Correct me if i'm wrong guys, but i've heard that the NSW law of P platers not allowed to drive high powered cars will be brought into VIC sometime in the middle of this month?? Can someone confirm that please?

I think i read that somewhere, but they'd probably rework it first, that loophole where hi-power NA's are allowed wouldn't stay for long. But i think there is one out if they do bring it in - when they brought it to NSW i'm pretty sure, if you got your p's, or already owned an outlawed car before the ban was put into place, you could still drive it. (NSW dudes, feel free to correct me)

I think alot of it comes down to your driving style also. If you drive like a tool your attracting attention to yourself. The only times I have ever been pulled over have been because I am doing something wrong (and I do spend ALOT of time on the road) not because of the car I am driving. I haven't been pulled over for upwards of a year now in any of my cars.

Just my 2 cents :ermm:

I dont agree with u here. i drive a stock 93 v6 commodore im on p plates for just over 2 years now, the only fines i have are for parking illigally have not lost a single point on my licence but have been pulled over more than 30 times for 'random licence checks', one time i got pulled over twice in a span of 3 hours on the same road by different police. all because of a stupid red p on the back window, what the f**k is the deal with people knowing your a p plater anyway makes no difference to me

Maybe I just been lucky, fingers crossed it stays that way

Isn't it supposed to be so people can "watch out for you" because you haven't had much driving experience, kinda like a learner on L's only more advanced :blush:

Why would the Vic police bring in the NSW p plate law when we have one ourselves that in my opinion works better than a blanket ban?

I'm with you on that one rhett, it's really a poorly thought out ban. I mean what the hell is with banning turbodiesels just because of the 'turbo' prefix....

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
