Get halfway through the 5th course (1 Martini, 5 Fancy Wines, and 4 VB's deep), realise you're drunk and Australian, so proceed to glass some cvnt in the neck, since surely your forefathers fought for your rights to do so...

Edit: Also, petrol...

Not sure if Westside joke or reference to Riverside Racing (also Westside)

Feel for the team though... Second round of the year and second sports sedan car fire

Also, beer between each course? That's either a long-ass meal or drinking very quickly. Either is not desirable when out and about eating good food

Yeah, I usually just get a bottle of plonk...

Much classier.

Beer is like water... it is essential to life and should be consumed in the amount of 8 glasses a day

When we did the chef's table at Vue Du Monde for the proposal

Started with a belvedere martini as per protocol (and a cocktail for mez)

Had a beer or 2

22 courses - all wine matched (inc desert)

Champagne course (63 degree duck egg with veal sweatbreads and WA black truffle) match was upped to a '96 Dom Perignon

when I popped the Q they gave us a bottle of Ruinart Blanc De Blanc on the house...

1967 comte de lamaestre (armagnac) x 2 for digestive

Then we went to the Melbourne Supper Club... for drinks... lol

That was back when I was in the game...anything I wanted was a phone call away.
Now I have to wait around like everyone else. Can't even get decent food - right after I got here, I ordered some spaghetti with marinara sauce, and I got egg noodles and ketchup. I'm an average nobody... get to live the rest of my life like a schnook.

I read the above and honestly thought the whole ultra fancy proposal was more schnookish than being a regular joe.

But hey, that's just me.

I can't stand people who are impressed by such things. Especially women. Man, that discussion about 15K rings had my actually chuckling at work. I didn't think people were actually interested in that kind of thing, like, not really

we were already going to the dinner anyway...

How many standards would that have been? Surely you didn't put away 22 glasses of wine plus the rest lol

No idea.... they aren't full sized glasses... but most were also refilled so I would assume an average of 3/4 standard for most of the wines except the dom which was 2 full standards each as once you have opened a bottle like that it has to go

^ i still do that.... till the missurs became fructose intolerant. but when she aint home...

22 courses? goddamn. i did 12-15 once and it was intense. i felt disrespectful for not being able to eat anymore, physically.

and i only had like 3 drinks. otherwise would have exploded.

I also dont like sitting down grazing like a cow for 5 hours.

    • 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 👌
