Hey guys,

You may have seen me lurking around the forums the last few weeks. Anyway i just picked up the new beast on friday and loving it!! . its a Black 02 RS 250T Stocked as it has all the options i wanted, Dual sun roof, leather interior, Factory Momo steering wheel and a few others.

I have a few plans but nothing to crazy and will make sure i keep you all updated. Short term plans are some black 18s or 19s. Then Turbo back exhaust and Front mount and im sure a little intake modification while i'm at it.

Always keen for a cruise so hope to see some of you guys out there.

And yeah i live on the northern beaches of sydney, but work all over sydney, so keep an eye out for me and say hi if you see me. DSC00558.jpgDSC00557.jpg

Full aero kit, very nice. (I am biased though...) :)

haha yeah its a nice kit, this thing seriously has everything i wanted.

Oh yeah Scotty, this is the same Brick from M35stagea forum thats been talking to you about dump and exhaust stuff

damn you! there was nothing in black with all those options when i was looking! although i am happy with pearl white :)

Interested to see the momo wheel, never know that existed!

does anyone else have the mirror covers with the led indicators on them? ive yet to see anyone else with them

Welcome brick, love them in black.

Mine has them too - I thought they were part of the aero kit?

Nice pick up, although I don't envy you with the colour, good luck keeping that clean!

Nup, additional option (my aero kit doesn't have them either)

    • 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?
