Genelle, whereabouts? Trying to think of which school zones it'd be possible to do that in :/

And oi, I'm from south of Wollongong and I'm not an idiot like that.

Now there's one less suspect!!!!

I wonder if police would reveal the number plate if asked.

yeah, sister just rang me: 24-25 year old from kanahooka, apparently port kembla? but shellharbour road... hmm. can only think of a handful of schools on shellharbour road. there's the one at port kembla behind westfield, and there's possibly warilla high (not sure if the 40 zone extends to shellharbour road though), and then the odd little one down near shellharbour itself.

:/

either way. cause he's from kanahooka you know he'll just get in another car and drive that, too

He was done in the area Jarrad said.

It's normally an 80 Zone, and seriously, there's NO houses around, and you will NEVER see a kid on that road during school time. Just plenty of moron drivers.

Most people do 60 - 70KM/H through that school zone of a morning. I used to use that road every day during school times, I used to laugh at the amount of people who sped through it, as once a week there would be an unmarked HWP parked near one of the park entries booking people. Although, half the time he didn't care about those doing 60/70... More the idiots who do warp speed.

zzz not condoning his actions + doing 130 in a resi zone is stupid but a lot of school zones need to be removed. Especially the ones that are on main roads and have had a pedestrian bridge built or there are fences 6ft tall in the medium strip to stop people from crossing the roads. Also look at removing some on roads near high schools. No offense but i was taught ever since i could walk how to act around a road and how to look right then left then right again. If high schoolers don't know how to act around a road and how to cross a road safely then they should just drop out of school now and focus on their career in the fast food industry.

I don't think this is an argument about if school zones are good or not.

For those who don't know, it's a road that is 3 lanes each way, with no driveways in this section (There are further up the road though)

Still, 130 is freaking stupid, it's still 50 over the normal limit.

This school is for primary age students, and there aren't fences or bridges there. While I agree that some school zones are a bit too long, I wouldn't say to remove them completely. 40's an awesome cruising speed for the year 12 chicks ;)

SNAP!!!

:banana:

      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.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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 👌
