Or more, they have a lower limit than the drivers think they have ability/

I garuntee if walter rolh was driving he would of caught it.

It's not about you thinking you can go faster, it's about knowing HOW to go faster around corners, or harder under brakes that matter.

You may think your a good driver and that you a reaching the limits of the car at a track, but if you jumped in for a lap with a race driver who was driving your car, they'd probably be doing things you didn't think were even possible in your car.

I think because it was a non turbo, you need to drive it at its limit to get any enjoyment, I rekon if he had a turbo he would have treated it with more respect.

Things like bigger brakes and LSD found in turbo models also help with handling majorly. I saw a guy with an SR turbo silvia smash into a gutter in the rain purely because he had no LSD (he was actually pretty talented). When I saw he was one wheeling occasionally, I knew it was a matter of time he would understeer into something.

i wasnt giving anyone a lesson. People come on here and talk **** like

Of course this has nothing to do with the fact hes being a knobber on a public street.

Would u post up here if some p plater came down your street and lost it into your car parked out front of your house, purely because he was doing snakeys @ 70km/h out front of your house? Whose fault is it....the rains?

Not good At all. This is the reason why I wont drive my car till its insured.

even though this is slighty off topic. anyone know of some nice big roads without many cops, for newbies to take out something with some power, to not end up like this driver?

MALLALA heard drift school is coming up in a couple of weeks :D

      I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.

      Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary?

      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.
