First, links can only increase your PageRank, not decrease it. But the potential problem here is that the new sites could be seen as spam, thus reducing their effect. It should also be noted that a handful of links, while helpful, is only a minor benefit.

However, if you do go down this route you are much better off building up a solid site first, before linking back to your main site. You don't have to wait until Google updates its PR toolbar but you'd need a couple of months.

Of course, if you are not careful this could become cyclical - now you need to increase the popularity/value of the second site to make the links worthwhile!
