Black R32 with red plated and first three letters of: RED this afternoon about 1pm heading from woden to Civic I don't know the name of the road. I pulled alongside you but your tint was so damn dark I couldn't see a thing inside.

Anyone know who this guy is?

If you mean R33 not R32 then it was probably me - were you in the black 350Z? I was wondering at the time whether it was someone off the boards. Next time I won't be so rude (was on the phone this time)...give me a wave or something. Yeah, the tint is dark innit...

burgundy R32 GTST with DRIFTO plates crossing commonwealth ave bridge about 8:15am

Got me!

Don't you just love that big long left coming onto the bridge. Gotta watch those buses though!!!

Taking the GF to work each morning is not a chore.

Spotted a few times in QBN a smick 32 with black vented bonnet, big wing, big gold volks, very nice.

Also spotted a bargain at the QBN Scotts Big Boys Toys, White 33 GTS that use to be owned by a local guy. Well respected car with nice mods about 18k.

crap, just noticed the typo... meant R33

Yeah the 350Z was me :D

If I had of waved would you have even seen it? I have a mild tint but yours would have to be one of the darkest I have ever seen.

Yeah, it's not too bad to see out of, of course, nighttime can be a little interesting trying to use the side mirrors. Was on the car when I got it, considering getting it removed and replaced with something not quite so dark.

    • 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 👌
