Aw spotted a Koala sitting on the road in the hills just before - Adelaide-Lobethal Rd - sitting just to the side a little but still on the road - felt as though we had to do something with the way it was sitting there the poor thing. Me and my mates in my car pulled over as far to the side as possible with the hazards on. Really wanted to help it but couldnt risk getting minced to bits by it's claw wouldnt have a clue how to handle it until I got home just then and googled it. Poor thing was sitting there licking it's wounds, blood on it's snout and blood around it on the ground. Cars driving past were slowing down as soon as they saw us - the ones driving harder would have hit it if it werent for us standing around there lights from the car etc. Called up RSPCA asked for advice on what to do with it - the guy that answered was fair useless and sounded like he didnt give a rats. Koala ended up getting scared and walked(almost limping) to the side of the road, infront of cars that slowed down/stopped by us, stayed there for a bit then walked back across the road and up a tree and stayed there.

Sounds silly but couldnt leave the the poor thing there - had to atleast try to do something and got it off the road and back into a tree.

i get to go through the work inbox til feb, yay. f**k i love reading spam emails :(

Anyone see the lightening display lastnight? I was putting my car away lastnight when I caught a glimpse of some lightening. Stayed outside for about 30 minutes and watched it and it didn't rain once! It was surreal!

yeah i was at grange jetty when it was happening don't use graphite rods in electrical storms my rod was sparking pretty weird and my mates rod was doing the same thing. lol

awww Vu quiet the humanitarian Kudos

I went back to it today to get a precise location and reported it to the Cleland Wildlife Park animal rescue. Exactly 15.2km straight up Magill Rd into Adelaide-Lobethal Rd just before a bend - vehicle can be parked at the bend - Koala is sitting just up on a small tree. I went to the RSPCA they got a cartoon picture of a Koala on their front window with it's arm in bandage along with other cartoon animals... but when I went inside they say they cant handle that kind of wildlife even if I brought it to them! Useless. Hope someone gets to it to provide some help - this is about all I can do without getting mauled by a Koala lol

Good to see some compassion in this world Vu.

Some days you just cannot drive past when you see some of these things.

I remember one day walking home from school and I walked passed this bush next to the footpath and I heard this rustling then a crunch. I look down and I had stood on a bird that quickly flew out of the bush. I picked it up and put it back into the bush and covered it up a bit (At this point the thing was already dead). I just felt so bad for it I was pretty upset for a few days or so.

But the thing was I didn't just want to leave it on the footpath, so I moved it off into the bush so it was kind of hidden from anything

RSPCA are useless.

I took a wounded dog to the RSPCA and they wouldn't deal with it. They said they would take it in but the dog would need to be put down and they'd charge me some $47 to take it off me!!! WTF?

Talk about animal abuse ... they're the biggest offenders! :P

lol unlucky Jarrad, thats liek the video of the baseball guy pitching the ball into a bird as it flies past infront of the batter, eg http://www.therogers5.com/Downloads/VideoClips/

    • 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 👌
