a heap of R33 GTS front cut leftover bits. There is a whole heap of interior panels, blinker arms - wiper bottles, brake lines, glovebox, heater box and piping, - look heaps of stuff. I'll get some photos over the next few days - but its free to a good home. It got to be at least $500 worth of stuff.

So, whats the catch? I'd really prefer a known SAU ACT memeber gets it, so its given good use around the ACT - not just someone who'll sell for max profits - if I had more time I'd do that myself.

The other thing is you'll need to bring a wagon/ute/trailer/van (not a Skyline - may not fit) and take it all away.. I live in Wagga Wagga, about 2 1/4 hours away. It'll only be one good wagonload - but I really need the space soon (in the next 2 weeks maximum). I'm not interested in seperating any little parts you need - if I was going to do that I'd be selling it myself. It all goes in one lot.

So, any takers? I'd hate to end up throwing something useful away here.

I think he means that whoever wants stuff needs to get it all, not just pick little bits out that we need. Has anyone got a garage that will fit the stuff, as my car will fit all this stuff if we have somewhere to keep it, like an SAU salvos bin. then everyone can come and get the bits they need as they see fit.

if not, i'll happilly make the trip then store it all at my parents farm in Bathurst, which again makes it harder for people to get to it.

Terminal is exactly right. I need the space - and am giving you the parts as payment for getting them I guess. There would have to be at least some useful stuff down there. Will get some pics in tomorrows light, as I said there is at least some useful stuff there.

Thanks for the kind words also guys.

As I said, i'd be more than happy to go and collect it all for him, just need somewhere to store it. my missus would kill me if i dumped it in our garage, so if anyone has a shed out back that's half empty share the love, and we can all have a spare parts bin to dip into when we need something.

otherwise i'll just take it back to bathurst and keep it there until people need the parts.

Ok, so we have a lift but no storage - any takers??? It would be great to get rid of it this weekend, or next at the latest.

As I said, a cleaver investor could make some money off this stuff I'm sure witha bit more time than I.

Zant,

I'll take it, I'll pick it up sometime next week - I can't this weekend - then try to get over to the xmas party at cotter. That way the other guys can look at it and/or take it. As stated, I don't really want it unless there is a GT3076R in it ... lol I'm pm you my number and we can talk about it.

    • 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?
