Meet at TSO Hq at 2pm on Sunday. Weather depending the plan is to go for a drive then back to Hq for a swim then back to the new place for a bbq and some drinks

Freshly purchased and live in Toowoomba. Still be off the road for a bit.

Hey mate glad to see more cars in toowoomba :)

If you see a red and black r33 getting around toowoomba that'll be me :)

Any suggestions for somewhere to get spare parts?

Jesse Streeter is your best bet for parts that have to come from Japan. Look him up in Google and you'll find him ;)

You can peruse the Japanese Auctions on the Import Monster website (they're pretty good too).

For bits and bobs, SAU is the best for it.

Does it have to be Sunday? Like Nick, Saturday is preferred because I have to work Monday....

BUT Sunday's cool too. Just won't be able to stay long that's all :(

If there are no changes, I'll see you guys at TSO :yes:

Cannot change it to Saturday because Saturday is no good for me or Amy

It's been a few days and I can't believe no one has posted in here yet.

BUT..................

I wanna say thanks to Chris and Amy for once again hosting the 2013 TSO Xmas get together.

Food was great and the chats - awesome.

Just wished I could've stayed longer. We'll have to make it a Saturday next time LOL

Looking forward to 2014. More driver, more activities and more time spent catching up ;)

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
