Car is much neater, much tighter in every way. ATS clutch rattlesa little when the car is switched off. Rear pads sound a bit squeaky/rubbing but are only a few hundred old.

Everything appears to work etc. No knock on PFC, only 1.2kg boost on the MFD so not a nismo MFD.

Transferring deposit and chasing jap history - see my other thread.

Haha...great thanks! I am really fussy too so we are both on the same page.

Have been plugging away for quite awhile now. Looking for BB VSpec 1 or 2. ?

Yes I was aware of that one but my fussiness extends to a 4.5B grade kinda car! Lol Which is why it's so hard to find one at a decent price. Have missed out a few from Jap Auctions due to my initial ignorance but it's too late now coz the Aud has taken a dive. ?

Great thread ActionDan, I enjoyed the time travel, glad you got "theOne" that you wanted. Some good info in here, just makes me miss my Skyine all the more, good luck with the 34 - I like it much more without the wing though!

Hah get stuffed.

Still chasing Jap history check. I have transferred a deposit...

I may have also sold the MILs Statesman which will be perfect timing to get the shed space back.

My guess realistically for the 34 is a few weeks - jap history check, organise to get back up there etc.

Something that did stand out about the car, I was just thinking about it, has an ATS twin plate carbon in it and when turning the car off there was a pronounced rattle as the flywheel/pressure plate stopped turning.


I'm aware of rattle on idle, but wasn't aware of pronounced rattle on shutdown.

Thoughts?

    • 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 👌
