Well its taken me long enough but its almost ready for paint... just got to make sure everything lines up properly before i paint it. looking nice and fat.

Will go down and check out the rims tomorow... going to go with the BSA 264s with 235s all round. Mum gets back from NZ with the GTR indicators and bonnet latch so i can fit a carbon fibre or GTR bonnet.

Heres a couple of pics...

why... u got a fat pimpin cefiro! :rolleyes:

just gotta work out how im going to get the GTR skirts on without the widend rear guards...

also gotta fill in the boot holes and order the nismo rear lip from JMS in adelaide

neither can i :rolleyes: hopefully it wont take tooooo much longer.

going to need to either make up a bracket to hold the bottom steady or get the GTR guard liners... no idea how much they will cost me.

CHANGE OF PLANS ON THE WHEELS!!!

i just brought some enkeis for 1200!! :) going to powder coat em white. should look horn... altho from memory i think phat32 had them haha maybe i should get his plates too :)

hehe nah i like the look of the bonnet grille with that bar... it will do until i get bored and ship the CF bonnet down from UAS and fit that...

going to get some mesh for the bar so u cant see my horn and massive gap of nothing :)

the enkeis should be better... not sure how much better...

once the exterior is completed...

wanna get a half rollcage put in and i'll take out the rear eseatbelts and register it as a 2 seater...

i will start work on the engine

160/180rwkw should be fine in a 32 to keep me happy.

seeing as everything fits im going to drill the rest of the holes tomorow and send it off to get painted so it should be done by next week hopefully.

rims will be here in about 2 weeks...

will fill in the boot holes this week in the boot this week too.

    • 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?
