sad to hear about the chick (R.I.P) its not looking good for p plates with the new laws that thay wont to bring in. I think every one shod have to do a duefensive driveing cause befor thay get there p plates but we will probly never see that happen.

makes you think relly hard about speeding and runing from the cops.

I don;t know how long ago you're talking but I passed mine first go, 13 yeards ago.

I failed first go. However I have since driven more than 10 years with not a single prang. But the story on ACA the other night proves that you can get your license first go even with serious offenses, such as this chick that was going over the speed limit on one or two ocassions on the test. She even admitted that she shouldn't have been given her license.

as per Win News TV Report website

Police have released the name of the Rockhampton woman, killed yesterday morning in Maryborough.

Twenty-year-old Kristina Ann Tynan drowned after the car she was in crashed into a lagoon, after a short police chase.

Ms Tynan was a passenger in the car. The driver and another male passenger managed to escape.

The driver's been charged with dangerous driving causing death, callous disregard, and failure to remain at the scene of an accident.

Condolences to the girl and her family. Seems there were charged, some people may say thats not much but if the guys had any feelings for her they would have enough on their mind without harsher punishent. If they don't then yeah they deserve more. I know if i caused an accident and killed my wife I'd be devistated, particually if it was something as stupid as this.

The tester probably saw the halo above your head though Mud :)

It was obviously unwriten policy, so some would have dissagreed with it.

Condolances to the girl's family, but I have to question the reports into what the Police said they were doing. If he didn't stop at a RBT (even one being run by two officers in a squad car) how come they didn't communicate there pursuit to base? They said they didn't have time?? Crap! They were probably chasing this car for a few minutes and were enjoying the rush of the chase and when it went pear shaped they panicked and broadcast a story to cover their asses!! It was stupid to run, but you tend to run faster when chased!!

Oh yeah, got my licence from the local cops on Bribie Island who I had been driving home from parties at my parents house since I was forteen. I turned up for my test and they shit!!! Did it in a truck and passed after a 25 minute test that was very harsh as he made me do some hard stuff in the truck!!!

So he did get Vehicular manslaughter, he is going to never forget her ...

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
