Give DiRTGarage a PM,

He gives the best jobs :(

Also give J'z R33 a PM as he has just taken delivery of his big one.

J'z R33 just took delivery of one of our stage 2 items...he was stunned at the quality of workmanship.

Our street stage 2 head is so good Jim Souvas at Croydon didnt want to touch it when i was going to a full race head as it worked so well...he requested i buy another bare head to race port instead.

Im so lucky to have a guy like Terry doing all the "white mans magic" on our heads...as its a dark art that i don't have a clue on.

Our turnaround on a head alone is a couple of weeks...not months.

This is going ages back when I saw it, but there was a mechanic workshop along parramatta road near Hebersham, and the sign read something like; "the best head jobs in sydney" or something close

A full house head with dual springs, ti retainers, os valves both sides, bronze guides, big cams, cam cap studs, race spec'd port job will cost u around 6k

JHH Engineering in qld i cant go past. 30+ years experience and their workmanship says it all...

Nah not yet, I've ditched the RWD RB26 project, its going in a GTR now.. just got to find a good clean example.

The pics just dont do it justice.. looks 1000 times better in person.

PM me your engine details and what you will be using it for (include turbo details and rpm limit)...what parts you already have...and what other parts you need...ill get Terry to price it up for you.

Avoid Harris engine services.. there are much much better port jobs around for a cheaper price.. and harris's turn around time is f**king pathetic.. not to mention my head i had done by them failed with in 100km's. mysteriously 1 valve out of 24 touched a piston and bent.. and no it wasnt an overrev.. ive put it down to dodgy work which doesnt suprise me at all as they followed none of my requests.

go with JHH they are by far the best bang for buck and as shanef has posted.. there port jobs are extremely sexy and work very well.

    • 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.
