well its been way to long but A.I.R is opening the doors for drag racing THIS SATURDAY 26TH, sadly only 1/8 mile for the first few events but its a whole lot better than nothing. gates open at 8am, racing from 9 finishes at 11. Some big names are making the trek over including GAS Motorsport and the Brays. seriously not an event to be missed

Yep I wil be out there for a look. When it is 1/4 mile early next year I will go run the V35 just to see how slow she really is :)

Maybe you missed Matty's post about this http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/375656-drags-back-at-air/

ill b there from 7am crewwing with the 2 500+kw vl turbos, 1 is white n manual (low boost for this meet on et street radials) the other 1 is yellow, number plate BOOSTO running big power thru a glide... has gone 9.90 b4 with much less power...

hope this rain clears, heard there is going to b around 25-30 thousand out there so get in early....

7am.. You're keen! Lol

Was talking to chafe lastnight and he was saying he went for a quick test drive and the car is hooking up mint on the et streets, cant wait!

yeah keen as, keen as to beat the traffic mostly lol

yeah i spoke to him on wed nite, hes loving the et streets, wait til he gets em on the track, there pretty much as good as slicks these days

i didnt know a top fueler was going out, even tho i heard a rumour yest that darren morgan was thinkn of headn over so that makes sense...

im keen to see joe signorellis 2j pro fx car again, been a while since ive been to jambo...

didnt the ba falcon have near 600 rwkw and the gtr i know had 406kwaw... and from wat i saw on the time board there was a couple tenths in it... hardly a smashing

also, it was the first qualifying run for all cars...

were so many surprised packet cars, great day, pity i had to leaver at 530, was running very smoothly

doorslammers going 4.0 - 4.2 at 173 to 176 mph to the 1/8th... crazy

Was an awesome day with some amazing cars ..... 176mph at half track is amazing - makes your bones hum with excitement as they fly past.

Pity I got burnt as hell - at least I am not as burnt as Terbeeke - he is going to be sore tomorrow! Great to catch up with MattR, Whatsisname, MattyT & Jas too!

its std turbo(ported flapper still internal) on that thing pushing 400 at best and shes a fat bitch with 1900+kg inc driver fuel ......400awkw should of destroyed a ba a few tenths is big news in any drag racing circle :domokun:

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • 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 👌
