errrmm, its called having a job. :D

pretty silly comment you made right there imho

Massive grats!!! 23 weeks over here and counting up!!!

I don't think your every ready to have kids finacially, more you think about it the less you'll have one cuase they're expensive even before they come out!! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKK!!!

congrats dude........tell your twin brother to take some happy pills

hes not my twin..... my name on here is the plate on my four door 31.... and i dont condone ppl giving others a hard time either way..but i do agree he needs happy pills or at least take up smoking.. hahahaha

and i have to agree with boof.... at 27 years old i can still say i am not financial enough for kids. but we have the support if we need it..

still is a mind blowing thing but. it changes every thing you do :D

BUT, the true meaning to life is to have children - to pass you genes on down the line - to keep your genes in the homo sapian gene pool mix.

gotta be in it to win it

meaning to life. flick hopefully one day you'll experience it.

craig, if you are rich good luck to you, but for most people the comment "you'll never be financially ready" rings true. not everone can have a 5bed deluxe home, money for expensive tuition for 5 kids for 12yrs, etc etc

while I want the best for my kids, not ONE DOLLAR ever comes into it. kids dont want money, just mommey and daddy, and the love & care that mommy and daddy give, no more no less.

hence the meaning to life.

simple

totally agree.. money does not by love or happyness it just makes things easier :laugh:

Pretty sure theres more to life - or the 'meaning of life' than having kids? I Think theres more to life than that. Never have wanted kids, never will, and i dont feel think im missin out on anything.

Kinda gone off topic a little in here but yeh, think theres more to life than that..

Edited by *flick*

I should say then, the meaning to MY life is my children

thought differently before kids, but once you have your own flesh and blood in your hands, everything changes, and finance just doesnt come into it, ever

nothing else matters........... hence the meaning to life

(fact is you cant argue meaning to life is to reproduce - thats a fact of nature, for every species whether fauna or flaura)

Craig, not being narky, just trying to make a point that money should NEVER come into it, whether you have kids or not.

all you need is love

:(

i didnt mean it in the way of spoiling my child,

i ment it in the way of being able to support it,

i dont want to not be able to buy the essentials, thats all i was scared of.

any way, after our meeting with the bank today, confirming our previous meetings in regards to home loan

we will also be trying to start a family in feb.

i cant wait

I got married late and waited another 5 yrs to get financial cause my earlier thinking was that I didn't like the idea of spending all my money on having kids.

Well I've done a full circle on that now and wouldn't swap them for the world........they are literally my life now and everything I own will be theirs one day anyway.

You always find a way to meet the essentials.......sometimes requires some sacrifices, but never regrets

    • 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.
