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.

    • Anything above ~9.5V is acceptable. The higher the better, but it will almost always drop to at least 10.5V, if not lower, even with a new big battery and everything else being good. 9.76 is not a concern. If it goes below 9, you'd be sure that there's a problem with either the battery or the connections.
    • It's new almost. Under a year old i think and I've tested it twice at supercheap
    • Glue the head from a Pez dispenser on it. Goofy, or Winnie the Pooh, so something.
    • Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.
    • How old is the battery, it's more likely your battery is on its way out.
