I have always wondered - how strictly is this enforced?

i have let fireworks off after the weekend and nothing happenned to me..

last year i got a massive amount of fireworks from adam and eve.. we let fireworks off on the saturday, sunday and the monday nights and i still have some left.. i think it was 6 bags for around $100 or something like that.

you can also get fireworks from most of the asian supermarkets in dickson but they charge heaps compared to adam and eve

oh i love them, you will have to have a ACT license though, you will see shops pop up every where over the long weekend i love fireworks brings out the child in me :P

The boys are right. There is many places up that way to get them. You can also go to Exhibition park near mitchell. There is a few shops there that will open up soon. You need to have proof of ACT residency in order to get the permit and purchase the fireworks unless your well connected. Just change ur license over at the Gov shopfront and ur set

haha, all the cool kids buy their fireworks out of the back of some guys car. Dodgiest thing i have ever done....

Call the number of a guy I got from a friend, change of location twice before getting in his car to drive to a 'safe' location. Boot opens... Gunpowder heaven. The guy had rockets for craps sake, thats the proper gauge for firework selling, wow your prospective customer with 80cm tall rockets in your boot. That was a fun weekend, only one of our group got arrested haha

but yea, long weekend only. I'd stock up this year, they are getting more and more strict as the years go on, apparently it is illegal for the stores to advertise fireworks this year

    • Ohh even easier.   Go dial up 700rpm on the hand controller. Rip off the TPS plug, wait till the idle drops and then adjust the IACV screw so it's just a tad below the target on the hand controller (say 650rpm), plug the TPS back in and idle will climb back to target. Done.
    • Hey Sleepergm, I love your inlet piping, do u mind sharing who did the work, please? cheers, Ian
    • Yeah, you want the IACV to be running at around 30 "units", variously called "steps" or "duty cycle" depending on the person. That gives it room to go lower if need be and higher ditto.
    • Ah right that makes sense.
    • The RPM is just a target, the ECU will adjust things to try and hit that target but it's by no means guaranteed. If the IACV duty cycle is 0 or something like that and it's actually closing up fully then the idle is as low as it can physically go without reducing ignition timing. The problem can be something like the cold start valve in the IACV not closing fully, worn throttle shaft seals, torn rubber diaphragm in the brake booster allowing unmetered air, etc.
