THe dog pic is nice. and this last one is great. good start kory story allegory.

Thanks Mat! Appreciate it. Although unsure what you mean about the "story allegory". So i'm guessing it means Story = Ok or along those lines in regards to my blog post. :D

THanks for the WP heads up Sidd! It's useful! I'm still half clueless on it and I'm sure it will evolve as I learn more.

check it out if you want and let me know what you reckon. Still testing options for the galleries and stuff. Comments/thoughts from all appreciated :down:

Hey Kory :P

Thanks for the comments mate. It's nice to see you around this forum too :banana:

No problems :) Ooo Khaled from Rexnet? Hehe, now i remember. Good to see you joined up :)

Matt - If you have any problems with wordpress let me know. Its quite simple to use once you get the hang of it. Website is looking good mate :)

Also, i lol'd on the Kory hotline part. Now i know what your talking about :)

Nice work Matt! Looks great. Is the first pic over-saturated or is my monitor at work really bad?

Only thing i would change is add another flash/strobe to try get rid of the shadow under the front bar. Besides that, it looks sweet! Oh and the reflection in the windscreen on the first pic.

Keep it up!

I've been trying to get rid of those wheels for about 3 years but they just stay there. I've called her on the tackiness, I've explained the physics of unsprung weight, I even found her the perfect set of wheels for it (CE28N's) with no success. She's planning on selling it soon anyway so I don't think the wheels are going before that happens.

Here's a second attempt. It's a lot cleaner. I cleaned up the whole picture. car, background, shadows, windows.

I think it looks a bit unnatural without casting a shadow.

What do you guys think? Looks nice and clean and almost professional, looks boring? Looks like a morning after dinner at an indian restuaant? :D

    • 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.
