Once about 2-3 months ago, helped a mate race his Saloon Car at OP! went to the Opera Bar on the friday night with a mates sister that lives over there! was really good! we were there for about 3-4 days but mainly out near the track tho!

Yeah thats a fair way out of Sydney but did you like OP??? :no:

So didnt get to come into the city???

You know mine will be for sale soon! :no::)

:D what are you going to buy?

looking to gather as much info about skylines before i buy one

its a choice on 3 nissans

a v35 sedan for her

and a r33/r34 coupe or stagea for me

plus still keeping the mg v8

and sell the is200

What are you leaning toward I have always favoured R33 but had a few so want to go toward R32 GTR or stagea they are nice cars

ive ruled out a gtr - but i still want a turbo

be it an r33 gtst or r34 gtt or stagea rs4

Have you why is that??

I like all of them really you have a tough decision :no: Have you taken any of the models you like for a test drive?

Yeh loved OP, but who wouldn't when all we have is a flat prodominatly right handed corner track! :no:

:D what are you going to buy?

Unfortunatly i will look at something other than a import, just so i can focus on getting a house soon! won't be able to afford a skyline and want to mod more and maintain with a house and a single wage! BUT i will be back for more once settled! :)

Its an awesome track huh I have been out there 3 times now and got to see the Z tuned 34 go around at private track day was so "phat" cant wait till I get to drive on it.

Over here they are heavily into track days its good so can really have some fun instead of on the streets

I know what you mean about a house it sucks cant have both when are you selling?

actually havent drive any - anyone offering a ride LoL

the reason why ive ruled out a gtr its out of my price range and wanting something a little tamer than a gtr - as it will be my daily driver

Really lol have to get them an I reckon you still will have a hard time choosing :D

Yeah GTR are loads of fun and mine will be a daily driver but think GST-t are alot more fun not so paronoid about breaking something :no:

We have GTR now and just sits in the garage only come out on weekends if that its sad :P

HOLY SHIT... who thought looking for a new turbo would be this f**ked! im going to slides for a maximium size hiflow now... stupid con artsists!!

That suxs havent had much luck then

Yeah go to Slide he is the bomb and has best prices and wont rip you off :no:

Yeh nice, I saw that Z Tune 34 in the flesh when i went with my mate to Sandown 500 to race! it was in the pits parked near the Porsches! yes is quite the vehicle!

Prob try and sell up in a month or two, Just gotta fix up the cracks in the front bar, and a general clean and tidy up as well as a service and a tune!

    • 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 👌
