Hey guys just thought id warn you of what happened earlier tonight, was coming home from mates work shop round the 8.20 mark turning off South rd onto Black rd (near the vic) and was doing the speed limit not driving like a dick or cutting anyone off and from behind had a XB/XC white ford ute come flying up my ass and began tailgating m. Nowwhen i say tailgating i mean i couldnt see his lights close! Checked my speed and was doin the right speed. Guy kept doint it and followed me along black rd once i turned down a back street n saw him keep goin i was like fark this booged it (yes i know for everyone goin to gimme flack for this naughty naughty) and he kept following i did some fairly dodgy manovers trying to get rid of this wanker headed back to blacks then over took cars left right n centre to loose him he did some deadly driving to keep up only got a slight look at him in my rear view when he was honking and flashing me. Beanie, Goatie. etc Didnt get plates and didnt get a better look. didnt pull over coz he couldve had a gun on him who knows. Reckon he was def on drugs. He gave up after a bit. Just thought id put the word out to warn others in this area the guy either has something against skylines, imports or all of the above. Just a warning to all. I didnt prevoke this either incase anyone is thinking that. Not gonna do nething to attract attention to my car so attracts dickheads n thieves. Just keep an eye out lads n ladettes!!!!

Prob go report it in morning to the local police but without plates not much good!

I had a similar thing heading in the opposite direction a couple years ago.

Pulling out of blacks/flaggy hill round about on to blacks road heading towards south road a bloke with his goatie and a beanie in a old HZ V8 manual Holden pulled right up my arse. I could not see his wipers. I gave it a little hit up to the speed limit only to have him fly up my arse again. I let him sit up my arse.

Turned left on to South road off blacks road gave it a little squirt. Pulled up at the next set of lights to have him pull up next to me starring over reving it.

Gave it a little hit to the speed limit. He kept holding it down flew past nailing it through the S-bends past looking extremely dodgy. I came around the bend to find a 4wd with a trailer pulled out in front of him. I measured he slid a good 100m and 'slightly' tapped a tree on the medium strip with a branch over his bonnet/windscreen. No real visible damage to the car but as I drove past to see what the commotion was he was absolutely freaking out so give him the big middle finger up. Sucks to be him. :)

Sounds quite similiar.. Goatie + beanie. Will have to keep an eye out. There's bugger all XB/XC white ford utes around.

Its not only just an issue with imports.. I think its an issue with performance cars.

Back in 99 I had a VS 5ltr 5speed lowered with mags sherbrook green looked sounded damn nice.

Driving along commercial road at Pt. Noarlunga I had some bogan and his mate pull up next to me in a red VN v6 for no reason and try swinging a mini base ball bat at the car. I didn't stick around obviously.

Was quite funny how I got rid of him. Accelerated up to 80km/h I let him over take to get up side by side. I slammed the brakes and ducked off right down the side street to see him overshoot and lock it up and throw a u-turn. Looped around back on to commercial and continued on my merry way as he went looking down the side streets for me.

ive had something simmilar happen to me.

driving home from work, peak hour traffic, heading down montigue road from grand junction rd. dont know if any1 drives this way during peak hour but its fecked, bumber to bumber going about 60kms.

this guy is on my arse, so close i can see his boogers hanging out his nose. obviously in a hurry to get home... HELLO! its the end of the day! well all are!

im like "stuff this" so i turn into mawson lakes, he follows, he was doing the "pull over and ill smash you" hand signal but i didnt, im a lover not a hater :)

after about 5minutes off this he pulls around me and tries to take me out! as soon as he pulled out i slowed down hardcore so it was a close encounter.

no beanie and no goatie tho... just pure bogan.

It didnt have blue cobra stripes on it did it? About 18 months ago a mate and I were in his mums corolla and a similar ute (except with cobra stripes) was doing the same we ended up pulling into a car park and losing him through there. That happened at MorphettVale near the coles.

grab a monkey wrench out form under your seat, slam on the brakes, jump out and beat the shit outta him, if he runs good, if he fights, you have a monkey wrench.

win win situation

but if he jumps out with a club lock then it's not so much a win/win situation!

Maybe check out this web-site you might find him on here. http://www.bogan.com.au/

Yeah I was driving down North East Rd about 3 years ago this guy got out of the car in front of me with a steering wheel lock and went to the car in front of him and smashed the guy in the face. I could see what was happening so I jumped out of my car and ran up behind him hit him in the face/back of the head several times, got him in a head lock and wrestled him to the ground. Unfortunatley the lad in the car infront of him had a broked Jaw, after several other people got out to help me hold this BOGAN down, the Police arrived about 2 mins later. It happened about 300m for the Holden Hill Police Station, nice thinking BOGAN.

Also they were trying to charge me with assault, how the hell does that work. They told me that I had used an etreme amount of force to force to restrian him, said he got of lucky, what did you want to do talk to him like Dr Phil!!!

Problem was the guy had several other assualt charges already he got off with a suspened sentence and the other young lad got some victims of crime compo, but he was in pain for several weeks.

MMM does the system work??

sorry to hear that you had to go through that bud. Down here in vic, there have been a few cases like that - seems like its becoming more and more like the U.S. Do we really need to arm ourselves with guns, knives, wrenches and all that crap?

Anyway - good thing that you werent hurt or anything. But yeah, next time, just drive to the local police station and park in front. Wait for the guy to drive off - but get a good look at the plates - and put in a complaint. I guess if many people put in a complaint, then they cops would have to do something about it.

some dude last year went spastic at a mate and i last year because he went to change lanes while we were next to me....

followed to seaford skatepark and blocked the car in by parking behind it. i didnt really care as it was just 2 bogan looking douches in a aero kitted vn POS.

he must of called a few mates over as 2 car loads of guys rocked up one came out with a baseball bat and faked to smash the window on my car to try and get a reaction to find the person who owned the car.

after about 45minutes to an hour i got fed up and it turned into about 9 against 2 (me and my mate being the 2)

went striaght up to the guy in the vn face to face and told him to get out of his car and give him something to complain about. he acted all tuff untill about 3 cars rocked up all with old school skateboarders init. like im talking about dole bludging permently drunk old schoolers.

ask my mate what was going on and he went nuts and said to the vn dude that noone messes with his skate crew (we didnt even know these guys)

they blocked his car in and went over to the vn guys mates cars and started smashing it with their skateboards. then went to the vn and said something to him which made him piss off real quick.

after the the old schoolers started doing reverse ringes in his colt and took off after them.

was one really messed up night and i didnt really know what to think of it :s

    • 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. 
    • 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 👌
