Hi Guys.....

Just wondering if anyone knows or has info to help me. I lost my license in November for DD and get it back at the end of March. When i lost it i was on my Opens for 2 months.

I have been told that when i get my license back i go back on green P's and ahve to wear the green P plates etc...

When i was on my P's orginally i got it before the P'pates rules about drving turbo cars and wearing the plates came in..

Any clarification would be great

You know it's ALOT easier calling QLD transport and getting the 100% correct answer, then reading hear-say on a forum.

If you lost an open license you get an open license back*, unless something has changed - refer to calling QLD transport.

now i'm not 100% sure about this, and you would be best of checking with qld transport, but i do recall a mate of mine having a whinge when he lost his licence a few years back that he wouldn't be able to drive his 180sx when he got his licence back because he had to be on his p's for 6 or 12 months after getting his licence back (despite having been on his opens before he lost his licence) and the vehicle restrictions were going to apply to him (this was when they first brought them in in qld).

yeah i'd check with qld transport cause my mates misses lost her licence and when she got it back she was on green p's.. however i would clarify

Iust spoke with QT and was advised that i go back onto my green P's for 12months.

Cant drive between 11pm-5am

0.00 Alcohol limit

4 points instead of 12

I also asked about being able to drive turbo cars and V8's and they said that you can still drive these vehicles

Also you dont need to display green P plates

afaik as long as turbo is stock in qld you can drive one. You shouldn't go down from Open to P's even if done for DD....

I'm gonna look into that tomorrow

In future just call 13 23 80, it's not a good idea letting everyone on the forum know that you were done for Drink Driving :)

Thats the number i called.... Unfortunately it was a dumb option and poor lack of judgement which will not happen again..

Supposedly now if you loose your license be it by DD or loss of demerit points you go back to a 12 P license even if you had your opens when it was lost

Just called Queensland Transport then;

If you have had your license cancelled, EG: DD, you went to court and it was ruled you get a cancellation for 6months for example, then yes you would go back to P’s for 12 months.

However, if your license was suspended, say from loss of points then no, you do not get put back onto your P’s.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Victory · Posted

      All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.

      It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

      Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
