Booked in for inspection tomorrow 3:00pm at Dickson :)
Pretty farken keen!

Got myself a UVP for the day and if it fails then they will give me a weekly UVP to get shit sorted.

The only concern I have is that the black rims might rub on the guards but they passed when they were on the 33

So the swapping of rims was a success, the black rims fit nice on the 34 but they do poke on the front.

Couldn't find the source of the rattle with the suspension, got the back seat with (with robs advice) and everything looked fine.

Removed the spare tyre etc and the noise was still there.

It 100% sounds as if the suspension is loose so I'll have to have a closer look on the weekend, I might grab your help with this Rob if it's okay?

Wish me luck with the inspection today :D

SO I FAILED!

BUT there is a silver lining of this cloud.

Because they found one source of the rattle in my suspension, the front part is missing two bolts.

Also my left blinker has fallen out of the holder.

The guy was really nice and said fix those two things and bring it back tomorrow morning, he will then pass it :)

The bummer though is that I have to now organise another UVP which is bloody expensive at $40 a pop

Umm I don't know how to upload rob but I'll send it to you.

Should be able to steal the bolts off the 33 to pass the inspection and hopefully the blinker isn't too hard.

Hopefully get all that done tonight and go for re-inspection tomorrow before 8:00

    • 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 👌
