NO demerit points and $597 is the fine for Unregistered. No need to state the obvious why there is NO leeway for people driving unregistered cars. Lately I have been catching lots of people driving unregistered cars with permit clearly outside the conditions. I think a lot of car yards/sellers don't explain that permits strictly to get car to and from place of repair for RWC and registration.

The funniest I have had is someone delivering pizzas in this situation as car yard told him OK to drive. They (car yard) also put down wrong engine and Vin number on permit too. There are some dodgy people out there for sure!

did you still give him a fine?

Yes I fined him and didn't let him drive further. Every check we do is recorded and If it shows I checked an unregistered car and didn't fine driver I could end up in LOTS of trouble and become civilly liable if I let them drive and end up in collision.

End of the day it's driver's responsibility to know road rules and drive registered vehicle. It's CLEARLY written on the permits what the conditions are. As it's been discussed number of times that unregistered car is NOT covered for TAC insurance etc. I chased up with Vic Roads about the car yard to investigate them further too.

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
