Ok guys.

I have been asked if I could get opinions from people (P-platers mostly) on the new laws that are being talked about and what you think.

I have about a fortnight (I have been told) and am wanting to get some guys/girls on video talking about your thoughts on all the new P-plate laws that may be comming in.

If you would like to remain anonymous that is fine as the video will be edited and Number plates and faces can be masked...

This is being done for channel Ten to be shown in a half hour special.....

Anyone can come along and have their say but we are looking for some good opinions on this and what you think should happen, not just "the Government is Ghey" :)

I am thinking it would be a good idea to have a meet some where to do this but will have a think about it and post more details soon.

Please reply if you may be interested and share any thoughts that you may have and what you would like to see...

Thanks.

What can you say, driver training is insufficient and restricting P platers from driving high powered cars isn't going to increase their ability. Standard family cars like falcons and commodores can still do high speeds they just don't get there as quickly and don't stop as quickly. Defensive driver training should be compulsory and should be subsidised in some way.

:end rant:

apparently they are planning on banning young drivers from falcons and commies as well!! so its not just the imports!

anyone see this article with the pic of the crashed lancer?

not sure how the government can focus on high performance imports, when its obvious that speed is the problem... drivers need to be educated!! and from a young age... maybe driver ed like in the US? not sure what the young driver fatality stats are like there, but kids definitely need more education... harder tests to actually pass Ps might be another avenue? pass a defensive driver training course... learn how to brake, skid etc before you're allowed onto the roads.

And does anyone else think that rule about banning under 26 year olds from driving hpi cars is silly? it sounds to me like most young driver fatalities will happen around 26! : they're just delaying the problem - not fixing it!

You can read the proposals here, and submit comments (for those that didn't know):

I suggest anyone who cares about this topic (regardless of your view) submits comments. Just make sure its not some "teh g0v su><0rs" type message because that will help no one.

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
