what a moron :D lol at jimbo.  

a year doesn't seem right. i wonder what the penalty is for driving without a licence, without doing 200k?

driving without a licence is $500

50k's over is $460 (cant remember exactly but its mid 400) and 12months

and she only got fined $1000 and 12months

sounds like she only got charged with doing 50over

You guys sound like starting a vigilante witchhunt heh.

This is normal response to such an event on SAU. We consider ourselves at the mature end of car enthusiasts, and most of us know to save such speeds for the race track.

Skylines Australia does not condone breaking the law on public roads.

[/end official press release]

ok im confused was it a r32 gtr or a 300zx??

hopefully it was a zed and not a skyline so ppl dont go "bloody people and their imports, lets get em" if thats how non import drivers ands cops think....

anyway, thank god no one was hurt, and dont people say thats women are meant to be smarter...

When did the media get anything right?

I remember when some guy in a R31 stacked it up here and the paper was showing specs of the R32 GTR and how "evil" they are.

I remember this Telegraph picture clearly... some guy of 'Swedish' extraction stacked and R31 with Auscar three spoke rims wipes out a pole and somehow it turns into a GT-R/WRX turbo slagging fest.

Why is an L plater driving a 300hp car be it Skyline or ZX?

T.

That's what I was thinking, who's car was it??? and why would they let this chick drive it, especially without them (the owner) in it?

L-platers shouldn't be driving cars like that, just think back about a month to that chick who lost it in her dad's HSV and killed herself and most of her family.

Can't they just do it in a bodgy old commo or gemi or something, it would probably attract less attention too..

*sigh* No matter how much we debate the situation fellas.... there will always be stupid people out there. Sure we can say all we want about what happened, but its already happened. It was stupid on behalf of the driver (!@#@!@!$@!#:):cuss:$!@#@!#@!#@!#) but look at it this way, least the roads will be less one stupid person for 12 months. You've got to admire the way the media likes to twist and turn facts and fiction to the point where the original event is no longer being the issue at hand.... almost like nailing water still.

After finding out on Sunday just how easy it is to crash a Skyline - I can say they certainly are ****ing idiots. I've experienced how bad it is to lose control at just over 80km/h - at 200+ there'd be huge trouble...

it looked like a 300 zx to me, but hey i might be wrong.   they showed a pic on the news last nite, and i swore it was zed.

Yes. Channel 10 did show a Black 300zx last night on TV. :headspin:

I think the L plater's should have power restrictions as well as harsher penalties. What this girl has done was wrong and she should have been punished for it, severely i say, as an example to all.

This gives every skyline driver a bad name and we are already targets for police which is so annoying. I have a very stock R34 and still get pulled over for a check.

I agree with the power laws for younger drivers, or at least engine capacity, like what we have for motor bikes in NZ.

The thing is though, she obviously didnt have enough regard for the law in the first place, as she was driving a car un-supervised, obvioulsy not hers, with a passenger and twice the legal limit. Somehow i doubt that if the car had to much HP for her experince at the time she did this, she would have been phased at all. She obviously acheived what she set out to do, another temporary citizen on the roads :headspin:

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
