lol that sounds like a horrible weekend...have to be really careful with making sure ur rego is up to date because they will usually always get you for it, even if its just a day over. i assume because you wont have ctp on your car once your rego has expired??

hope ur mate doesn't get in too much trouble anyway.

The positive aspect is that in NSW, an unregistered car can't be defected. :yes:

hahaha well there you go unrego all the way... dat prob y they didnt defect me..

one of the police where pretty nice though i found out he goes to the creek to the skid pan in his 180.. he drove my car

around the corner and i had to warn him its no a sr20 so dont put your foot to far to the ground... it was a good laugh...

well until the highway patrol they called court noticed us hahah

Cleaned out a rental place in another city having been moving over the past few months, we also thought we could do it in 1 day so ended up sleeping on the floor all night with no furniture, pillows etc...

A few years ago I was putting some speakers in my shitty old car, so took mum's camry out to go see some friends in town (in newy). I got rbt'd round 2am when dropping a few of them home, when the officer spotted the rego:

"Are you aware the car is out of rego sir?"

"No officer, it's actually my mum's car... how long out of rego is it?"

Officer looks at her watch, "2 hours" domokun.gif

Hahahaha, after a long chat with her supervisor they decided to let me go.

I'm a bit confused, did you get tickets for being unregistered or did they give you a little piece of paper saying you must attend court on a certain date? If it was the latter why did they do that? Have you had this happen to you more than once before? (Or more specifically your mate who was driving)

edit: My weekend sucked, I worked!

yes there was no fine for it just given a letter of a court date for next month & why your ask they did this... my opinion it was more aimed at my mate

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