Only had a quick chat to Jerry the other day. The car is actually for sale if anyone has the cash or something worth swapping for his next project. It has the full range of APEXi electronics AVC-R, PowerFC, etc but not sure on actual engine mods.

Jerry probably wouldnt want everybody knowing whats under the hood but let me tell you this much... LOTS of money and having experienced it myself LOTS of power! Not only that the car is completely custom from head to toe now, I love it!

Read up on jerry's car in the Street Car of the Year edition of Autosalon mag. He placed fourth overall and that was with the car fu*king out on him and running heaps rich. Runs an awesome track time on the day also (on standard boost)...

JR 101 - I beleive is stock motor wise excpt a few bolt ons (ie pod PFC, Zaust, etc..).

Kick ass sound and looks. Check the the Autosalon 2004 Final Battle mag for some tech info too.

Edit: your right Stevie it was the Street Car of the Year, I got confused. I'm still a bit doubting on internal engine work tho.

Advice - Definately get the latest Dyno sheet, drive it and speak with Ed for the low down. Ed fixed the fitting of the Turbo recently and has been Jerry's mech for ages. Jayce may have handy info too.

Anyone heard a price ?

BTW on monday i spotted a black GTS-4 going through manuka in the am looked pretty stock and saw a silver wingless r32 with what looked like a custom hood around 3.30 going through manuka

    • 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. 
    • 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 👌
