I was joined in 2003 by the user name of @(*_*)@ and same as nissansilvia.com., then one day I updated my email and all the password, but I totally forgot about it, therefore I couldn't login and I'm using this user name now. Anyway, I've owned my R32 for at least 6 years now, and I also find most the guys I knew back in the day are no longer here, may be Maxx is the only one I know. Sometimes when I checked my old topic, I found out all the people have updated their photos and informations too, everythings really changed from the last few years. :laugh:

At the hip replacement clinic

Or we could all meet for a game of Lawn Bowls (Ladies please bring a plate of Cucumber Sandwiches)

Just a few ideas and places we are likley to know LOL

Man I miss the good ol days when at least one of my GTRs was always working.

Sold my R33 GTSt back in 2000, & in April of 2000 bought my 95 R33 GTR with

only 13000km from Prestige Walkerville. Raced at the first Drag Combat in May 2002

when the HKS race GTR was there. I was pulling 10.7 back then. Last time I raced the car was

April 2003 with 9.45. Almost 4 years ago!!! Is nearly ready for the haul interstate to

have another go.

The 97 GTR I bought from Douglas Dinan back in 03 when I had the R34 Vspec is

almost back on the road as well after another engine problem (hope this is the last time)

Keen to hit the hills soon.post-538-1168602298.jpg

Jesus dude............. YOU ARE A WEAPON!! :laugh:

AIR should be back sooooooooon! Will be good to see you out there!

I could of been an old skool member if I could of found the site.

Munro told me about the site when he had his evo,r34,r33 x2 back early 03 or 02 but I couldn't bl#*dy find it . All I could find was the nsv one and a few other's but munro said that skylines australia was the only one worth looking at . LOL

Took me 3-4 years to finally find it .LOL

Better late than never I surpose :laugh:

I'm not quite bowls & cucumber sandwiches age but, I did buy Hippy's (Hiep) R33 several years back & if your wondering he moved to Sydney not so long after that.

mmm....p0rn!! :no: What sort of times you aiming for Munro with the new set up? Is it running on methanol??

We have changed our plans slightly, originally we were only going to run methanol & slicks & shoot for the outright time records, but due to the lack of track here (& a new baby in our lives), the amount of times I can travel interstate to test the car will be limited.

So, the car is currently having a huge water to air intercooler fitted where that polished intake pipe is now, & we are going to tune the car on petrol (the good stuff of course) & run on Radial tyres.

As the car has standard body, no chassis mods, still uses normal gearbox(not air shifted), & normal clutch(not slider), the car can run in Street AWD class at Sports Compact meetings. Petrol & radial tyres compulsary.

It will take time, & there are many variables (time, money, breakages, luck, etc), but the goal is to run the GTR to 8.50 @ 165+ mph on radial tyres. If we can do it, that will be the world record.

Private testing at Heathcote is the next step. Hopefully that will be happening over the next month or so.post-538-1168734329.jpg

Old skool member here too, not that i used to talk all that much.

Just used to read the forums and come to most of the events.

Had an r32 gts4 back then which was sold in december 2005 and now own a manual r34 4 door which was bought in nov 2006.

    • 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 👌
