just under 5 months til i can kiss these suckers goodbye *does a little dance, woohooo!!*

you know this will confuse the shit out of the Po'Po

coz there will still be kids on green p's with turbo restrictions etc etc and kids who arent... the smart thing would have been to bring all the rules and new plates in at once so it was a simple;

green p's - basically no rules

red p's - your stuffed if i see you with any passengers or a snail or past midnight lol!

the beauty of living in queensland and getting your license 3 months before the p plater laws come in to order. i dont hav eto wear p plates, i can drive any car i want and have any age of people in my car at any time of day or night its swwweeet.

but i think i could have dealed with the laws for a year or two

I don't see what the big problem is? Is it just the colour is no longer red so everyone's getting upset? hahaha The rules you picked up when you got your licences still apply, no other restrictions apply unless you've lost your licence altogether.

I see having green Ps instead of the reds when they come in can only be better for us. People with the reds will draw the attention away from us because they're less experienced and hopefully the police will pick on them more. :(

VicRoads should've made things a little more clear though. A lot of people are taking this 'you've now got green P plates' thing all wrong. They think they've got new restrictions etc.

Whered you get them from?

I got my p's like 2 months ago and like 2 weeks ago I got this letter about new laws to do with L plates, nothing about P-plates lol

Yeah they're swapping the colours to match NSW, they have more restrictions on red and less on green...

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.

      Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?

      By silviaz · Posted

      Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned?

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      That's the thing, they still add it and it makes fuel cheaper, implying adding 10% of it drops the cost of 91 by what, 5c a liter? I remember when it was barely half the price of 98. Because you know, 85% of what is in the fuel is way cheaper than 91 fuel is by volume.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Auto electricians that do repairs on automotive AC systems can source service kits. I don't know where they actually source them. I do know that there is one available for the R34 comp that I would need it for. If you have to pay someone to dismantle, clean and do needed repairs and fit kit contents, then you'd probably end up spending a good fraction of the cost of a new one. I would not be paying for that, because I would be doing it myself. My mechanic (bro-in-law) will happily source what is needed. Back in the day (like in the 80s and 90s), rebuilding an AC compressor was the standard approach, same as for starter motors, alternators, etc, because new replacements were v. expensive. After the China manufacturing boom and the rise of the disposable approach to everything, people just started throwing broken/worn stuff away and not rebuilding things.
