I am heading down for both days...the plan is to stay in Cowes on Fri and Sat night.

For those that have porblems with noise like me at WRX/AROCA days etc the PIARC event are full noise weekends with a Saturday practice and Sunday Sprint event.

I am looking to get a garage for the event so put you hand up if you want to share a garage.

I haven't been to a PIARC day, how much track time can you expect on the saturday and how do they group cars for the practice sessions?

Is it BYO timing for the saturday or can you pay to hire a dorian?

Shame I missed the Sat action (both on and off the track) but had a great day on Sunday. Hadn't tracked my car since the Nats last year so needed to dust off the cobwebs...and what better way to do it than a wet phillip island!

Had a ball in the morning on a wet track which then dried up allowing me to set a new PB. Only let down was my incar cam - battery life is def not its strong point which I am hoping to recify with a recent purchase. Oh wells there is an excuse to get back out there and do it all over again to capture it on film (although I'm not sure I want to repeat the pants soiling moment over and down lukie heights in a hurry).

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
