Ok had my license 3 years this year

*1 point coming back to me in August :D

*3 Point fine Gt Eastern Hwy caught by Multinova

*Suppose to be 3 point fine discounted to 1 point by coppers also Gt Eastern Hwy

* 1 point fine Kalamunda Rd took for ex (dunno something about the puppy love stage makes u lose your sanity)

* 3 points lost by various multinova incidents one involving a company car.

* pulled over by coppers suppose to recieve a 6 point fine for a roll call of stuff but i was let go

* Coppers switched lights on to chase me at last minute decided not to - let go

* ^ similar to above recently - let go again

* 1 point recently Gt Eastern Hwy on way to SAU meeting at Como but the fine as come thru jus thavent paid it

END TOTAL 2 POINTS :D if it wasnt for multinovas i would be on east st :D

how do these people do it?? I mean if i relyed on coppers they are always more than generous with me and i would still have most of my points. But multinovas just kill me!!

Its just sooo easy to speed - i can tunderstand people like my parent sthat have performance vehicles then drive them around like shopping trolleys!

I've had my r33 for 15 months now and havent lost any points. The last time I lost points was about 4 years ago when a cop car caught me doing 90 in a 60 zone, but as I pulled over for him and stopped and waited for him to turn around and get out of traffic he only gave me a $150 fine and 3 points. Most of my driving occurs in peak hour traffic, so I dont get the chance to thrash it much, when I do its late at night and I try and pick the roads I know there wont be any multinova's on etc... but you never know where the cops are... just luck I havent lost any points as I've had the r33 up to 200km/hr (at least I assume seeing as the tacho reads out to 180km/hr) :D

Hi all,

how many of you out there have a Skyline/fast import and still have all 12 points?  

pfft fast import. look at my car. u dont need to be fast to lose points :)

actually most of my lost points have happened in my mums Toyota Starlet..... all up i have lost 9 but i start getting em back soon.

*Lost 1 - doin 71 in a 60 zone (multinova)

*Lost 3 - doin 80 in a 60 zone

*Lost 4 - doin 120 in a 70 zone (actually got done for a fair bit more but policeman was nice and dropped the speed and reduced the points to 4)

*Lost 1 - 61 in a 50 zone (multinova)

Thankfully though i have corrected my speeding ways and havent had a single fine since November 2001. Mostly i have just been lucky though :P I do have to say that i regret losing all those points cause now insurance hates me and i cant even get a job as a bus driver plus it works out to almost 600 bucks wasted just on fines :( . ne way thanx for listening

    • 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?
