Enjoy your long lasting engine if that's how you like to go about it...

I've been waving heaps to peeps in QBN lately. There is a silver R33 GTR, a Silver R33 GTST which lives on Crawford Street and also a black R33 with Lightning on the side who's BIL I met lately.

Saw my 4Door getting downtuned today to 14psi after overboosting. Still made over 270RWKW at ESP. Who turns it down??? I do apparently. Don't hate me. I don't want it to go crunch.

Maybe... It's cheaper Rent. + commute + ... Nah. Forget it. :D

It's funny though... Every other car I've had, I would always see those cars on the road.

(and there weren't that many 90's Bluebirds around)

Now I still see all of those previous cars, just not my current Baby...

It's kinda cool actually.

Also for the 4Door clan, get this. There are 4, R33 4Doors in QBN. Mine, One on henderson/crest road (looks like a non runner), One on Cooma Street S1, and a non turbo KR4 S2 that I see occasionaly. Random huh.

Yep I see a couple of those 4 doors around all the time. Always surprises the hell out of me

    • 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.
