hey all.

i need some help.

i got done for going around a corner and my back wheels made abit of noise.

it was not a drift it was not a burnout. and i did not mean to do it. and i was with about 6 other skylines and they let it go alot harder then i did. but i was the first car.now my problem is i am on my red p`s but i dont get them back till may for speeding. now if i just pay the $400 fine and take to points i will lose them again.

i got done for no p`s plates cos my dad was driving my car and i forgot to put em back so that was 2 points and a 15+ speeding fine made me lose my p`s for 6 months... oh well

so can anyone help me on what you think i should do.

any info or thorghts would be great

cheers

so you weren't licensed at the time? you'll probably also be picked up for driving while disqualified when it goes through.. If you take it to court in that situation you have absolutely no hope.

you're at least going to lose it for 12 months if you were already disqualified I'd say.. they'll throw the book at you because you're young so you're basically screwed.

no driving for you for a looong time.

We seem to be reading stories like this every other week and its always claimed that the police have got it all wrong. I have witnessed your car and driving before not to mention the group of cars you roll with and frankly im not surprised.

yeah i know but what i had a friend do was take the matter to court and then when the date rocked up he had his green p`s so he rocked up and payed the fine.

i am happy to pay the fine and everything as long as i do it after i get my green p`s as i get them on may 17th.

is there anyway to delay the charge date?? unless i take it to court??

so you told your friend to take the shit for u? and u paid the fine?

umm you do know that is a criminal offense that is punishable by imprisonment dont you?

That's perverting the course of justice which would fu*k u up even harder..

dats not a good thing to do..just cope the fine, cope the ban rather then coping a criminal record

you can keep adjourning the case I think indefinitely.. turn up, say "I want to adjourn because xx" and it will be put a month or two in the future. This way you can delay the fine and/or puishment, and let the other ones go through first ;)

May help!

Yeah that's what you do. First time say you only just went to see a lawyer but that he couldn't be there at such short notice, second time say the lawyer is looking after your case and he told you to plead not guilty and get a date that suits him; have some dates handy a few months into the future, after that you'd better actually have a lawyer cos they wont be happy to adjourn again.

So let me get this straight, you were driving a red supra and your friend had green pee...your dad was driving your car and someone let go ...you won't be able to speed again until may unless you pay the fine now and then you won't be able to speed for another 6 months...you lost your p's somewhere too.

I know the answer, you didn't lose your p's they were on the car your dad wasn't driving the whole time. If you have to go to court get your friend to drive you as he knows the way already.

Dude ur dad has a supra and u've got a skyline? Cool Family! What does ur mom drive?

Well if u want to drag the case u can do what others have mentioned...given how slow the govenment works it should be too difficult to drag it till may.

Thats surprising though...i would imagine that even if the case is heard after may, they should consider the status of your licence at the time of offence, not at the time of the hearing.

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
