I'd like to put my hand up and say,

My name is Rick, and i've been done at Homebush Bay.

Fortunately for me it was only 15-30 over. Too easy on those roads, especially when theres not a car in sight, you just wouldn't think to check your speed.

I think you'll have to cop it. Theres not many excuses you can cough up that anyone will listen to :D

seriously decide whether u need ur license now or in a year if u dont really need it now cop the fine, but if u do then what i recommend is go to court. this will take a year for the case to be heard so u will still be allowed to drive for the year till ur court case,

i got done for 48 over and i went to court to apeal it it took a year for the case to even get there, the judge said i was a time waster and said i had no evidence and i was guilty, i pleded that i was a student and i had no traffic offenses in the last year, sbasically wear a nice shirt pants and see if ur dad or mum can say a few words. even though the judge will go why are u hear u just remain that u were innocent and u dont think u were doing what the policeman said u were doing and say 1500 is alot to pay for a student.

i got off 3months suspension

56$ court fees

and a 500 fine :D the cop and prosicuter was like WTF! ahahah sweeet beats paying 1500

hope this helped

you might want to think about that a bit more. although i do think you might have a small chance of reducing your fine, it can backfire on you and you can cop a bigger fine. on top of the court fees you can get a maximum of $2200 and minimum of 6 month suspension.

A guy I used to work with was pulled over for speeding, his reason was that he believed he was about to have an asthma attack. The police gave him a fine and 3 month suspension, he took it to court and walked away with a 6 month suspension.

Just be carefull when taking it to court.

I use the

OFFICER, I HAVE TO GO TO THE TOILET

worked twice...

but, in all honesty, i'd be taking that to court, no lawyer, rep yaself, and tell the truth. I'v seen worse get off, including a mate in a similar situation, where he was speeding and went thru a red light at St Peters.. while they were doing big roadwords, all the glare rebounded off the metal sheets they cover the road with, glared him to death, and went thru a red light. Went to court and the maj. told the cop he was a heartless man with no undertstanding.. all over, he wins....

Oh, and as for Homebush bay... Some signs are in bad places.

I was with a mate once after new years eve at his dad's unit, and we went for a fang in his mum's verada....we had a run in with a local cop, who came from no-where, pulled us over, and tried to tell us her were driving dangerously and at high speeds throughout homebush all night.... he denied it, i was confused as to where he must have seen us, since we had just left his dad's unit, and the engine temp on the car was still cold...all the proof we needed was the engine temp, when he saw that, he got angry... i dunno what proof he thought he had, but... asks questions about cops....personally, i hate highway patrol officers.. they love pushing you...bastards

i I fought similar situation that happened to me when I got caught driving unlicensed due to a bungle of roads and traffic authority I actually took the matter to court and won , the suspension lifted and fine reduced , so I wish you all the best and don’t feel like the law is always is right matters in life arnt always black and white its you right to question it .

most people slow down when they cant see the road because of the sun or what ever reason...

even if you didnt know it was 40, it was still unlikely to be more than 60...

Sorry to sound harsh, but usually its one bad apple ruins it for all.

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      By weikleenget · Posted

      I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car

      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.
