Ok sled or any moderators please watch this thread as it is only an option/suggestion not a debate :banana:

I was sitting here having a debate with my parents about this whole car accident and recent ones.. now to those who decided to turn the other thread into a debate about everything other than paying your respects this does not include you.

I suggest those SAU members on the sunday of the funeral we chuck on some black ribbons to the cars with a small cruise to where the funeral is held as a sign of respect and a speedy recovery to the 33 driver. Some may have not known either but who said we cannot show unity and respect at a time like this?

Decent comments welcome, but you want to argue this.. leave now.

Fristly, this is a duplicated thread. One would question the logic of appearing in force at a funeral, after all there are going to be a lot of upset people there that may not appreciate 'high performance imports' at the funeral. If you want to rock up, fair enough but I don't think that this is something we should get involved in, unless we want to start a precedent of doing cruises for every car related fatality for every dude out there (no offence but he wasn't even a member of SAU - so why would I want to pay 'respect' for someone who was doing something brain achingly stupid?)

ok cheers, delete the thread and then have the idea somewhere else. Like someone said in the other thread and ACCIDENT is something not caused on purpose.. doesnt mean you cant pay respects to someone for losing the life.

Sure, if you know them personally. Its a bit weird to rock up at a funeral uninvited when you don't even know the bloke.

I dont see why SAU as a club should be rocking up to some dudes funeral at random when he wasnt even a poster. I sure as hell don't want to associate myself with that sorta stuff.

Otherwise we may as well join hands and sing kumbaya while holding placards 'wont someone please think of the children' at every opportunity

ok that post was fine till you decided to add "Otherwise we may as well join hands and sing kumbaya while holding placards 'wont someone please think of the children' at every opportunity"

Someone delete the thread already?

Well it reeks of the bleeding heart brigade. Just cause someone dies doesn't mean anything. People die every day, you don't see us doing charity cruises for them.

guys, no more threads please ....one is all that's required.

The thread that I locked was open long enough for peeps to give their condolences but it got to the point (after many warnings) where it became a ramble about Rann, tracks and stupid drivers.

and yes, the last thing the grieving family would need right now is a bunch of unknown Skylines crashing their time of mourning.

sometimes we can be very sincere in what we do, but at the same time be sincerely wrong.

      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.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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 👌
