Yeah. if ur licence is suspended, dont drive. This will cost u bigtime now ;\

As for a lawyer, check out Matthew Mitchell lawyers on Prospect Road, they do auto cases quite a lot.

-D

first of all- the correct spelling of the words are 'court', 'summons', 'licence' and 'magistrates'

secondly- you have absolutely no chance of not getting your suspension extended. good luck learning the lesson with 27 months worth of catching the bus

..... any help or suggestions would be so much appreciated!

As said above, it is clear if you are still driving while disqualified, you haven't learnt your lesson from the 1st disqualification - so hopefully they take your license for good. You may be looking at jail time, but knowing the pathetically weak justice system in SA I wouldn't be surprised what little punishment you get. I just can't believe anyone would be stupid enough to drive whilst disqualified - it smacks of complete disrespect for the law, and other people - given you would have no valid insurance, and worse still, no valid 3rd party person insurance - which meant if you caused an accident and injured someone, they would get no compensation for medical costs/injury/suffering.

go easy guys, shit happens...

Mark, its a must to be lawyered up for these situations. Driving whilst disqualified is a criminal offence.... i learnt... got thrown in the fkn watchhouse for the same thing, and later down the track after the court biz finished up, the fine was ridiculous. I was lucky they didnt give me a suspended sentence to prison... my record aint too flash, and neither is yours by the looks of it.

Just hope you got the coin and are ready to fork out for a trust account with a lawyer, which can be quite a hefty amount depending on who you choose to represent ya.

I reccomend Nick Vadasz on Currie St.

Good luck mate

thanks for your comments. ive heard it all before and just to clarify i diddnt drive on a regular basis it was a once off...... just after i had my ecu fitted i wanted to make sure thigs were ok it wasnt around the block but it wasnt over 5 blocks away either... yes i f**ked up and yes i have to deal with it but i do respect the law and other people. i return wallets/ phones if i find them and always try to do the right thing.... and i know most are going to say you disrespected the law by driving... well its not like i was one of the hundreds that drive tow ork knowing they are suspended i just took my car thru the local back streets to make sure it was running ok..... after a 9 months of being f**ked and doing the right thing i just wanted to make sure my car was running ok.

but for those that have placed up valid help i sincerely appreciate it

many thanks

ok sorry Mark I came off a bit harsh. Sounds like you were not habitually doing it like tons of disqualified retards do - sounds like you got a little unlucky. Hope it turns out ok for you.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
