Congrats on the new car Matt.

Great pic and nice wheels!

Cheers Chris! Yeah I only just picked up the rims from depot and had tyres fitted yesterday. Definitely fills the guards more than the stockies :)

No worries mate.

Yeh really suits the car well! Love those rims.

That's awesome Matt. Looks like it's in great nick too!

I'm a BMW fan myself man! It's the only brand in the garage at the moment... to hard to go elsewhere ><

Cheers Richie :)

Looking forward to seeing more of your shots. Get out to any weddings on the 12/12/12? Was a popular day for that apparently.

Haha no I didn't. I would of LOVED to... but didn't get that opportunity. That would of been a great post haha.

Actually, I have just finished my year. If you like wedding/couples photography, I've just posted my 2012 end of year post on my website @ http://richardgrainger.com.au/story/2012--year-of-the-beginning/38

I'll share this on Facebook later this afternoon/tonight I reckon.

No I wouldn't say weddings are favourite subject material for me. I'd just heard people were going gaga over the 12/12/12 date and knew you'd done many weddings... Having said that, your website looks stunning Richie, well done mate. :thumbsup: When I get married in about 20 years' time I will seek out your services :P

On a side note, I won't be online much over the next week, so Merry Xmas everyone!

Yo. So I'm back from my little road trip. I had intended to post up from the road but it was just all to full on and was I was to busy enjoying myself. You can read up on the adventure here:

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • 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 👌
