Just get another piece of plastic and superglue it in the same spot.

Most plastic models have plastic rods about the same diameter that are the waste part of the mold.

OR

if you are really keen, find the broken bit. I can bet that it was broken off whilst putting the console back in place and the broken piece will be some where around the place it is meant to locate.

Happy searching.

the front locating pin??

andy found out they mostly just fall out, but mine is broken and i wont be fixing it. it doesnt move all that much and personally it doesnt worry me all that much!

Yeah likewise, doesnt really bother me all that much, i do however need the knee storage for drivers side as when they ripped it apart they broke one of the tabs and it tore out a hole also.

the previous owner was a keen surfer. wax, fin tuning tools amoung other things i found.

There's drivers knee storage??

yeah those little pockets between your knee and the centre console. i keep a usb cable in mine for the charger in the lighter socket

:) duh of course. I was thinking maybe there was some sort of gloveboxy thing under the steering wheel or something. Never really think of the little pockets cause it looks like they were designed for a pack of ciggies.

ive noticed when i floor it off the line or accelerate harshly, things fall out of that place pretty easily. my mrs was putting her phone in the passenger side one till i gave the car a hit a few times and it landed under her feet each time :)

I was wondering what he had done with it, thanks :(

That guy is dodgy, read the questions to the seller at the bottom of the ad.

As soon as someone asked the key question about weather it was an insurance write off or statutory write off he goes all difficult and avoids the question.

    • 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.
