Yep; the grey 35R is definately Bob's. And Jerry tells me he doesn't have one, which is good enough for me. Whilst the car isn't complianced, it seems a mere matter of time, tests and red tape before Bob gets to drive it on the roads. The question I need to ask him is what he's done with his daily driver 34. Would be a nice garage: 33,34 & 35 model GT-R's!

Spotted today: a black 32 GTS-T, nice wheels, well fitted FMIC, driving into Fyshwick as I was passing through. Saw the driver looking, so I waved, but it mighta looked a bit weird...getting a wave from a gold Forester! I long to be more recognisable behind the wheel of a certain white 32.

Not to mention the Z32 300ZX TT and Soarer and I do believe he has a GU Patrol as a tow car... He was getting around in a Ferrari 355? not long ago too. It wasnt his though.

Hey Jayce, whats happening with the old girl?? Still no go with the build yet?

Yes, yes; don't remind me!! LOL!! Still, forward progress(with the build) will be resuming shortly...

Spotted at 6.20 pm, on the Monaro Hwy southbound, a white Stage with Qld rego (I'm pretty sure). Seemed neat, the little I got to see of it!

Also saw a yellow 200SX at about 6.40 pm leaving little Jerra' shops, rego' was something similar to 'YCZ' something-or-other, P plater. also a complete tosser, pretending to be a drift king on a narrow street. It would have distressed me to see one of Nissan's nicest sports cars get pranged. However, I wouldn't have minded seeing his fulsik chromies take a beating on a gutter to wake him up. F**king goose. Whilst he's not likely on here, if anyone floats between here and N.S. dot com, maybe a quiet word in this loser's ear if you know him, please?

End rant.

spotted a very nice 33 on the Barton HWY (Canberra side), bronze/gold colour.

gunmetal 33 in Woden (parked)

also spotted what i think was a Jaguar XK (going by brief view rear lights and side on as it drove through traffic lights, looked like it had the chrysler badge on the back though :X) in fyshwick around 4pm. It was ridiculously hot.

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
