Can you switch over to hardware serial ?
Then you could use an interrupt to receive the data.
Less pins used too.

Always wear safety glasses while programming.
Hi,
You can't use Shiftin and Shiftout like that. Both commands expects to be "in control" - both acts as the "master" - so they can't really be used the way you want.
Using RS232 as mackrackit suggests is probably your best bet. You can use either the hardware USART or the bitbanged SERIN(2)/SEROUT(2) commands with flow control to make sure PIC 1 doesn't begin sending before PIC 2 is ready.
