Infringement Notice: “Drive high powered vehicle”

Penalty: $234

Points: 3

Location: Knox- stay away from here! Lesson for all i hope

My question is this possible for a green P-plater? And does anyone have the law around this.

Story:

Decided to remove this contents as this is a open public forum and no doubt the police reguarly search it, still have respect to police although words can't describe how pissed off i am! happy to pm anyone that want the full story but honestly very disappionted with the above and the circumstance and dialog that was exchanged. for my defence i was in no way shape or form was "a typical p-plater hoon in a skyline" or rude and was complement seriously about my good attitude

yeah i got done twice. first time fine and 3 demerit points, second time 10days before i got off my p's. he was nice enough to only fine me and not take points as i would've lost my license. would've preferred not to drive the car, but being the only car i have, had no choice.

it sucks, but that's the law. green p's is still under power-to-weight ratio. its there to save lives lost, especially inexperienced drivers in control of high-powered vehicles.

you're able to register the car under your name, just not able to drive the car till you're off your p's

I know how upset you are...however, he was doing his job. Doesn't matter in which city or town you are in... If you drive a high powered car on your P's then you're breaking the law. Sell your Skyline or don't drive it until you're off your P's.

Do you drive a turbocharged car on your P's? Yes.

Is it currently illegal (new system) to drive a turbocharged car on your P's? Yes.

Sorry, you are driving illegal, it is not ridiculous.

Or

Are you on your Ps under the old system - illegal (old system) to drive a car over 125kw/tonne limit on yours P's? Yes.

Is a R33 GTS-T under the old system, OVER the power to weight limit? Yes.

Sorry, you are driving illegal, it is not ridiculous.

Either way, R33 GTS-t's are illegal. Were illegal, and probably will forever be - da da daaaa... Illegal

So to be... straight... your story means nothing.

Fact: You were driving illegally.

Yes this sounds harsh, and it is, but these threads come up every couple of months from people either to ignorant to the law, or just plain pretending the law does not apply to them.

Time to accept it and move on.

As you'll now notice, you have lost 3 points. Get busted once more - bye bye licence. Time for a new car i think.

As with past threads - this will go nowhere fast.

Locked.

      I'd say the easiest way is, pick up a extended and baffled sump with fittings already welded on. Here is an example, it has 3 x -10 fittings  https://shop.maatouksracing.com.au/products/rb-extended-and-baffled-sump

      hey OP can you remind me what the actual question was, I got sidetracked at V12. Do you have an turbo oil return leak and an unidentified coolant leak? The factory oil returns are terrible design; short, rubber and expensive to replace. They are very common to fail and a pain to replace because they are so short. Still, they are available new if you want to replace both last time I checked. For the coolant leak, any competent mechanic should be able to do a pressure test; that should show up where the leak is. It is almost certainly one of the billion 30 year old rubber lines which are now brittle as hell, you engine will be fine.

      Shifting questions

      By dbm7 · Posted

      From the OP's description, sounds to me like the TCU is in 'limp home' mode --- that is, no actuation power to shift solenoids, and the EPC valve is shut (full line pressure). This effectively sticks the box in 3rd gear, with as much line pressure as possible, to try hold the high clutch clamped shut....and so you get woeful acceleration and don't feel any shifts (because they're not happening). If you don't have Consult or some other scanner to interrogate the TCU itself, you can test with a multimeter to see if it's in limp home mode....ie; stick it in D with engine at idle (hold vehicle with hand/foot brake), and measure the voltage at the TCU feeding shift solenoids A & B -- both should be ON (battery voltage). If they are energized at the TCU, you can unplug the harness from the TCU, and check resistance down through the wiring to the solenoids themselves -- you should see about 20ohms on each coil --- if you do, you can presume the wiring to shift solenoids is OK -- if both measure open circuit, you have to check intermediate connectors in the loom down to the gearbox (and the gearbox connector itself), and check the shift solenoid resistance at the gearbox connector itself --- if the shift solenoids test open circuit here, problem is in the box (ether the solenoids or wiring to them is bad). If you get no voltage at TCU connector for the shift solenoids (and the solenoids/wiring test OK), check powers/grounds to the TCU itself --- if they're ok, it suggests the TCU is the culprit (and you'd need to interrogate it if possible, to find out why it's behaving badly)...

      Honestly, for a daily I would gladly rock a Camry. The more disposable the better. People drive horribly out here and road conditions are awful.
