finally i think the airport in Bangkok will finally open tommorrow so i can f**kEN come home if not i gotter travel a further 3 hours at 12 am to a military air base to catch a flight at 8am.............i just wanna come home and pick up my car and so Ryan can put my new bakes on........all ive been doin is shopping and wasting money coz im that bored

Could be worse man, at least your comin back....see ya soon!

might be a bit of an out there chance

anyone got a CAD file for the bottom half of an RB20/25 inlet plenum (the runners to the block)

mate of mine is going to be knocking up some custom forward facing plenums, and needs a cad file (or at worst a spare lower plenum half that no-one wants) so he can get started

who's ya mate work for matty? how is he making it?

he works for etsa lol, he's got a bloke who can cut the stuff out of 16mm aluminium

he did briefly explain it but i was driving home from work when he rang me

all good, he had started to mod a standard plenum (until i got highlighted the negative side of that), and he said it was hard to weld new material to existing. was going to be much easier to go all new instead

MAN i just replaced the negative battery terminal clamp... and god damn that was a fricking pain for something hardly significant at all. I cant be ass doing the positive - I'll do it when it becomes a problem. Damn the idiot that designed the battery in the boot directly under the parcel shelf.

ruby those vids remind me of a certain kmart tyre place

now i was in mums sic commo when i was waiting on a very busy to turn right, was there with crazy traffic for like 5min atleast.

finally gap about to happen and i look up at kmart at this fool that appears to be about to snake me and pull out before i can from the private rd. he rolls out sure enough and i notice he aint turning i think who the f is this idiot driving and look in the drivers seat no 1s there :rolleyes: the car rolls by scraps my mums commo on the side and i run after it trying to stop it from slamming into others cars. was having trouble stopping it from the window yank so stupid me stands infront and go's for the rugby scrum stop lukily i got it too stop and it didnt push me over but yeah tools tried to fix up the car half assed when i bailed them out of way more damage to other cars. dudes like fk forgot the hand brake

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
