Nice ride.

Just stay calm, watch your speed, obey the rules, watch out for one way signs and you'll be fine. Good luck!

First time I went for my P's I went down a one way street... second time was perfect except for one wide turn :D

Make sure you come to complete stop at stop signs! That one almost got me believe it or not haha. Dont look for oncoming cars until youve stopped.

that one DID get me a week ago. now i have to wait till 29th of august :D

its really really intence. not much we can say can help cause once ur in the car u kinda forget everything. but u should be right. looking back on it its really easy if u dont make the stupid mistake i did

Thumbs up to you mate.

Not only for getting a skyline, but being smart about it and going the NA route for a few years to get your experience up.

Best of luck tomorrow champ. Dont stress a heap over it, its not actually as bad as you think it is.

Let us know how it goes :D

woot, passed!!! :)

lost 1 point for turning (did 1 slightly wide turn) other then that it was perfect!

i was so nervous before, but once i exited out of vic roads i was fine and the 20 mins went so fast.

so happy that i passed! cant wait to see you all on the roads :)

leigh.

just be a big drama queen one looking at ur mirros, make it OBVIOUS that ur checking em (even if u gotta act like uve been b*tch slapped left n right, do it)

indicate for as long as it takes for the inspector to notice.

always come to a complete stop as stated above wen dealing with stop signs.

in essense.....drive like a granny

**update**

so now he tells me his passed LOL

good job man :)

where can you get sau stickers from with out being a official member? or do you have to pay the whole member package thing?

Well done mate.. :)

As for the stickers ( Members only )

The membership is only 75 dollars .. you will spend more than that on fuel this week..

As above... except its $70 first year.

$50 every year after.

You'll save you joining fee on many of the perks ie.

Alarm installation ($150 saving)

Servicing (100's there)

Tyres (more $$$)

etc etc ;)

Benefits far outweigh the very minimal cost

    • 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 👌
