Bit off topic, but wow I have to say they are great looking photos Scathing, are they yours? I'm just starting out with a DSLR now, but my photos look nothing like that! Any details on camera, lens, exifs on those photos would be much appreciated to help me learn.

Yeah, they're all mine.

I haven't bought a DSLR yet (but I will as soon as I can scrape the cash together). I'm still using a Canon Digital Ixus right now (pretty standard Point and Shoot camera).

Learning how to shoot takes time. There are some good resources on the 'net for learning how to take good shots (I quite like this one on Dan's Data), but I also tend to touch up the images in Photoshop, which is why they look half decent.

I don't add or completely change things around, but I make sure they're a bit more vibrant and in focus before uploading.

The best tip I can give you when it comes to taking a good photo is to take lots of bad ones. Play around with the settings, so you know what setting does what. Otherwise, try the Photography subforum on SAU. A lot of the guys on JDM Style Tuning are photography buffs and its hanging out there that got me into taking photos in the first place.

Hey guys.

Arranged another cruise for the weekend before Christmas.

http://www.350z-tech.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=34061

This one is starting at a slightly more reasonable time.

Its just occurred to me that the entire period might be double demerits with massive police presence, so I might call it off.

However, if you are interested post up and we can see if people want to do a leisurely run, or maybe change our route to somewhere like Wollongong and hit the coast up for lunch.

I can't make the weekend prior since I'm doing Kids Race Day.

    • 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 👌
