I would have thought that with a person in the car and the engine running (was it?), you'd have been standing rather than double parked... probably doesn't make a difference though

If you decide to contest this, you may very well get off.

There's the case where a person got booked for double-parking whilst contending with a bee + bee-sting > Got Off

There's the case of a Harley Rider who stopped for a red light behind a bus, but then rear-ended it due to a climax > Got Off

Then I got off with a caution after writing a letter saying that I had overstayed the 2Hr limit because I was consulted by the wife of an aircraft accident victim where her husband was killed.

Now if you bring the puke in a bag to court or write a letter quickly, you might get off.

But even if you win via a day in court it may now be worth the time or the money. This is called a 'Phyrric Victory' :down: It !

I can't feel sorry for him here. If you know the area and I do as I work there there is a Major problem with people "Double Parking" along Kingsway. Everytime I drive through there we tell at least 3-4 people double parked to move along as the whole street practically comes to standstill due to this.

I have only issued a couple of fines for this as the people were out of the car collecting their take away. Even had one person in unregistered car doing this. I was nice and warned him for double parking as he got a $584 fine for unregistered instead.

...not to mention that double-parking can be a catalyst that leads to an accident - not just an annoyance imho

Yay, i've just paid the fine. Now i can get it off my chest, and ride my bicycle more.

And i dont think it was worth contesting anyway. I'm so busy in school these days. Foundation isn't hard, just tedious.

      Is this saveable r32 gtr seat

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Yep that's a superb price and ther is no way you will over capitalise on you investment.  As to the bracket, again just use the passenger side seat  bracket ( obviously reversed ) as a sample to reshape it and in this case, TIG it back together.

      RB20 and 25 NEO differences

      I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)

      Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage

      Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.
