Hey Victor, unfortunately I won't be able to make it to this cruise. Compliance on my car is finished but there is no boat that goes to Fremantle till early March... Sorry about that, I thought I would get it in time :(.

Hey Mikhail, sorry to hear that. You are welcome to come to the meet point and meet the owners and see the cars though.

If not, we look forward to seeing you at our next event.

Hopefully should be able to come providing i get my yellow sticker off that i got last night :(

will let ya know vic for sure closer to date

Hey Pete, hope you can get the sticker off without much drama. (I've stock 17" V35 coupe wheels that I can offer you to pass the pit, but they won't clear your aftermarket brakes. :( ).

Anyhow, you are welcome to join us, Pete. Just let me know anytime before the cruise day and we look forward to seeing you again.

Good luck with the pit.

common guys lets c sum more Vs. Gonna b a gr8 cruise.

if im not leaving to denmark this weekend i might just rock up with my ep82 just for the meetpoint or 1st run. oh how i miss mine.

Thanks for the heads-up, guys. If this is a smaller turn-out, it will still be great to catch up with new and old owners. Hopefully, next time it will be a bigger turnout.

Problem is we only know a few VQ-series owners on SAU, and there are still more owners that are not on SAU.

Shame im not in WA, id be in for sure.

Good luck, sounds like fun im looking forward to seeing the pics.

Thanks for the comment, mate. :)

Photos will be uploaded after the cruise. For now, you can look at photos from previous cruises in WA on SAU. And if you have Facebook accout, you can look at photos on there too.

Aww I really wish my car was here already so I could go to this :(.

Hi Mikhail, how's the car coming?

It would have have great if you got the car earlier and join us, but there will be another cruise later down the year. We might have a meet-and-greet sometimes next month if there's enough interest. :)

Meet-and-greet sounds good. My car is about 2 weeks away :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.
