I just came... again. Seen it in flesh a few times but just like porn, can watch it over and over again!

Kudos to you fellas for building the finest track attack car on this land!!

I want a full flying hot lap,,,none of this ending coming onto the straight malarky. We all know you two have it on your puters and an sd thingy.

Neil.

there were no real "hot" laps that day. it was tyre testing and sorting out a few little thing. mark was making his undies brown from about the second lap onwards due to those little bugs getting ironed out :blink:

wooster...i'll spew if you get to drive it before me!! lol

well i just broke a record i reckon....brisbane to darwin in just over a day and a half pulling a caravan! haha

average speed was above 130 and got booked at 137 at roma ( damn it).

highest speed was bout 150 on the highway the other side of mt isa!

but back to the r34 , yeah the tracktimes were good but there should be atleast another full second or so in it yet. the steering was locking up on some corners,

not sure whether this is due to rack being severely bumped out or fluid surge but need to look at it.

also need a better rear diff and a rear swaybar. and for eastern creek and bathurst in two months a taller diff ratio as it was hitting the limiter at the start /finish line on the front straight.

and of course, up the power which has not been touched since the initial tune.( but of course this wont be touched until the thing is handling as good as we can get it)

anyway hope to see you guys again soon

bloody hot up here!!

cheers russ

    • 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.
