yeah im pretty glad i didnt have airbags the other day ..... probably end up with a few bruises. My dad was originally chasing a series 2 for me cos he didnt want to buy a Skyline without airbags.

$10K .... add another 8K and you could buy another VT for that!! Panel n Paint is such a rip!

Yup.

The excess is only like $150, there's no age excess as it was a not-at-fault claim :D

But it'll take it's sweet time eh! Wholesale value of the car wouldn't be more than 12k I reckon anyway... 99 model with 160k' on the clock :( *sigh*

If you actually look at the job in man hours, I shouldnt think it's take more than 4 solid days to fix... but panel shops are f*ckin dodgy and always take thier sweet time.. so give it 2 months!

Dan .... yeah that happened with my ZX .... and on the day i got it fixed picked it up had to grab something at shopping centre and some other twit not looking where they were reversing reversed right into again :( i only had it back from the panel shop 20mins!!

Paul yeah they are all refreshed and happy. Ben n Katrina seemed to have a good time down there too. Katrina just worked out that shes only 6 months older than me ...... it took a while.

Ok ..... the same shirt design eh?? ..... ok whats changing? We are having dark blue singlets with the logo ..... so you mean to say its the same white with blue straps as you showed me *screws up her nose cos i was only going dark blue ones to make it easier for you and keep the peace with kyles but i really dun like the white ones!!*

Normal T-shirts are unflattering ....... i'll sort my own out paul .... other girls can have what they wish but im fussy and high maintenance and a tough cookie to please and a total and utter difficult wench ...... but you already knew that.

I'll go to cotton on if its not raining today and pick something out.

    • 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 👌
