Spotted a white r33 s2 that used to have different wheels but now has gold bbs lm's on ashley drive around 4 30...... Only a trained eye would be able to tell the difference between our cars that and he has l.e.d strips on his front bumper.

Hey Rob,

Check out the Varrstoen ES111's mate. The are BBS LM replicas. I got mine locally from Varrstoen for $350 a wheel, not including rubber.

Yep thought it might have been someone on here, I caught the orange candy van filling up my rear view mirror and I did catch the wave in the rain as you went past :action-smiley-069: . Sorry about the 'honking' thing, I'd just picked it up from BDL after getting some audio tweeks done so the music was a little loud, you could have let off a bomb and I probably wouldn't have heard it!

New King springs go on the front on Thurdsay ... keep an eye out on Hindmarsh :action-smiley-069:

that was me......

noticed the gold rims on yours also.. but mine i've had the gold rims on it from when i bought it... yours is looking very neat.. :-)

mine will hopefully be easily picked aside from the DRL's.. gotta fix the bumper.. so some custom painting is going to take place.

    • 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?
