GTR R35

It has defect me written all over it. You have a car that attracts attention, well you got it. While I do not think your car is bad in any way, having big wheels (they stick out of the guards, this is a defect), milo can exhaust (another defect) and stickers everywhere is just asking for it.

It failed to sell: Negotiations continue for the sale of tennis ace Bernard Tomic's infamous orange BMW after the highest bid of $146,000 failed to meet reserve at an auction in Brisbane today. Pickles Auctions prestige vehicle account manager David Luckman said the sale of the high performance car was watched by more than 100 online bidders plus a packed auction room, but failed to meet the reserve that was “not as high as $200,000”.

I have been told he is up for $10k+ on the excess

Put it up on youtube and point some media to the video. You do not need to notify them, as they do not notify you that they are mic'ed up and have in car video on all highway cars. As long as one party is aware of the recording, there is no need to notify them. It is a public place and no form of privacy is expected.

Yep that is the one. Want the 370GT Four Type P, it is the AWD one. They are heaps nicer than a Murano.

I tried shannons website, but they did not list the crossover (or any skyline), so I will need to call them. Having the means to pay the finance is not a problem, I am more after companies that are understanding of a unique car. Thanks for the feedback about Shannons.

I am looking to purchase a Nissan Skyline Crossover for about $60k, the problem is nobody knows what the hell this car is. Before I commit to the purchase I would like to know the insurance cost as well as find someone who can do the finance on it. As the car is only 2 years old, I should be able to get Corporate Hire Purchase, but again finance companies are a bit funny about lending money on a unique car. Can anyone offer some guidance to the places that will insure it and finance it. I have a 60% NCB and have a great credit record, so I do not need anything dodgy.

Well done on assisting in their capture, pays to keep a lookout, most criminals are stupid and will return if they think there is still stuff to steal. Hope everything is returned and they drop the soap in jail on a daily basis.

As the others have said, you need to be more specific as to the point is she came to a complete stop. If she did then she is at fault. I would also contact the duty seargent at the local police station and make a formal complaint as to how you were treated by the attending officer. They have no right to be so beligerant towards you. Funny thing I had the reverse happen to me. I was pulling out of a parking spot on a 2 lane road using my indicator. A car in the right most lane decided to move intot he middle lane and just clipped me. He was an off duty cop and I had a ticket for not leaving the kerb with due caution. He called the police and they were there in 5 mins. I wished cops turned up that quick when I called them.

There are only 2 models you should choose for OZ. They are the Beltronics STi-R (BEL STiR) and Escort Passport 9500ci Remote Radar Detectors. Both units work very well are undetectable. I know people who use them and have saved them many times. The LIDAR Jammers also work very well, although you need to ensure the heads are located near the numberplate and are difficult to see. Prepare to spend upwards of $2500 for a good setup. The Veil stuff is very noticable and only effective against LIDAR (Laser). As others have said, the best way to avoid fines is not to speed, but a RD and jammer also helps. As far as false alarms is conserned with the GPS enabled RD's they learn the false spots. Also the NSW police have now switched to Ka band for their mobile units, so falsing is almost a thing of the past, although the new active cruise control in high end cars causes some falsing. As for being able to be detected, a RD can only be detected if it is switched on. You turn it off and no RDD will detect it. Also there are only 3 RDD units in NSW (last i heard), and they are generally in country areas for truck RD enforcement. There is so much BS and scare tactics in regards to RD usage. Yes it is a $1000 fine and 9 points, but the chances of getting caught is very slim. You will find more people run them than you might think.

Being the owner of a FPV and a Ford, I am a bit biased, but your choice of a BF FPV Tornado vs a new SS-V, I would get the Holden. The reaosn is the new commo has better tech than the BF. If you put a SSV and a New FG XR6Turbo ute, I would get the Ford. The Ford FG is so much nicer inside than the Holden and will also carry 1ton, be more responsive to mods (300rwkw under $3k) and if you get the ZF auto is a gearbox made in heaven.

I am fairly sure a Section 10 will still lose 3 points. Unless your charges are dismissed, you will lose points, even when you win. You need to apply to the RTA to have the points dropped on a win, but a S10 means case proven no fine but cop the points. From Armstrong Legal Section 10 Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act - Avoiding a Criminal record Normally, when you plead guilty to a criminal or traffic offence the Court imposes a penalty and records a conviction. If the court records a conviction you will have a criminal record. In traffic matters this may also include a loss of license. However, if we were able to convince the Court not to convict you, there would be no penalty, no loss of licence, and no criminal record. In all Criminal and Traffic Law cases a Court has the discretion not to convict you but deal with you under the terms of section 10. What is a “section 10” The expression “section10” refers to section 10 of the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act 1999. This section allows a Court that finds you guilty of an offence, to discharge you without recording a conviction. Because there is no conviction, there is no criminal record. Additionally, there is no loss of drivers license and no other penalty. Types of section 10's. There are three types of section 10s: Outright dismissal – Section 10(1)(a) Conditional dismissal with a good behaviour bond - Section 10(1)(b) Conditional dismissal with a rehabilitation course – Section 10(1)© Outright dismissal – Section 10(1)(a) An outright dismissal under section 10 involves the court dismissing the offence without any conditions. The matter is completely over as soon as you walk out of the Court room. Conditional dismissal with a good behaviour bond - Section 10(1)(b) A Court can dismiss a charge under s10, but at the same time put you on a good behaviour bond for up to 2 years. The bond can have any conditions which the Court wants you to abide by. At a minimum these include : That you be of good behaviour (that is, that you do not commit any further offences) That you advise the Court of any change of address and That you appear before the Court if called upon to do so If you breach any conditions of the bond, the Court can call you up before it, revoke the bond and impose a different sentence for the offence. This is the most popular way that a court deals with an offender under section 10. Section 10- with intervention program This refers to a section 10 which is conditional on you entering an intervention program of some kind (such as the Traffic Offenders program), completing that program successfully and complying with any action plan that results from that program. How to avoid a criminal record? Courts do not give out section10’s easily. Normally a Courts will need a lot of convincing before granting you a section 10. The law says that in deciding whether to give a person a section 10, the Court must consider the following issues: Your age, character, record, health and mental condition. The trivial nature of the offence. Any extenuating circumstances Anything else the Court think is relevant. Honest and Expert advice Things you may not have hard about a section 10 Because of its huge benefits, section 10 is perhaps the best known section in the whole of the Criminal Law. Just about anyone, from all kinds of lawyers to your friends and work colleagues may tell you all sorts of things about section 10s. Unfortunately, section 10 is also perhaps the most widely misunderstood law. As the saying goes : “a little knowledge can be dangerous”. Here are some facts about a section 10 which you may not have been told about (or may have been told the wrong information): 1. If you get a section 10 with a bond, it will appear on your criminal record for the duration of the bond. While section 10 itself expressly says that it is not a conviction, under the Criminal Records Act 1991, a section 10 is actually defined as a conviction that becomes spent (that is, extinguished) as soon as the bond is finished. This means that if you need to show a clean criminal record in the near future (for example if you are about to apply for a job or travel overseas) you really need to obtain an outright section 10. 2. If you have committed a traffic offence which attracts demerit points, and you are worried about the loss of license, a section 10 will not help. The RTA will still impose the demerit points even if you get a section 10. 3. For certain traffic offences, you can not get more than one section 10’s within a period of 5 years. 4. After you get a section10, (with some limited exceptions) you do not have to disclose it to your employer or anyone else- even if they ask specifically about them. More and more employers these days are getting smarter about the way in which they ask questions about criminal history in job applications. Many ask not just about convictions, but also about sections 10s or “findings of guilt” (a section 10 is still a finding of guilt). Many people presume that if a question like this is asked, you have to answer it honestly and disclose any previous section 10s. This may not necessarily be the correct approach. Section 12 of the Criminal Records Act 1991 says that you do not need to disclose a “spent conviction” to any one for any purpose. Because that act also defines a section 10 as a “spent conviction”, it can be argued that even if an employer asks you a direct question about any previous section 10’s or ‘findings of guilt”, you do not have to disclose these as long as any section10 bond has expired. At this stage there is no decided cases as to what the correct position is. This article should not be construed as legal advice, it simply raises an argument that may or may not be endorsed by a court.

Good find. I have been using Nulon since it was released. Good supporting an aussie company, charging a fair price for a great product.

You think that is bad, you should see what happens on the Ford/Holden forums. Very one eyed owners bagging the crap out of cars they have never driven and suffering a severe case of NFI. Getting honest info on genuine questions is great. SAU is a good source of info and a great community.
