strikes are based on the driver, not the car.

they dont reset, when you get to three you are the final straw for three years. AKA, my car has just been auctioned off and i do it again, 2nd car immediatly auctioned off.

i find it f**ked that only 15 people have died because of street racing since 1997 yet they are confiscating our cars.

as to the guy that said they would know your rego, you ever heard of a fake identity (aka, the whole lot inc birth extract, bank accounts, address etc). If i KNOW i am going to be caught thats only a small effort to go to in my books

that would have been me.

i dont get it. are you saying get your rego details changed to fake details? and even if so do you honestly think many ppl are going to go to that effort so they have a chance of escaping cops?etc? think about this aswel: youd have to change your plates EVERYTIME you escaped a chase.

i think it would be a MUCH easier task to not hoon. or atleast be very selective about where you do it :(.

cheers. james.

EDIT:

yet they are confiscating our cars.
correction: they are not confiscating OUR cars just people who hoon. you make it sound like EVERY BODY on this forum hoons. and also, just because it was ONLY 15 ppl who died, try using that argument against the family members of those who died.

i personally think that faking your details is rather extreme and stupid way to get out of losing a car. if you get cought for it then you get into even more trouble for fraud.

as for hooning, a guy i know bought a r34 gtr off a guy that had lost 16points in 3 weeks. he owned the car for 3 weeks, then sold it after he lost his licence, since he knew he was going to lose more points when he got his licence back.

and as for changing your plates after every chase, if the cops type in a rego plate and it no longer is valid, it still shows them who it was registered to, and the new rego number, so that is pointless too.

and the cops have about 2 weeks to book you after the incident. so if you get into a chase and the cops don't happen to get your rego, park the car for 2 weeks afterwards.

meh i cant think of anything more retarded than these new laws

Sweet.. i lose traction in the wet, and i get put down for "drifting" and my car gets clamped at south kensington station, next morning its got the crap keyed out of it and shaving creme in every orifice..

That in itself is f*kd.. They said they may tow they may clamp but id be hoping it was down to the drivers choice, which one happens.

second offence you lose the car for 3 months.. thats probably not so bad..

But as some one said before they start trying to take peoples cars on the 3rd offence, ther'll be somehigh speed chases.. People gonna have like secondary drop down number plates, that cover there real ones and crap, james bond style. Also, if a guy gets pulled over on 3rd offence and theres 4 other blokes in the car, theres a pretty good chance that a cop or two will get hurt as soon as he says "im repossessing your car"

Personally i would run before letting them take my car.. i wouldnt think about it being stupid, id just go "screw that they can take a burned out shell if anything" and drive..

fake identities are a bit extreme, but a fake passport etc is like a grand for a good one, less than a 34 GT-R...

15 people killed since 97 and they do more for this than stopping drink drivers etc, it aint about savin lives. taking a drunk's licence away, and throwin him in jail will cost the stat money, auctioning off skylines will make HEAPS.

mad082 - go steal a set of plates, do a runner. then the cops cant prove it was your car, even though there might not be many around like yours, but any half decent lawyer would make a mocary of it in court. in short, steal a set of plates, go race, ditch the plates, wait a few weeks till the heat blows over, go do it again.

R32 gts-t, i know what you mean, and you prove my point from before, theres gonna be a hell of a lot more high speed chases, and not from crazed bank robbers and what not like you see on worlds wildest police videos, it will be people that cant stand to see their pride and joy get taken away from them, with no return/compensation, made even worse by the fact that you will be labeled a hoon when you arent meaning to do anything wrong, like your wet road situation. it happens to my mother sumtimes in a crap EA falcon, its damn sure to happen to some-one with a turbo skyline

but if it is just a spur of the moment race, you don't really have time to pull over and grab a set of plates off a parked car. then if you do get chased and happen to get away from the cops, but happen to run a red light in your escape and get clipped by a car, then the cops turn up to that you get into more trouble again, and could end up being someones bitch in a 3x3 cell.

so its easier to do the right thing in the first place.

i seriously dont know how ppl get into high speed chases. if your racing on the streets and go past the cops at high speed i dont think there going to chase you.

if so they have a duty of care. cops chasing cars at high speed is stupid. they're only going to make the person running from the cops panic and increase the chance of ana ccident and innocent ppl being hurt or killed.

yeah but cops have these wonderful things called radios, they dont need to chase you, they let you go, then when you think its all good and drive like normal, there'll be heaps more of em waitin for you down the road, or better yet, on your doorstep

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
