Probably installing this weekend...been weighing up whether to attempt it myself or pay someone else to. I like DIY and this looks pretty straight forward, but shit ALWAYS goings wrong at some point and takes 10 times longer than it should. I'm guessing the broken manifold studs are going to be the catalyst this time around.

^^ LOL!

Andrew knows from experience.

Those injectors were the last straw for me ever working on the car again. Omg in and out like 5 times ... and in the end just bought those new 800cc sards which are going in, in the next couple of weeks.

lol I ran into Shan at Nandos camberwell - I wasnt on wasteland was on 9gag FYI :P

Yea dezz my jacket is black alpinestar with white stripes like over the shoulder bit, black helmet with dragon tattoo looking design on it with green eyes, got a black visor for it and my black bike with CF exhaust :D

Black ftw :D

I just have 3rd party on the bike because i'm riding it illegally anyway lol (bike cost me 7k) 3rd party was around 150 with aami.

Oh and my new car is black :D

I know yeah, you just raging everytime LOL!

But it's all good now!

Only reason I like doing it myself is that I always get it done properly and carefully. Looks pretty straight forward going by this guide, what do we think:

Post up some photos of your gear

Helmet was around 500, jacket around 500, pants around 250, gloves around 100, boots around 250-300

cant remember exactly but pretty close to those prices, got a little bit off due to buying all from peter stevens at once

haha f**k thats expenisve, my mate came out with us one night, just pants and a t shirt, doing wheelies all night long on his R1, too ballsy

you at least need helmet jacket and gloves imo which will set you back over 1k for some decent gear.

I asked the guy how much do i need to spend on a helmet he replied "how much is your head worth?"

    • 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 👌
