u get raped..  

and the cop waves his hands in the air as he rides your ass.. with a "Victoria is the best state in australia to drive"

:whip: :);)

You Vic's seem to get it harsh.

But, seriously I read that u guys get a fine, thats provided you havent broken any other infringements at the time. Just speculating, but could they also put you on a curfew for breaching the power limit rule?

Here in SA its much more lenient in regards to fines & demerit points (except with defects), & we dont have that power to weight limit rule for 'P' platers.

And if hes really lucky the cop will also be fisting steve bracks ass hole while he collects you $$ for driving an illegal car.

All in all it will be an experience to tell your grandkids about.

my worry wouldn't be what can happen if you get busted

If I was a P plater in that position I would be more worried about how the insurance companies would deal with any claim if you cause or are involved in a accident, you could find it used as an easy out for them on settling the claim.

a few hundred dollar fine is easier to deal with than having someone damage ur pride and joy and you having no comeback

I don’t understand how insurance companies can take money from P-platers knowing fully that the driver is on their P’s and then not paying out when needed. That’s theft in broad daylight.

I got pulled over 2 weeks ago driving out of my street at 10am for a random check (random my arse). The cop was driving on the other side of the road then did a U-turn. They breath tested me and then, “Pop your hood.” He was then questioning if I can drive the can on my P’s. He wasn’t sure so that was the end of that.

Paradizzle, I’m from the west side. As for the insurance thing, I haven’t heard of it happening to anyone YET although when you sign up to an insurance company, they ask you for all your mods and if they are legal. So, if it’s not legal for P-platers to drive high powered vehicles, I would assume that they would not cover you. They find loop holes in everything.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
