that was a great cruise for most people. Don called me and told me what happened; I couldn't believe it. I was going to come back and help but I was told to keep going. For the R33s, I have my stock front bumper someone can borrow until their car is back on the road. It's silver, buts better then nothing. Oherwise someone can buy it for $150!! Other then that I really enjoyed it. I wanted to talk to a few more people, but my passengers were being unsociable.

Also, during number 6 the cop felt my tyres for thread. My fronts were bakd due to wheel allignment issues, rears were down to the indicators partly because of allignment issues... But he didt suspect a thing!! Got new tyres 4 days later

Bearing in mind I'm not a bad driver... Here goes. 1: RBT. My mate gets flagged through in his Liberty, I was shitting myself cos I'd had my license for an month and I was scared of cops. Guy looks at my car for a bit and sends me on my way. 2: Pulled over in Malaga at 11:30 at night. Yeah, I understand why, but I wasnt doing anything stupid. No burnouts, speeding, just cruising through with my mate in his car. Breath-tested, car checked out, and asked about "list" on my drivers seat (Map from the Easter Cruise). Let me go 3: This is my favourite, and MARKO_R34GTT can back me up here. For some STUPID reason, I thought it would be cool to try and see how fast my car would go up to. Wound it past 180 before slowing down to 120, then noticed the flashing lights in my mirror. I swore, Marko swore, I said good bye to the car, and then pulled over. Got out and greeted them, before having a nice chat to the detective that got out. He took my details, warned me it was too fast, then send me on my way... I couldnt believe I got off!! 4: Doing 80 in a 60 zone, my friend noticed the cops turning out of a side street, so I slowed down to 55 and went past. As soon as I had gone past the lights their lights came on and pulled me over. The accused me of racing the SSS pulsar next to me (If I was racing, I would have been MUCH further in front!), looked over my car, asked me a heap of questions, couldnt believe my engine bay was so stock, breathalised me, tried the whole good cop/bad cop thing, was half way through writing me a ticket when they asked me why I didnt deserve it. I'm a shocking liar, so I just said that I did deserve it, and that I knew I was speeding. They ripped up the ticket and sent me along... WTF??? 5: 60 in a 50 zone. Got the ticket, but was let off for not having P-plates up. They were lying on the parcel shelf though... my bad!! Chick in the passenger seat just glared at me the whole time for some reason. 6: Cop did a U-turn as they saw me entering Wangara at 9:30 at night. I was going in there because one of the guys at work told me about a place that sold cheap air tools and that was the excuse I gave the cop, who still thought I was going to do burnouts! Telling him I was coming back from drift practice didnt help either... The cop in the drivers seat stayed in the car, but yelled at me "Wheres your P's??" very rudely (too important to get out of the car I'm guessing) so I put my P back up (it had fallen down again) before they selt me on my way. Their excuse was "there are a lot of break-ins around here, and you dont want to have any trouble with them"... Not sure why they drove OUT of Wangara after that... 7: This is the latest one. It was about 11pm last wednesday, coming back from my mates 19th. I was annoyed I couldnt drink, I had Tafe early the next morning, and I was really tired. I sat on 140 all the way down until about 5m away from the Ried Hwy turn off someone flashes their high beams at me. Looking in the mirror ready to swear at the arsehole, I notice the flashing lights... I swore at myself. They clocked me at 135 in a 100 zone, which led to a $700 fine and 5 demerit points. This is the one I was talking about in the WA section. What have I learned? 1: I'm an idiot 2: Don't speed 3: If you dont like being pulled over, stay out of imports and industrial areas at night 4: Show some leg Moderators: Please modify this post if neccessary.

I was waiting for that one Marko... (Dad)

Hey guys, A while back I tried wiring some strobe lights up to my cigarette lighter, accidentally shorted it out twice and blew 2 fuses. I've since replaced them, but I still have no power to the lighter. I've tested the fuse and there seams to be power to both sides, but from there back nothing. I was thinking maybe a short somewhere (that's how the power is flowing through the fuse) but I can't follow the wires through maze behind the dash. I'm not the best when it comes to electronics, Being an apprentice mechanic means I'm better with a spanner then a multimeter!! Any help woud be appreciated Thanks, Rhys

Lol, you've dragging up a pretty old thread mate. I know the thread starter has most likely solved the issue by now, but one problem I can see with taking out the boot lock and the wire release, what if you got a flat battery? I know the chances of running down tv battery that much is very unlikely, but it is possible. And being an R33, the battery is in the boot. So that's why i'd stay clear of something like that. Just my 2c

Mines non-turbo, no one would want to hijack me Otherise just give them the keys, I need a good excuse for a new car!

I would thought there were HEAPS of purple S13s with RB20s in them... Obviously I was wrong

I'm looking for one of these!

OMG YOU HIJACKED MY THREAD!! I'll be there, come up and say hello. My car is the silver R33 with white wheels, 4 wheel studs (), and M-Spec kit!

Only 5 points left and I'm a good driver!! If anyone wants to know exactly what happened PM me, but I'm not sure if I can publicly discuss it. Brendan, I'm on my green Ps now man, I'm a big boy now Dan, NAs aren't as slow as you think. I can keep up with a GTSt pretty easily, as long as they don't hit boost jks Thanks god I'm not losing my license! Doesn't help me convince mum I need a turbo tho

Thats what I thought. Thanks Eugene, thats a huge relief!

I'll take your car if you want... NUR's gotta reprezent!! Just putting it out there...

Hey guys, Just got done for speeding, $700 and 5 demerit points. Won't go into details, but it is my fault and I deserve it. However, my mate says that if you were to lose 4 demerit points or more at one time while on your Ps, you lose your license for so long. Does anyone know if this is correct? I couldnt find any details on the DPI website. Sounds like something the government would do, another stupid law. Lets hope he's wrong! Cheers Rhys

are u ok Trent? The 32R written off?

Was a great cruise!! Nice work

Sounds good!! I'll be there

I'll be there. Got a few mates coming as well

I've just ordered [NA 33 WA] on slimline. Hope that goes through!!

Pity about the sticker, but he was an idiot for driving without tail lights or dash lights (I have driven without dash lights... Not cool!!) Nice car though. What's the sticker on the rear window? I noticed they blured out everything but the OVABOOST sticker!

I've worked it all out now, it's pretty easy. Thanks for your help Chris

Anyone??? *Sits alone in corner*

Hey guys, I need a wiring diagram for my Clarion DB235 ASAP!! I'm swapping it with my mate's high end Alpine head unit because he's stripping the stereo from his car to sell it. I'm swapping them around tomorrow, so I need the diagram ASAP!! Any info would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Rhys

It would only take 3 hours though Um... Geraldton is up

Too many people skip that step, good work! You can never have too much attention to detail!
