if you dont tell them they wont know as long as your mail is forwarded to you from qld, legally you have 3 mths to change your address and therefore your licience, if you dont get pulled over twice by the same cop in that time you should be ok.

You'll find what you need to know at VicRoads info for interstate drivers

if you dont get pulled over twice by the same cop in that time you should be ok.

Police have this amazing thing called technology.

They use it to keep a record of licence & vehicle checks.

The first time you get pulled over, licence details will be taken.

They will ask for your address.

They will ask how long you've been in the state.

Regardless of who pulls you over next, they will have all the details of your previous contact.

You can drive anywhere you like for as long as you like but you must live in QLD .

If you move to another state to live you must get a licence there as soon as practicable but within 3 months .

Nothing to stop you working in VIC and living in QLD for as long as you like !!

Someone told me the situation may be different cause im with the military and i have to move around alot neways and i wont have to abide by the power to weight law either. Not sure if this is true or not.

what I meant by that post was if your address is in qld and they pull you over in vic they are none the wiser where you live because your licence says you live in qld, but if the same cop does it he may click to it, BUT he has to prove that you live there and not just visiting twice, its a case of how much you push the limits and how much they notice you, I know that when I was in the Army the cops let it slide as they tend to support the armed forces. (or whatever as I dont know what cops think)

the cops cannot really do anything. u're allowed to drive around with your licence for 3months. say u go bak to qld for a holiday or something(within the 3months), the current 3 months defaults and starts over again. it makes sence coz for e.g. u might have cousins living in Vic and visit them every christmas or something. for the cops to accumulate/note down the amount of time u've spent in Vic is crazy. u dont live there and shouldnt have to change ya licence, rego over etc.

      Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
