So if we have 12 now, when the laws come in it'll automatically drop down to 4? Or only if you get your P's after the laws come in? Cos how many people have less then 8 demerit points left? If that happens, so many people would unfairly lose their license!

I'm sure I read somewhere a few months ago that if/when they bring this change in if you have less than 12 points you will still have 4. They won't be able to take people's licences over it. I'll try find it.

When you get pulled over DON'T ADMIT ANYTHING!

Thats how you get into trouble for shit you didn't do.

When I was on my P's with my Torana, Cops used to harass me all the time accusing me of things a I definitely didn't do, They would yell, threaten and swear at me trying to get my to admit to doing burnouts/speeding.

Even when I did do something wrong, like driving at 130km per hr on the brand hwy going to Geraldton in my pulsar. They pulled me over, breathized me and asked if I knew how fast I was going. I said I knew but didn't admit to speeding. He then said we clocked you at 130kmph, I shrugged and didn't say anything. after that he just let me go...

On that note, Don't break the law, its bad. lul

yep the news is getting it wrong agian.

was a 180sx, P Plater, Passenger (16year old girl) died.

then on Friday night, commodore lost it at high speeds, hitting a pole, chopped it in half and throwing a girl in the back seat into on coming traffic (A Subaru WRX) which chopped of her leg.

Crazy weekend I tell yah..

^^^ haha I agree..

But WA is so far behind from Eastern states, they've already got all the bans on P Platers on what they can drive. yet over here hasnt followed

R.I.P to the girl

Edited by viet_boi

yeah true, but just feel sorry for the girl..its always the passenger that dies..

seen to many similiar shit on tv about a P plater guy speeding, crash, passenger (Girl) die.....guys showing off i guess?

2L, 4 cylinder engines don't sound to powerful. Was the Commodore a V8? Cos no matter how powerful a car is, you can do something stupid and kill yourself with it. Even a Charade...

I was just talking to my dad about this and agree completely. You're going to be able to go at high speeds and do stupid things in any car. It's down to the driver being smart enough to realise what they are capable of doing safely.

I've driven my mum's car (1.6L Protege) at over 40km/h over the limit without even noticing. Then I'll drive my car (2.5L Non-turbo R33) at just over the limit, but I've driven a few turbo cars, and I keep it at the limit. Not sure how it works, but the more powerful the car, the slower you drive. If that makes sense?

Didn't they say something like it's had $6,000 worth of engine mods, converted to supercharger or something.

Either way, does anyone remember the number to vote 'no' on the p plater performance ban, just so all the mums watching the tv don't win by default.

P plate performance ban could be anything :| half the camrys on the road are quicker than the NA skylines and silvias lol, blah 5 star rating, it wouldnt happen if there was actually suspension in place, that said, sad incident though and that driver is going to have to live with it. The other guy in the WRX wont be able to drive for sometime now

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
