oooooooo i am going to do something similar to mine... what paint primer and clear did u use?

where and how much! (and i aint talking about ur manwhore services either biatch)

i thought u were gonna comment on my story!!:)

Primer - motorspray acrylic primer surface

Clear - bodytech fast dry enamel

Paint - micra blue paint from autobarn.

The rest is preety cheap from supercheap auto!

needs a whole day to do as u gotta sand the piece, apply primer let dry sand again, apply primer again, dry, 3 coats of paint, dry between each and then 3 coats of clear, dry between each!!

In the end it looks sweet tho

Is that a boost switch in the centre console?

If so.. That's a pretty tricky place to put it.

Wish I had thought of that!! Everyone can see me lean over to flick mine... Cause I'm short.. and we have recaro racing seats.. I have to lean to reach the dash :)

I dont know about u guys...but i thought it lookz coolz INASNT :) . I know I'll probably get mobbed for saying this, (and my comeback would be dat INASNT did it 2...thankz buddy :|o|: ) but i'm thinking of doing the same, but in red, with red covers, i saw something like dat in one of the forums and thought it looked pretty good.

Only negative is...u shouldnt have painted the steering wheel cover....datz 2 much blue in one place.

I was thinking of painting the dash console that comes off around the sterio and air con vents but it might b 2 much!

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
