P Plate Laws, Under 25 High Powered Vehicles


Recommended Posts

"High-powered and performance vehicle restrictions apply for the duration of P1 and P2 licence periods for under 25 year olds."

Does this mean that if i'm on my opens and no longer on my p's i can drive a high powered vehicle even tho i am under 25, or that i have to be over 25 to drive one... sorry if this sounds arrogant but i've gone into queensland transport and asked this question 3 times and i've had to different answer everytime... i was hoping someone on here would know for sure???

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

my definition of that would be that it would need an "and" infront of "under 25" if you were not allowed drive a performance car on your open under 25 . but in saying that i have no idea at all about the laws over there

you can drive whatever you like on your full licence. from my understanding the 25year old factor is for those who lost their licence young and are back doing their P's when they 25. That means they can drive the high powered car on their p's.

contact a lawyer or police for the full story. QT I had similar issues with on a different matter. local station will be able to give you an answer.

    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
    • I could see someone trying this to save money on oil changes.
