hey guys

as most of u know, in nsw we have p plate bans since 11 july 2005.

However, I am getting disqualifed from court soon, for speeding.

I am a current P plate holder, have had my license since 2004.

Will I still be able to drive Turbocharged & V8 powered vehicles?

The RTA website says :

Who will the prohibited vehicle condition apply to?

The prohibited vehicle condition applies to:

A re-issued P1 or P2 licence due to a disqualification for a driving offence that was committed on and after 11 July 2005.

Now, I'm pretty sure i fall under that, but alot of ppl have been telling me different.

When they say, re-issued, does that mean after like after being cancelled for good or what? anyone know the go?

Thanks Fellas :P

If you 'had' to go to court and lost your licence then no V8 or turbo for you. If you simply lose it due to points loss i beleive you will be fine, however if you were disqualified and went to court then your stuffed. Friend of mine lost his for dui special range (.01) on P2 and when he gets his licence back no v8 or turbo, also your p's will start again as told by police and the court. i.e the two years for P2 will have to be done all over again even if your licence was removed a week before you were to change to blacks. Very harsh if your in the same boat as my friend.

thats incorrect, when u get it back you can drive turbo/V8, only thuing is you will need to get your L's again hold those for 10days then do your P's again.

my mate got done DUI then got got caught driving without a licence, lost it fo0r 27 months and he has had to get his L's again and then go for his P's again but he has no restrictions

I would ask the RTA when the situation occurs. My friend lost his P plates in court also...similar situation. He wasn't required to return to L's or pass the driving test etc or anything but was required to lodge an exemption request for his two skylines.

He is now able to only drive his own cars (R31 & R32) which were given immediate exemption, but he is no longer able to drive mine for example.

Its quite possibly there is different rulings depending on the reason you lose your license in court. i.e DUI and speeding result in different processes.

if he lost it for 27 months and is on p's again now then he lost it before the 2005 date that they brought these rules in. In which case he'd be able to drive turbo/v8 again, however in our friends case the licence cancelation will be after that date so no turbo or v8.

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????

      Thanks Paul I reached out to Autotainment but they no longer work on JDM cars as the guy who used to do the work moved on and is no longer doing that kind of work. I am talking with Level Up Audio though.
