Just went for a cruise to the shops.

Looked at weather on the net first. No rain.

as soon as i fin washing the car it comes down. always does. always.

Also. A high number of ambos with lights on tonight. Seems the usual tailgaters cant do it in the wet,

Because of you Chad (yes, I'm blaming you :D ), I am now $10,000 poorer.

I pick it up tomorrow night. So it looks like I'm back into another Skyline :bunny:

Cant wait!

Nice one Kye :) Looks like a winner for sure :bunny:

-D

That 33 front on a 32 is disgusting!

Agreed.

And while rain always does come at the worst time, it actually worked in my favour and washed off a big ass bird shit on my roof... 5 seconds of flannel work and shes GONE

-D

wootage

Acquired a set of GTR sway bars tonight :D

RB25 BOV will be on it's way early next week :bunny:

Mate has a bleed valve I can have for free :bunny:

Recently got around to fitting black mesh to the openings in the front bar and grille so it looks neater :)

"the list" of shit to do to the car is slowly being ticked off, and so far a lot of the shit has cost me less than what I was expecting :D

some days i wish i never stepped in a kitchen

this morning one of my f***n fryers decided to catch alight so we had to close the whole kitchen down and call the CFS, then tonight, i went and burnt myself aswell as being extrmeley paranoid about the other fryer and the ovens catching alight, arrghhh! not fun!!

lol nah nothing like that at all steve - i wasnt even near the fryers,not even using them, was chopping something tunred around and the thing was on fire!!!!

Wwas very scary thats for sure.........took a good couple of hourse before my heart rate went back to normal and i stoppped shaking.......

first instinct was i grabbed the fire blanket that was right next to me and chucked it over, aswell as turning off the fryers, and the stove tops, ovens etc

ive never had it before and i dont want it to happen again, im just glad i wasnt in the middle of service when it happened.

    • 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?
