damn I wish I could bring the March for the Micra v Starlet battur!

BTW....my guess is the girlie mx5 is no slouch...let's see on the day eh? Will be good to see it out there

Was hoping tojust be a spectator on this one but bring the skyline for its first outing in 2 years, but with the car only going in for a tune that week i am doubtful i'll be ready for it..... Fingers crossed its ready and reliable ;)

well if you turned a spanner properly and didnt fark it up you will be fine :P

Smartass :P

My part is all done, its waiting on the tune at JEM.... Going down there VERY soon man!

Hey quick question, I need to get my AASA license on the day.

Is there somebody/somewhere I need to look for or will one of the execs point us in the right direction ?

come see me on the day.. i'll be doing sign on and licences

would be in but the missus wants to spend sunday checking out Canberra, some kind of music/jazz festival on..

might have to use the ole sleeping tablet in her cereal trick to get her to wakey! :whistling:

    • 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 👌
