In all seriousness you guys that go out the the track, how often do you guys and gals drive the car on the street? dont use ever get pulled over in rbt and defect stations?.. problem is, quite i few times myself or mates have been pulled over and car gone over for absolute nothing... so your still under the eye when your being sensible...

Nup, mines engineered and only comes out 2 times a month, if it comes out more I trailer it to the track.

but then again it is a hardresser car

mind you, my old r33 - with 5 years ownership, pulled over twice. both RBT's.

no defects no speeding fines no nothing

back on topic...car for under $10k, a falcodore is best value, otherwise a small runabout if you want lower running expenses.

back off topic...why do you need a $10k car if you don't have a licence anyway?

I've been driving for 15 years and have yet to get a speeding ticket (will probably get one now :rant: ) Do I think the speeding rules are stupid? Well to a point. We all know that certain roads and traffic conditions can accommodate some types of speeds, I could probably do 150km/h down my surbuban 50km/h street without any problems but in that scenario it is the inattentive pedestrian that could be at risk.

The freeways I could do 150km/h easy and I think there's a good argument for that to happen but the fact is until the government stops chasing the easy money by focusing on speeding, which is much easier to catch/detect than say tailgaiting or dangerous driving, then you're just going to have to be careful and watch your speed when you drive.

Failing to do so will lead to...well you already know.

Petition your government MP for more realistic speed limits although from the position you're in you probably don't have much say given your record.

Toyota Soarer Twin Turbo 6, Between 3-5k on road.

10k for a manual with mods.

Best import you can get for under 10k. Bit on the luxo/heavy side compared to skylines, but they are great ride and tune up well.

I got my R33 for $3500 from a dude on this forum.

needs a bit of love but I think you've got some spare time on your hands now.

some dude on NisSil is selling his 180 for $8k, Tiny baby 2 liter engine can't speed whistling.gif

You can fly down to Tassie and drive it ba..... oh wait.

don't worry OP, I lost my licence a few times when I was a wee boy, I just didn't post up on forums bragging about it. Your bogan mates might think you're a super hero and they're really impressed when you mum drops you off at work and parties but all the trolls on forums will always say the politically correct thing and make you feel silly, but you asked for it.

Edit: f**king lol at nismo skyladore.

    • 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 👌
