  1. Haha the joys of new computers aye! Im up early to get ready for work. Training a bunch of school kids to drive in this weather!
  2. SDT sell some one use ones from memory. They seem to be a bit more accurate. Easy way tho. If you are going to drink, just dont drive. Its not worth the risk of the fine, your life, and most importantly someone elses life.
  3. I think her sister is coming in to our work today...
  4. LoL but man they are ripped on all the other stuff! HAHA!
  5. But if it was a parking ticket inspector...
  6. Trick here is your Ps points get refreshed every year x3 year = 12 points in 3 years. Your opens points only get refreshed every 3 years = 12 points 3 years. You are going to drive fast in no matter what you get. Its that simple. Just the sports car your more likely to, and faster, and feel more confident going fast. Dans plan is good, but I still think your going to get picked on. Cops will see skyline, Ps, instantly think its turbo knowing very well you cant have it. They will pull you over, start searching get pissed off they cant find anything, not even a turbo, so they will keep looking to find something small, say wiper rubber too hard, gearknob or something. Thinking a bit more $8k might even get you an echo or something, bit safer airbag etc. I mean your more likely to die in those first 3-5 years of driving... Sorry to go on about this, but I know what I did, and what some others have done, and worked out what I should have done. Which wasnt what I did do...
  7. And what, take the turbo off?
  8. But who the hell is going to enforce it?
  9. With some companys yes it does. Others it means dilly squat all nothing. Trust me, I've just gone through the process not 2 days ago.
  10. Harsh man, harsh. But hey, STILL FUNNY!
  11. RWD, insurance, cops With the new laws do you need P plates too? Just ads to the cops. Im not saying rwd is bad, far far from it. Its tops fun. But when you have little experience its prob not the best thing, and looking at the future. But given the choice of the rb25de line or the ae86, go the skyline man!
  12. I can!!!! PURE GOLD! Suck it up 'the man'!
  13. No one is that stupid are they? I think Im going with Devina this year, her turn to drive at last! So thats a 4 door skyline.
  14. Seriously dude, get some small FWD s-hitbox run it in to the ground. Something like a pulsar or a corolla, something that you cant kill. The insurance will be cheap, fuel will be cheap, its going to be way cheaper to fix. And they are good fun little cars to learn in. An NA skyline is 1 going to have little to no resale value anyway, going to cost a motza to insure, if you crash it or ding it or whatever, which there is a fair chance you will, its going to cost more. Fuel will be more etc. And rwd if you dont know what your doing can get you in to trouble way easier than FWD, its just the nature of the car. That and less chance of cops pulling you over THINKING you have a turboed car, and once your pulled over they start looking for something. In regards to the insureance insu is 100% correct and its what I got caught out on. Im now 22 and just now getting decent insurance quotes after a bit of negotation, and im a freaking defensive driving instructor! They said it made no difference so I keep asking
  15. Oh what, I missed it! But hey SA was good fun. Seems like everything went to plan as it should. Good to see. Hopefully you get quite a few people on this cruise then that then sign up, should be good for the club.
  16. Buy a s-hitbox, something low power fwd good on fuel. Run that sucker in to the ground. Then when your older and wiser and wont wreck it buy a nice car with all the extra money you have saved. One other pointer, on that little s-hitbox get full compo insurance even if the yearly premium is more than the car is worth. It WILL save you thousands by the time you are old enough to own that nice car. Learn from my mistakes, its cheaper and easier.
  17. Well, no cause you didnt wait in the first place hey... So really you would be getting back something you didnt have... See thing is when you drive without a licence you leave yourself very very open. You crash no insurance at all, then comes the court case, as you dont have a licence that gives them pleanty of ammo to really take your arse down nice. You lost it, cop it fair on the chin. You were stupid enough to not realise that the first time, learn from your 2nd mistake.
  18. Wooh! Good to be back in the warmth and proper timezone of Queensland!
  19. I think Im the first up today... Nice long day for me. Up at now, go to airport, go to adelaide, then drive 3.5hours to the york pinisular (Im pretty sure thats it) then start skimming for 5 days! Cyas when I get back!
  20. WOOHOOO ON HOLIDAYS!!!
  21. Could have also been worse man, had you sped up they could have done the same thing just at a higher speed.
  22. Spot on gordo! I had a dodgy tailshaft after my gearbox conversion. You feel it thru the bottom of the seat and in your back. I've also had egged tyres on the car, that you feel, and there is nothing you can do about it. A balance wont pick it up as its not a weight difference in the tyre or wheel. My bet is the tyres.
  23. Statistics wise maybe. But when he took damon hill out in the Aussie GP YEARS ago, when it was the last race of the season. That was it for me. All Damon need to beat Shumacher was finish in the points or something. Then the 'spin' out more recently to try and get the advantage with quali. I dont like the man, I feel he is a VERY poor loser. My thoughs at least. Good driver, I dont know about the best, I think you need the whole package. I dont think the worlds best driver will ever see F1 dude to the money they need to have to get in to it. I think the money is also an issue, but thats another story. And Senna was cut off short. Edit, best F1 season ever were the old days pre aero and advertising. They had some on ABC 2 the other day. Best thing to watch.
  24. And on the way up they pushed 3 skylines off the side to plunge to their deeeeatttth!
