Is this thread still alive?

I live in warragul.

I've seen a few beasts getting around.

few 32 and 33 GTST's, a gunmetal grey 32 GTR and i think there is a 4 door local as well.

Sorry bit late with the post but maybe it will get goin again.

When I was heading back through sale on sunday night I pulled in to get pizza and there was a red monaro with stickers on it there. Done up a bit and loud as all hell. Scared the shit out of my missus when he did a massive burnout when leaving after seeing my car. Guessing he would be well known in the area for making noise, pizza shop worker said he was local.

Also saw a red NSX in Bairnsdale too, looked hot.

Saw a few lines while in Gippsland. A maroon 33 in paynesville on sunday cruising past the main shops, had a learner driving it and slowed down to check me out too. And a few others I cant remember.

That Monaro is very tough.

Thought it may be well known.

Any idea what work has been done or how much power it has? It sounds closer to a V8 supercar than a regular monaro.

Big stroker, wild cam & heads. Still N/A, but i'm not totally sure of power. A lot methinks, it sounds mental. Its supposed to go TT this year according to a bloke I know who's mates with the owner.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • 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.
