i was just flicking through the demerit points scheme and found the fines for driving a high powered vehicle on your p's. 3 points and $225.

the same fine also applies to breaking the late night law and the peer passenger law.

the can be found on page 14 of this

http://www.transport.qld.gov.au/resources/...nt_offences.pdf

so don't say you haven't been warned

i keep hearing new stories about how people plan to beat the system. haven't heard one that sounds like it will work yet.

so glad i'm not on my p's, and as of next week i won't be in the under 25 bracket either. i will be in the 25 AND under bracket though.

*remembers the good old days where driving on your L's unaccompanied would net at worst a $30 fine, no points and a clip round the ear by the local plod for being a scallywag*

hahhahhahaha yeah i do i must be starting to get old :) however there is one good thing about being in the 25+'s age, insurance is much cheaper :P

I see more commodores trying to drift in the wey with P plates now. And the other laws are having negative effects.

Prices of driving instructors have gone up along with log book hours being needed.... So many more parents are teaching their kids to drive, this scares the hell out of me because it's those parents who generally drive like tards as it stands.

And people having a p plate doesn't help matters, all I see is people revving them up at lights because they know if the p plater gets caught they are f**ked. It's bad enough when people do stupid shit around L plates, but around P platers, they are still newbie and worse off because they are alone.

I dont understand the new system and I guess I dont need too...

But imagine the ultimate sleeper, a skyline with P plates that looks like an NA but has like 1000hp :(

People will see the P plate and go, hahah your under 150kw (what ever the limit is) and then they get blown away, would be funny to see... :)

Maby we should wear P plates at the drags just for fun... Or L plates...

I think the fine is $35 now. Its not as high as $120.

*edit#2, we were way off...

"Penalties for displaying L-plates when not a learner driver

The driver will be fined A$10. However, accredited driver trainers and rider trainers may continue to display L-plates on their vehicle after they have finished giving driver training."

*edit, the $120 is for not displaying the L plates.

" All learner licence holders must currently display an L plate on the front and rear of the vehicle

or cop a $120 fine."

i only drove once on my L's without someone else in the car. it wasn't far. anyone that knows gympie will know the car yard at the first set of lights when you come into town near maccas and pizza hut. well my mum worked in the office at the car yard and i was waiting for her to finish work one day and i got hungry so i drove from the carpark out the back to maccas and back. all of about 200m of illegal driving.

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
