lol luke, did you remember your handbag :)

yeah had a good day overall today, sold abit at work, made some decent money and then had the win tonight. LOL and we even scored a couple of free drinks cause we had to wait while some dick who thought he was a mafia boss or something tried to give the boss there a serving for dodgey food. Boss gave him his money back, told them it was home time for them and not to come back, was the best handling of a wanker customer i have ever seen!

No,

I was trying to stir him up in the daily on the way home from work last night but he wasn't taking the bait.

It looked like he was running staggered rim widths, i was just wondering how his ATESSA is going? :)

staggered rims are fine if you have the same rolling diameter

staggered rims are fine if you have the same rolling diameter

Yeah that right but if you have say a 10 inch rim and an 9 inch rim if you don't run the 1 size tyre ie 245/40/?? on both them (i.e 1 stretched one not) you will have problems; and even then if you have a heap of stretch on one and not the other that will effect your rolling circumferance as well.

Sort of correct on the too much stretch

but you can run a 225x45 front on a 8.5 and 235x40 on a 9 inch

there are more width height combo's you can use to get the same rolling diameter but with a inch difference it may be harder to match

Well acording to my calculations there is a 50mm differance in the rolling circumferance between a 225x45 and a 235x40, there's a 15mm differance in diameter.

    • 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 👌
