While I dont know this for sure, an old workmate told me he had an issue with P plates which he put to the police to find out what the case was.

Legally its stated as P plates have to be clearly viewable on the outside of the vechile. So with tinted windows, you really arent supposed to have them on the inside of the car at all. Especially how some pople hide them in corners and so forth. So technically if you have tinted windows or read visors, etc you should display it outside the vechile.

PS: Go to Sydney, they are all outside the cars :D

Yeah, wtf is up with that?

Stick it on the fkn window you tool, how hard is it?

It's because sometimes the P plates are visible when placed inside the car. Either the windows are too tinted, or the angle of the rear window is too slanted. The poh-leese pulled me up in my 33 complaining about that, and told me glue one to my rear bar... It never happened lol.

Not from Melbourne, but my hated car lists are:

Excel (especially ones where people spend money to riced them up, might as well just throw all that $ done the toilet).

Civic (the old hatch model, look like a ugly bug, riced up ones just makes me hate them more).

BMW 318 (Got a bunch of family friends who buys a 2nd hand one & thinks they are in the rich group coz they drive a BMW; the cars that doctors drive... hello its a 318! the bottom of the 3's range! come back & show off when you have at least bought a 335, M3 or 760).

Jazz (just don't like it)

+1 riced up lancers

+1 camrys driven by 1.4m blind asian women thinking 60 means 6

+1 318s....now i really hate these....the worst thing is that those guys think theyre fast...pwoah i wana get my mums magna out and just rape one of those fux....:) angry :)

Anything made by SsangYong!!!!!

Dirtiest cars ever.

haha. Two girls from my high school bought these shit 80s 318is for that exact reason; they thought they made them look classy. The pieces of shit broke down so often and had to get towed holding up the whole rest of the car park from going home.

N/A S13s with chromies and the like give me the shits. Was at my friend's panel shop, and a guy with one came in asking for a 'body kit.' My friend said sure, it'll be blah blah to fit it if you supply one. And he goes can't you supply one? My friend asks the guy what kind of kit he wants (Vertex, GP Sport, etc) and the guy goes on to say "I just want a kit. The guy around the corner said he'd give me a body kit painted for $1000"

Screw you Patrick - I regularly have lights on during the day. Company policy :blink:

Makes people look at the cars more.

so..

2 light bulbs, say 55W each = 110W.

say you do 20000km per year, at an average speed of 45km/h..

say you drive during the day 70% of the time..

20000 / 45 = 444 driving hours/year

444 * 0.70 = 311 day time driving hours/year

311 * 110 = 34KWh day time lighting energy/year

1 litre of fuel ~ 16KWh of chemical energy

assume 25% efficiency for a combustion engine, and 70% for an alternator, which means

16 * 0.25 * 0.70 = 2.8KWh of energy from 1 litre of fuel

34 / 2.8 = 12 litres of fuel per year for lighting during the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's $18!!!!!!

And we haven't even considered the cost of changing light bulbs!!!

What about the effect on the environment!!!

shame on you! :)

    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25 The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing 
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
