Hello fellow skyliners.As some of you might remember, while ago i posted a topic regarding me being pulled over while on suspension.To my suprise there were heaps of responses, alot of assumptions equaling me freaking out as i just did not know what to expect.Must say there were some good feedbacks but anyhow will give a shorts tory as what happened as i did go to court.I did hire a lawyer who represented me.Apparently i had one of the toughest judges you can get so therfore i shyte my pants even more.Lawyer did the spill about importamce of not prolonging the licence, this and that all in all job was done really well.Now the verdict was that considerationwas taken regardingmy licence so therefore no extention was made, however i had to pay a hefty fine of$1200.00 and be put on a good beaviour bond for 12 months.Now i was quite happy with that knowing how much i need my licence for work and also to drive the car i so much love.Just to some of you that are doing what i did or are waiting for the court, it really is not worth it as you can stuff up quite a bit and get your life out of balance.This situation has thought me a lesson (albeit expesive one) which will just make me not do stupid things (even though i got pulled over when going to work).Now regarding the offence if convicted it is recorded i believe but it can not interfere with you job career as it is only a traffic offence.Also if you end up going to court second time while under suspension, well all i can say that jail a madatory resource so pleae be very carefull and do not be silly as me.At the end of the day this offence so minimal in the eye of law, however noone and i mean no one gets away without conviction (do not stress about this as it is only a traffic conviction) as the public nor police like it.Anyhow hope this will be a good read to all of you that are going thru something i had already gone thru.Regards skyliners :worship:

was this for street racing or some other?

(do not stress about this as it is only a traffic conviction)

Thats pretty poor information. Wait until you need to get a security cleared job where this conviction will cause you extra hassles (probably wont have any real negative effect, but will prolong the process). Wait until you want to visit America and your visa application is delayed because you have a criminal conviction and they also want to interrogate you about it first.

ANY conviction can and will cause you problems later in life, you just cant see them yet.

But congratulations on the leniant sentance.

sweet! now you got 12month to learn to f**king write.

go here www.yahoo.com and do a search for the word "Paragraph"

use it next time.

Well thank you funkey monkey f...Did i ask for you stupid coment?No i did not .I am trying to let warn other people to be cautious.How 'bout you f..... off you i....t.And to the rest of youz finding pins and needles,my post is not insultive to any one, not even police, i am even saying that it thought me a lesson albeit an expensive one.I am not saying i wil be doing it again, hell no i am saying that i will be very cautious, and yes i hate the conviction, even though it is a traffic conviction.if you can cay something consrtuctive go for it, dont be so critical.I regret what i did, if i had that time and this understanding, i would have not done it. :(

gald you ended up getting the licence back. A futher suspension would have been a nightmare, not to mention if you got busted again...

if you dont mind me asking, what court house did you go to?

P.S just go back and edit you first post to have paragraphs so every c**t shuts up

Okay, just to add some more info for ppl in the sake it might help them somehow...

My Story,

16pts on P's -> Suspended 6months via demerit points (aka QT) -> Disqualified for 6months + $300 fine for driving on suspension -> Disqualified for 2yrs + $800 fine for disobeying Court Order...next step if i get caught driving in the next 2yrs is 5yr ban or goal time...hence why I won't be stepping anywhere near a car on an Australian gvnt rd any time soon....

every time i pleaded guilty and dressed expensivelly....didn't even waste time with appealing it as i'm pretty certain theres no way i can be saved now, i'm thinking of just moving to NZ and freighing my car over when it's finished..

oh..forgot to mention, i workED 70hr weeks at 2 jobs earning alot of money to pay off a looot of debts and having no social life..kidna hard to get work when ur work is 8km away from nearest public transport and the time in bewteen shifts isn't enough to walk/ride a bike there from that nearest public transport place hahahaha

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
