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.

    • 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 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
