Mmmm. so tempting! I was planning on going to the SnS though...

My issue is that I have slotted brakes that don't have slots anymore! and need new pads...

I was hoping that winton was going to be my last blast with these brakes so I didn't need to spend any more money on this setup before I put on my G4s.

PI is hard on brakes right? or does the flowing corners mean less big stops?

Its fairly hard on brakes, esp into Honda. i think its only right that you set a decent time there before you go and turn your car into a sports sedan, i wanna know how quick you are round there :) Would be a good comparison to compare to when its done too.

Piarc days sell out fairly quickly right?? how late can we enter??

Yeah I might head down for the Sunday.

I wanted to do a Sandown day before the year was out, but time didn't permit, so this might be the only option for some track time before the year is out.

Luke has entered the S14 for the Saturday.

Looking at the entry form. Are we class H? Over 3000cc modified?

Cash on the day coz I don't have a cheque book?

There is nothing about it on their website.

Yep only the sun for me bris...assuming my entry is accepted.

Russ, the classes don't really matter as it is more for the PIARC people doing their championship thing I think. I believe the turbo multiplier puts us in the over 3000 classes.

Cash on the day should be fine....was last time I did a PIARC day.....if you want confirmation email the event sec Teresa at [email protected].

i'll get my car running first. ive pulled all the epa un-friendly parts off of it. if i go, i'll be going with just a exhaust and cooler. which would be good in a way, as i wanna go just to suss out the circuit.

quick question re scrutineering.

they say 2 bonnet secure methods, are they insisting on bonnet pins ? aiming at older cars that don't have a spring catch and a lever'd saftey latch

it ain't obvious! and i'm considering the saturday event.

It means 2 'methods'. The standard latch is only 1 method.

Pins or a belt will work.

    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
    • Does anyone know if this is off centered? Looks like it, when I indicate to go right, but turn my steering wheel slightly left it cancels (was always like that even before I started messing around with it) was wondering if anyone else has the same issue?
    • Nothing photo worthy since last update, lots of little plumbing bits for the AAC/Cold start valves, and unfortunately I still need another couple of parts for the brake booster line and the AAC into the plenum. Otherwise it all looks good to start up engine wise, onto checking the electrics/interior
    • Good news mate, plenty of spares available 5:40
