Eventually I will have my 31 again. Then I will be a owner and a enthusiast once again! For now, I am a sideliner :P

I killed a R31 on Saturday night. I almost cried, I really didn't wanna beat but I killed him.

Fire, I didn't know about that! Ahh, now I know, did the demountables catch on fire or something?

My boyfriend and a few of his mates went to school with you. Thats how I know all this! Thanks for letting me in on the fire thing to! They hadn't told me about that bit!

lurks is a good word....

I "demonstrated" the power of my clutch by dropping into 2nd at 60km/h and wheelspinning for a few metres with mum in the car....she goes "wow, i didnt know a car could just 'start spinning' like that...phew"

haha thanks - luckily when i was younger i was cute but i grew into a monster haha.

havent heard about that photo no - haha how bad is it?

I'll probably be going to the next cruise - yes :P

Dad doesn't a) rule my life and B) have to live with him. Once when we moved out of the house we were renting together I had to move home and I was sooo upset without him that I moved in with his parents! Shows how good I am hay!

haha my mum hates me driving - she gets carsick as it is so now i wait til she's driving her car behind mine and I get a little bit of sideways action just to freak her out. She constantly is telling me im going to kill myself - she's going to jinx me i swear!

    • 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 👌
