math not ya good subject? :P thought watching for card counters you would have some skillz

real cars come with boost gauges :P and only milk n juice come in 2LT etc etc

actually, im not bad with maths. occupational hazard.

haha, you can keep your crappy inaccurate standard boost gauge, and you can cram your extra 600cc's...

Wow ... I just landed an awesome job at work! (sense the sarcasm?)

Create a directory on our intranet and transfer 10 years worth of Development Plan CDs onto it. 12 CDs per year x 10 years = over 100 CDs (some months had no Development Plan editions) @ over 500MB per CD of info = massive headache. Some of the CDs are beyond their shelf life and not reading properly for the transfer. Oh goody!

:P

Found a CD thats hard to read. Damn Marion Council Development Plan in PDF is corrupt. Work colleague just walked past and made the joke: aren't Council's corrupt anyway? :P

does a dented sump cause any damage?

Depends on how bad the dent is, and if its affected/restricted the oil pickup.

... oh, and obviously, that its not leaking!

I had a big dent in my sump on the 32 when I had it, I just put in a bit extra oil till it was just above full on the dip stick - the dent made it look fuller then it was.

:P

Reminds me of a time I saw a biker at the BP. Motorcycles are to be topped up with oil in an upright position, not on its side stand. This one guy was convinced the level was to be maintained on its side stand and he had not overfilled it. It was a brand new bike and he said the dealer's mechanic didn't fill it up enough. Of course, his 2 years riding experience bettered my 20 years riding experience and an experienced bike mechanic, so obviously he was right :P

He killed the bike after 1200kms :)

    • 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 👌
