Old gearbox mount is starting to peel off the rubber.

Looked for the cheapest fix so i put in one of those GKtech solid mounts.

Holy crap it makes the whole car rumble, and the gear whine is full on! And thats only backing up the driveway! :O

Maybe a bit harsh for my liking. I think its more of a full on race car thing.

Braided clutch line in, bit of a pain to bleed it.

Have to test drive and see how it goes.

Solid gearbox mount is too loud, has to go.

Bad shudders under acceleration, some problem that i can now feel cos of the solid mount.

Must diagnose and fix.

Richard, nice wheels, and i have to give back that boss kit sometime.

Replaced my left front upright because old one had damaged eye bolt that the coilover mounts to. Gave everything a nice clean ready for some cruise tomorrow :D

Rob esp are good with safc's so is auto tech hume albeit more expensive

Auto tech is Hume 100% just got my car back from them after being there a week. I'd say I'm happy with Ed's tuning and service. Car is running good. Ed tells me he don't really like haltech but he tuned it so well. I'd defiantly recommend Ed and the Autotech team with out hesitation.

After getting my car back id just like to tip my hat to Adrian and the guys at ultimate tunes for the finishing touches on the GTR. It drives and feels incredible. It has never ran so well. Couldn't be happier.

    • 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 👌
