But a minimum 280rwkw's, but preferably around the 300 mark.

Wow... you're set!

[Do-Luck]

Think I'm going to have to give PI a miss. Gotta clear a defect, and try get bigger brakes and a rear strut brace in time. Spewing

Should be right for Sandown though

Should be right for Sandown though Lucky I'm doing DT otherwise I'm in modified class

That's a shame, saw your car at Protek today...

What brakes you upgrading to??

Haha, it's there to get the car ready for a RWC so I can clear a canary.

Most likely get R33 GTS-t rotors and calipers up front, and see how that goes. Hopefully I don't get too much front brake bias. Be good going from single piston to four

If my car isn't ready, I'm definately down there to watch anyway

[R32gts-t]

Dane: what boost are you going to be running?

have you upgraded coils? or hks v power box?

that's an impressive power figure, pack your spare undies

[phunky_monkey]

haha I already packin' some spares

The car already has 242rwkw's, just don't use it on the track, so I don't think the jump in power will feel that great to me. My old RX7 was faster I reckon, and a hell of a lot scarier!!

Want to run around 1.3-1.4bar, but we'll see how it goes. It's a high comp motor (9:1), so we'll see how it reacts. Coils are stock for now.

It's already breaking down a bit at 1.4bar, but we'll give them a clean and see how they go, if not I'll order in some splitfires. I might also put a map in for 100 octane and see how it goes on that.

My other cam gear and timing chain just arrived from japan, so we're set!

Shane: You shouldn't have too big of an issue man. I run S14/32 brakes up front with single pot rears and I don't have an issue. just match your pads well. Once my rear pads went it was REALLY tail happy under brakes, so the rear pads are really important!

RS500: PI can't be your first track day unless you do DT I think.

Troy: It'll be good to see how far the old jigger will go man. I'd be interested to see with my engine too, but I'd rather pull it out and sell it while it's still in good health, and I need a few other leaks, cracked manifold and stuff fixed up at the same time, hence my decision to do it early.

[Do-Luck]

Dane, yeah that's what I seem to think. Just as long as I buy the same quality pads for the rear that I'll be putting up front, it should be right.

[phunky_monkey]

Engine update: It's all apart and looking good

Will drop off the rocker arms tonight, and then they'll be off with the crank for cryo treating tomorrow

[Roy]

Cool. So are you going to be running the same turbo or upgrading?

[phunky_monkey]

Same turbo for now Troy, but we'll see how it goes. My guess is that it's going to be the limiting factor in what power I produce, but I like the setup so I'm keen to push it as far as I can.

Because it's a high comp setup, I'm hoping the turbo will cope well enough with the boost I plan on running, but we'll see, it's not particularly big...

[R TUNE]

hey guys i wona put my name down to race at pion the 31st march, tell me what i need to do chears brentt

[phunky_monkey]

Hey mate, you need to wait until the supp regs and entry forms are available, then you just fill them out and fax them in to the number supplied. Easy as that.

[R TUNE]

when will this be as the event is 3 weeks away?

[Bec]

It will be when the WRX Club release them - they will be posted as soon as we have them.

It shouldn't be too much longer - be patient.

FYI: Pretty sure PI cannot be your first track day, assuming it is your first...but I'm sure someone will let you know officially..

[Roy]

You guys arent going to know what hit you. Mor eboxes were just delivered to work....

Aren't you supposed to be saving for an OS holiday?

[Snowman]

How can he possibly look a Frenchman in the eye knowing he's only done a 1.58 @ PI in his life.

[R TUNE]

dont worry ive done some track days before at winton and i race at calder on a regula basis so i know what im up for.
