The police went light on him

45kph over is 9 months suspension of licence plus a $1559 fine

71kph over should be loss of licence for 18 months - 2 years with $2005 fine(the largest standard speed ticket) double demerits should have seen him loose his licence car and a wad of cash he must have hit on the copper

but you shouldnt blame the inexperianced driver blame the car like its got a mind of its own(sarcasm)

what a tool

Yes very very bad publicity. But its just the f**kin media grabbing onto a story and runing with it! "Skyline" is a buzz word around the traps at the moment and all we can do is hold on and last out the ride! The truckies came under the same heat when they were all found to have modified there speed limiters!

We all might get angry when reading this but we have all broken the speed limit be4 and have all had brain explosions and done something like he did!

Side note: I had three other cars blow their horns at me in the last couple of days for doing absolutely nothing! I am serious, I have been abused by others because of the car I am in! We are definetly in the spotlight!

bah.. ppl wont learn just from seeing it happen to others, it usually takes some kind of incident weather it be a fine or something for it to hit home.

but yeah we are only jsut seeing the skyline / p plater hype - i was driving home for christmas and there was a sign somewhere between hexham and port mac that said they had booked 1700 ppl in one week for speeding. yeah not all of em will be 70 km over the limit but im sure some of them would have been up there.

the wost ppl are in dumb asses who beep their horns at skylines and p platers cuase they heard we are evil from the smart people on 'a current affair' that program should be banned from TV.

sometimes the older drivers are the worst, the ones where they will diss a young driver and then be all like, yeah but its ok for me ! ive been driving for 6000 years... whatever

bah.. well thats enough sterotypes out of me.. this shit will all blowover then they find another fat story they can milk some ratings out of..

:Bang:  

Also this comment was the most stupid thing I have ever seen in my life. I can only hope you were joking???

its not as stupid as it sounds ... think ... if P platers wasn't allowed to drive high powered cars then there wouldn't be any problem here would there?

I dont think being a P-plater is the issue to be honest. Im sure a lot of P-plate drivers do the right thing regardless of the car they are in whether it have 50 hp or 150

Anyone, of any age, in any car, can & will speed IF THEY FEEL THE NEED TO.

It just so happens that modified cars stand out, therefor people will clearly remember a modified car doing 80kms in a 60kms zone over a family sedan doing the same.

Its just how it is unfortunatly.

and what is this magical thing that happens once you get off your P's that means you can drive a hi-po car? does some fairy visit you the night before you get your full license and grant you special powers to be able to drive a hi-po car?

i was done about 2 years ago doing 125kms in an 80zone (i was doing 150 but saw the cop car and slammed on the brakes) was i in a high powered skyline? NO! i was in a stock as a rock 96 lancer, absolutely gutless car that was easily capeable of hitting 150kms in a heartbeat. im not condoning what i did by any means, but get over yoursleves by blaming the car! i was speeding because i could and felt like it, yes it was dumb, but it wanted to see how hard i could push my car on a big open (car free) road at midnight, to tell you the truth i dont have that desire since owning my R33, i know its fast, i know its easily capeable of reaching 200kms and fact is i dont want to find out how quickly it will reach it. if anything since owning my line im less tempted to excessively speed.

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
