Wow, what an amazing day - thanks to the organisers and can't wait for the next one.

I knocked off 20sec, 20sec, 10sec, 10 sec 7sec each run then had to back off because of oil temps, but i'm definitely hooked to track days now so much fun.

^^^ WOW!!!!

Great day...blew a wastegate hose on the way up and on the way home my exhaust has decided to mate on to my chassis and is making horrid noises..Im guessing that's what Roy was complaining about..

Not a single problem on the track though, go figure..

Took half a tank of E85 and 60lt in drums..did 16 or so laps and drove home on a full tank.. @ just over a 1$ a ltre I'd say that's pretty good value..

All in all was most fun I've had in ages :D

Weather was spot on.

Bugger about the oil down (2 hour delay) and the crash at the end.

Heaps of new faces. Sorry to those we couldnt get driver trainers for, there were just so many of u!

Had a great time, caught up with a bunch of you. Saw some cars and didnt talk to everyone, just so much going on!

The next event it during WTAC weekend, so i will see u again at WINTON.

Good thing i took the car off the track when I did. was pretty nasty driving home. not sure if clutch or synchros. still had lots of fun and probably spent more time on the road than the Chaser's Evo...\

crash? who? what time?

weather was great

disclaimer going up now.

results won;t be up for a week.

I'm out fo town for a few days so won;t get a chance till next weekend.

Rexy wagon came off into the wall at turn 12 right at the end of the day.

but i'm definitely hooked to track days now so much fun.

Your life is no longer your own haha

Was a final test day for them. Now they're going to make that mess of a front bar into dry carbon. They had a broken windscreen too. Random.

I cracked one years ago from sandown ripple strips haha

What happened to your car today mate?? Your car looked and sounded awesome, love your work on the front splitter.

what an awesome track, this was my first time at PI so I am happy with my times and still so much more left in it, need more balls.

thanks to the organisers, officials and photographers. also thanks to John for showing me around in my first session :thumbsup: Does anyone know when the next PI day is? I have found PIARC and MSCA events in Sept so I think I might aim for one of those events.

Only managed to get one session in before the water return line from the turbo decided to $hit itself. BOOooo!

Hoping the engine is OK... Drove back though with a replacement part brought down by a friend. No water usage at the moment (not yet!!!)

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
