Saw a nice empty wide backstreet (other than one guy on a bike) so decided to give the car a bit of stick. Flew past the guy on the bike and then realised it was my step dad... He'll be arriving home at any second now. Uh oh...

For the record I wasn't going fast, I just accelerated like crazy so I know he'll be like "rah rah you must've been going at least 200k"

just tell him he's lucky you didn't go for the 10 points and run him over

also, tax assignment and sleep tonight. sigh

Bicardi 151 here i come :D

Wish I could join you there. Was meant to go to my mate's DJ gig tonight, got there and couldn't get in. Was too many people.

Now I'm stuck at home with shit all alcohol. 1/8 a bottle of scotch and a cruiser my girlfriend left in the fridge. EPIC FAIL :D

However... The night is still young and I have $10k to blow. Suggestions? :cool:

i think i said this last time but go and double it at crown lol.

Are you a rock star now?

:(

Make big money and buy whatever you want.

:(

I wouldn't say a "star" yet :P But in all modesty, I have potential.

This time I've teamed up with a guy from Australian Idol 2006.

I've got a bunch of great songs and with his voice and $5k of recording/mastering I think we can create something farking awesome :D

After that will come photoshoots, a website, and all that marketing bullshit.

Will be a long and expensive process but IF it's successful then yeah, I won't be bothering with $10k cars anymore :P

    • 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 👌
