whats the price.

i went to a fibreglasser 2 yrs ago with my car, but a full kit of unknown quality unpainted would still have been a grand or so.

cheaper the more ppl went in, but moulds would have had to be paid for up front and you need to factor that into the cost.

it fell dead due to non commitments, really

Ok well my reasoning for getting a standard kit is that it's not made of fibreglass. I don't like the idea of the thing blowing to bits if I go through a big dip or something.

That said, most of the quotes so far have been around $1400. For a second hand S1 Dayz kit - the incentive is as well if you can find one in the standard colour, you don't need to paint it.

There is always something up there, but to be honest it's more like advertising for the wreckers.

Ideally you want someone in Japan just going to a wreckers and asking for the parts.. I have someone who can help me out there, it's just getting the bloody things to Aus!

My Dayz is pearl white :blink:

I notice though, that the bottom part of the front guard isn't pearl but a different shade of white... interesting but still looks good.

And if I may hijack the thread, anyone know the paint code for the pearl white? Grey trims are the erk

    • 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?
