Ahaha I regret starting this thread because I new so many people would get caught up in the intricacies of the laws, when I posted this assuming people new about these new laws, and was simply wondering who has been caught.

Yeh mate I did buy it full well noing it was ilegal, and if I do get caught it is somthing I have factered in. Im not gona be the one to have a winge about being targeted, because by choising to drive I skyline I acept that naturaly I will be targeted. I was aware of it from the start. I think this topic is geting off what I oringaly started it for. Which is not what the laws are, not why I am choising to disabay these laws, not why I have to justify my decision. But I simply wanted to no who has gotten away with it. Thats all.

Mate skyline/import owners already had a bad name before I bought one. What if I drove a turbo volvo and never got picked up once, but it still makes it ilegal. Does that then give a bad name for all volvo drivers? The fact is skylines have been a target car befor I got mine. But I dont have the luxuray of towing it to the track, I got to do what I got to do, dosnt make me a bad person.

Because if you read in my opening, it isnt my daily, and it was bought as a track car. I dont take the risk all the time, mayb once or twice a week, and eventualy it will be to just drive to and from the track.

I am aware of this. It is only a mater of time... But I am just wondering who else hasnt been caught!

I think people have missunderstood my question. I am aware of the laws. I am aware of the before and after july 1st 2007 laws. I am asking who has actualy been caught, because it dosnt seem like anyone has been done, under the new laws.

Yes I am aware this topic has been done to death, and I am posting out to all those who I asume know the new laws. But incase your not up to speed. As quoted from vicroads: " As part of Victoria’s new graduated licensing system, new restrictions on driving high powered vehicles apply to all drivers who obtain their probationary licence after 1 July 2007. From 1 July 2007, new restrictions on driving high powered vehicles will be introduced for probationary licence drivers who obtain their licence from 1 July 2007. From this date a probationary licence holder will not be able to drive a vehicle if it has: An engine of eight or more cylinders; a turbocharged or supercharged engine (except diesel powered vehicles); an engine that has been modified to increase its performance; and/or any of the following high performance six cylinder vehicles as published in the Government Gazette: " Basicaly I am asking if anyone has had these rules inforced on them. As everyone I no who is affected by these laws, and is choosing to break them, has not been caught buy them. I am thinking that the police are unaware of the laws perhaps.

Hi guys. I recently purchased a skyline to build up as a track car. But I bought one with RWC and Rego so I can occasionally drive it on the road. Firstly as I obtained my licence in September 2007, this car is illegal for me to drive. But when buying the car, I was able to insure it my name, with the insurance company knowing the date of my receiving of licence. Also registering the car in my name at vicroads. At no stage did any flashing lights or alerts along this process came up, with no one alerting me to the fact that this car is illegal to drive. Also I have been recently pulled over, and defected, and at least 3-4 police offices handled my licence as I was detained for over an hour. At no stage did any officer ask if my car was turbo, although you can see on the intake pipe "intercooled turbo" and they new it was a turbo car. I am not alone, as many of my other mates, have been taking the turbo risk, one even in a VL commodore has been canaried by TMU. So I put the question out there. Has any one been done for driving a turbo who is affected by these new laws?

Ive pmd u mate, I will buy all the guages. let me no.

What: Hey just after a 3" turbo back or cat back exhaust. After something cheap 2nd hand, stainless would be great, but mild steel fine. For an r32 4 door. Location: I am in melbourne, and happy to come pick up. Price: Cheap. Let me no what you got.

Hey guys, this is probs a noob question, but my car (r32 gtst 4 door) idles very high, sometimes up around 1500. I assume I probably have a dirty ICV? Sometimes when the car just starts the idle goes up and down from 1000 to 1500 back and forth. Just wondering how big of a job is it to clean it? and where abouts is it located. Cheers.

What state/suburb you in? Im interested

Bump... anyone got one? need it as car is not longer road worthy.

Hey guys just fited my momo wheel, similar style to omp/nardi and it didn't come with a horn button. I am runing a GKTEK boss kit wether that makes any differnce. Just after a horn button to make my horn work for rwc. So not fussed as long as it fits. Cheers. EDIT: Located in Melbourne south eastern suburbs.

Hey guys my names Paul. This is my new 4 door r32. Picked her up fair cheap. Its stock at the moment apart from a turbo timer, and a pody. Its a bit rough with a few electrical demons. Car locks and unlocks it self when started, turbo timed unlocks car when finished if cars locked. And oil pressure works intermittently. But happy because I have time to work on it and fix it up. Future plans include some kind of fuel cut thingy??? I am having boost cut problems when i rev past 5-6ish rpm. I think i need a FCD or a SAFC??? Want to get a r34 side mount, r34 turbo, exhaust, and boost it a little bit. Here are some pics for ur viewing pleasure. Also want to get a gtr front lip and maybe ditch the rear wing when its lowered on some coil-overs But its gonna stay fair inconspicuous, don't want to be harassed by police.

Thats really good to know. So all engine mods are the same? Also was wondering about the brakes, are they any different being a 4 door. I am thinking about doing the r33 gtst front brake upgrade any dramas being 4 door? Also does the suspension require different spring rates? Or can I get away with using 2nd hand coilovers out of a r32 coupe?. A lot of my mods will be cheap 2nd hand stuff of forums and the wreckers so just sussing out compatibility. Cheers.

Hey Guys and Girls. Just about to pick up a stock r32 4 door. Mainly gonna be used as a drift pig, but still streeted. Just my main question is what are the major aftermarket part differences with the 4 doors. I am building this car on the cheap, and looking at ebay, wreckers, and forums for parts. And wondering will normal r32 parts fit straight in. Like engine, suspension, or what ever you have had problems with because you drive a 4 door I would love to no. Especially so I know what I am getting into. Any advice, help or starting points would be much appreciated. Cheers. .
