Vin it takes anywhere between two days to six months.... they're pretty quick on the ball though...

FYI - i have HEARD.... this is just what i've HEARD... from someone i live and hold very close to my heart of hearts that worked on a project with the department of transport... i've heard that the way that our currect system is run... that when you pay the department of transport your fine...

...the department of transport must complete your financial transaction in order for it to be processed by police to deduct your points...

in short if your fine is $110.... you send a cheque / BPAY $110.50c

as it's 50c over... the transaction is registered in dept of transport as "complete pending refund"

to take back the 50c - they must write you a cheque for 50c... until you clear that 50c, the transaction remains incmplete and cannot be handed over to police to demerit your driving record.

so the transaction remains forever in the hands of the dept of transport..

and you can not lose demerit points because you're passively blocking the next step in the process...

Thanks, Rowan.

FYI, I think you've been watching too much "Fast and Furious". :P

haha yes i have tried it and no it doesnt work they send the cheque back to you with the full amount and ask you to amend it and in the mean time adding a $15 surcharge for late fees

Smart!

Oh well, for the mean time, I still have my points in full.

yep they are smarter than most people think

sept this dude that stopped in his grand cherokee at canninghwy/risely street intersection. Stayed put for about 20 seconds and then decided to give himself a ticket by moving into the intersection on a red light and got flashed doing 5 km p/h LOL. 6 points for him.

Seriously??

The dumbest driver of the century goes to him then. :spank:

    • What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?    
    • It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup 
    • Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.
    • Thats what ive been doing. Ive got a million questions but i know theyve probably all been answered before at some stage. Todays research included nismo heritage seat covers, s3 projector headlight retrofits and how to remove/paint the rocker covers
