I agree that celebrity deaths are over-celebrated and randoms who don't know them personally take it to heart way too much...but when death is shoved in our face like that by the media, it will tweak the human emotions. It's easy to think that people only care about celebrities and not randoms dying of the same illnesses, but it's not the case...it's just that, how are you supposed to know of the randoms dying...go to hospitals and mourn with their families? In contrast we watch TV and read the newspaper everyday, so anything in there is going to get more thought from us.

For me, Jim being the president and savior of my football club, also a personal inspiration to me...seriously 244 consecutive games, each and every week...his death does matter more to me than the average celebrity. In any case this is one person whose life should be celebrated by everyone, not because he should be missed more than your average cancer victim, but he was a figure in the public spotlight who did some really good things. And in such a f**ked up world, it is important for people in the public spotlight to be seen doing things like he did - it restores a bit of faith in humanity for everyone who sees it, it encourages people to be better when they see this kind of legacy and mourning left behind by a good spirit.

No different to how x celebrity is considered hotter just coz he/she is a celebrity

Yer I agree with this, there are hotter girls at Crown than any celebrity in Hollywood...it just comes back to who we are all exposed to...you can't talk to someone about how hot a girl at Crown was but you can google pictures of a celebrity and show them, chances are they'll already know who you're talking about though.

I see you are enjoying the GTR!

    • 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?
