Can confirm as of 12 months ago it use to sit in the Uni Wilson carpark on Marcus Clarke street. Use to see it every day haha

Yea, and may be coming back soon...

I've been sent out to Fairbairn for the moment, so have been driving the other half's car for a bit... but have been giving the skyline some legs lately.

spotted all the skylines recently. ALL OF THEM. 

33 this morning with number plates 33 lol

Robs old 4 door a few times at my work....

a Grey 33 on horsepark drive pretty much every night...

a white 33 on horsepark drive...

Also spotted mine back on the road sneakily :ninja:

Spotto...a black R35...in Bungendore(!)
I have seen this car a few times in the area; assuming it's a local.
For the moment, I'm assuming it's the most powerful GTR in town, although that will change...
There's also a scruffy R33 in midnight purple hanging around. Looks relatively stock, just...unloved.

i actually spotted a few last week, saw a 33 in fyshwick at the traffic lights near CMC. had white? front bar i think. Back end was black.

The GTR will be out an about over the next few months, floating between the gungahlin area and the airport.

    • 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.
