It is nice to see people sign up to offer their condolences the family and friends of those killed in this tradgedy.

Dont walk away from this scared of your skylines people. Walk away with respect for your skylines, the road rules, human life and your driving ability.

Hit the nail on the head dude. RESPECT.

I signed up with the express purpose to express my condolences to the friends and family of all involved. It`s a tragic thing to happen no matter what they were doing as everyone says, may know they were doing wrong but no need to add salt to the wound.

Things happen for a reason i guess just a f**ked part of life.

I have seen a couple of pics of that car and its was pure sex on wheels.

*shame*

R.I.P

I'm just catching up on the news here from Perth and being all the way over here and not personally knowing the 3 people I feel sick to the stomach. I think a tragedy like this is close to the home of all of us and I hope it makes people realise that they must take care on our roads.

Condolences to family, friends and SAU from the ModYourCar team.

I woke up in front of the TV before, and a news report was on, saw the report of the crash and thought i recognised the car... as soon as it was over i jumped on here hoping i'd seen/heard wrong, but unfortunately i hadn't ;)

I had that car as my wallpaper up until a few days ago :(

My condolences go out to all involved/affected by this tragedy... nobody deserves to go like this.

R.I.P.

All my best wishes to those affected by this tradegy,

I'm praying that those people who have lost someone they loved have the strength to get through this.

A lesson for us all,

This can and will happen again,

Thats what I'll be thinking the next time I'm tempted to drop the right foot, hope everyone else does as well.

In the end life is all we have,

R.I.P.

My thoughts and condolences go out to all victim's friends and family. Please let this be a lesson to all that speed kills. Next time you are in a car and showing off infront of your mates think again, is it really worth it for a few short seconds of fun? endangering others lives....for fun?

again my deepest sympathys for all involved especially all SAU members that knew EVLGTR personally (DRFT32).

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • 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.
