youll need the correct ratio. pretty much only from an ARX or hicas equipped RS model

unless you pull the LSD centre from that diff and hope it fits yours

also, automatic diffs even from 350z are open wheel

didnt see one Stagea while I was in Thailand.... I did however see so many modified utes it wasn't funny...

I'm pretty sure they should start associating the word ute with that country!

also thought I saw a stagea many times, only for it to be a lowered LOLvo with a big exaust and a body kit!

There wasnt a single Stagea to be spotted in Sri Lanka either! Millions of modified Tuk Tuks/Three-wheelers though. Hardly any utes, but a suprising number of Evos and WRX's (read: still not that many of them)

LMAO man if you can drive in lanka you can drive anywhere..

my uncle made me get on a motorbike through duplication road.(somewhere in colombo)

i swear i thought i was going to die 10 times.. especially when he goes through red lights

through duplication road.(somewhere in colombo)

F. That. Yeah I know duplication road, went down it a couple of times - a few half decent shopping places in that area.

Meanwhile, they did have something cool though - on some of the main roads (in fact, duplication road I think had it) the main traffic lights have a count down for when they sequence is going to change, so you know how long is left on the green/red. :worship:

My mate and I both saw it and had the same thought.. would be used for street racing here >_<

yeh near Majestic City shopping and stuff.. yeh most of them are count down on main roads.. it adds to the efficiency of traffic or something..

lanka is seriously a place you dont wanna get into a crash though.. if your at fault a whole bunch of people 'may' intentionally beat the shit out of you.. saw it once, and cops dont do anything.

but that was before the war finished.. duno about now..

yeah Thailand has the same count down timer, and all the bikes are off at about 3, before it even turns greeen!

that's probably because half the time the ones with the times (especially in Bangkok) are 3 minute red lights ughhhhhh!

it seems like an eternity with the timer there aswell :P

generally if there's no timer, they don't pay attention to the colour of the signal from what I could tell :P

thats ages.. better off walking lol.. probably safer too

the thing is its probably so hard to actually get to a speed to cause a bad accident in bangkok,

unless you're on a motorbike / scooter (which 90% of the population is) haha

lol at how they all congregate to the front like seagulls

I saw Stageas in Okinawa, Japan. However most of them were just dull and boring- NA models, stock rims etc etc. Only saw a couple of good ones, and neither time was fast enough to catch on Camera.

Photos to come- but don't get excited, they are pretty boring!

IMG_2605.jpg First M35 I saw, outside a panel shop I think.

IMG_2613.jpg Woke up one morning, and this one was outside my window!

IMG_2638.jpgPlace had 3 nice R32 GTR's for sale. I wish I had the time to wander into some of theperformance garages on the Island, I did see a R35 outside of one!

IMG_2664.jpg???

IMG_2665.jpgSeem to be lots of R32s on the island- one place I saw about 8 GTR's in a row for sale. Less R33/R34's.

IMG_2731.jpgDay out at the beach. Bring the Stag!

IMG_2733.jpgThis was from Toyko- just caught it out of the corner of my eye in an alley. Series 2, 250RX

IMG_2739.jpgBentley Flying Spur, I think?

    • 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. 
    • 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 👌
