Hey guys and girls,

Im currently in the market for a R34 coupe GT-T, for some reason i have found the yellow ones really appealing but unfortunately the few yellow ones i have found have been sold when i have rung up, and the other colour i was contemplating was the white, do you think that the white in the r34 is just meh or is it just me?

Cheers in Advance

lol im about to step on some toes when I say and I apologies in advance. In my opinion, the ONLY kit that looks nice on an R34 GTt is the "other" Nismo kit, no not the one that everyone else has with the awkward looking mesh grill and the out of proportion rear bar. Its the one that was seen on Jspec a while ago, the silver 4 door Gtt with the very nice nismo bar, skirt and wing, everything about that kit seems to flow well with the Gtt's squarish design. Everything else seem to ruin cohesion. Having said that, the stock Gtt kit is pretty enough as it is.

I vote .. Yellow or bayside blue :rolleyes::D :D

Black is sexi ive got it .. Real hot when waxed like said above reflects everything and looks bad

\White looks really good with the Cwest kit or better with the impul kit with carbon bonnet or something really nice :)

Silver can't fade, it's a clear over base colour. only solids colours will fade, yellows and reds. When Iwas looking for an R34 I looked at plenty of red and yellow ones and they where all different shades of red and yellow. I bought a silver one.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      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.
