being a P plater the rules are still rather fresh.. You have since progressed to your greens which means the fine was not finalised if infact u were pinged (RTA is notified of infringments as they are processed by police etc).. So you will be keeping your licence because they would of informed you at the test that u had a outstanding offence that has not been served..

If you were pinged for less then 5 I doubt it would go through as they have a 10% margin for error. I have a friend who is a cop and thats what he told me. OR u can play the innacurate speedo crapola if u can still do that??

Hope that helps put your mind at ease.. If you dont recieve anything over the next 2 weeks then your safe for sure.

Cheers,

David

^^ Lol lucky birdman

Last time i did the innacurate speedo thing it failed...even with dyno proof and a stat dec letter...but it did delay the fine process for about 2 years :D

I had an offence on my red p's that carried over onto my greens a few years ago. I didnt get the running out of points suspension but i did get the 3 month 30-45 one.

I'd say youre gonna get the suspension unless you were under the 10% margin of error.

Thanks for the replies it seems we are thinking along the same lines if i got snapped it looks like a suspension if i do get the fine i can ask a few people to take the point for me

it just seems a bit harsh if i get done for 5 ks over and loose my licence but thats life i guess lol.

Thanks again for your input.

My sister got done and was going to lose her license I think she took it to court because that would delay it enough that she'd get some points back so you may be right now that you're on your greens. And if you have 4 demerits I thought you could still drive until you got booked again i.e you really have to lose 5 points to be disqualified?

Accumulate 4 demerits on reds and you're out.

Also, the 10% thing is a crock of shit.

Most HWP will give around 10KM/H on 70+km/h zones, but they don't have to.

ADRs are written such that the 10% is no longer +/- but it is now that the speedo can only read 10% higher... IE, you're travelling at 100KM/H, speedo can read from 100 - 110KM/H

years ago it used to be able to read from 90 - 110KM/H... Not any more.

If you were only 5 over, you're probably safe, I've been through most of the cameras in WGong 5 over and never been done.

"If" you do get done it may be on your greens. I'm only saying this because a bloke I know got done for dui on his p's and the cops said to him if you get your full licence you may get less for being on your blacks...

All else fails ring rta...

Actually the speedo only needs to be accurate within 10% to 40 km/h to meet ADR's. Above 40km/h and its what the manufacturer specifies.

.

You used to get 4 points on your red p's now you get 3, so to be disqualified you need 4 points, on the old system that meant 5 points to be disqualified from driving.

      HyperGear vs Pulsar Turbo RB25DET

      By Eric0 · Posted

      UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their reliability is proven, performance can be predictable, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!

      Probolt

      By Duncan · Posted

      I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end

      R34 GTT Battery Relocation To Trunk

      By Beanie · Posted

      I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.

      R34 GTT Battery Relocation To Trunk

      By Beanie · Posted

      Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
