You dont have to go back onto your l's, you will be issued with a new licence but not a gold one if you held that before you lost it. Regarding points im 99% sure you will have the same amount of points on there as when you lost it. Your points come back 3 years from the offence date.

the last time I lost my lisence I'm suspended for 3 months and got to re-take both theory and practical test...I still have 12 points when I got suspended so not sure about the points

I'm in W.A so not sure how it works on the other side

when this happened - how did you actually get your license back ? do they just send it back to you in the post or someting? or do you gotta go get photograph and all that shit ?...

the cop said theyd send me something in the mail.... i wasnt really listening , he was being to much of a tool..

but yeah looks like i got the same as you did - although he said something about knocking me up for a couple of years , "the woman copper" said hes one of the nice cops on the road.. im like yeah say that to me again .

Did you get your license suspended or cancelled & confiscated on the spot?

If you were only suspended like I have been in the past, you will get a letter in the mail notifying you of when your licence will be suspended & how long until you can drive again. You still keep your existing licence, you just can't drive while suspended.

It will all be explained in the letter.

Tough luck dude :(

yeah this is the way I got suspended before, just a letter in the mail informing me that I am suspended from this date to that date. and after the suspension I could still drive.

no going to RTA or doing Ls again etc..

hope this helps

p/s-sorry to hear about your license..

all those who want to know - i called up the rta today .

iv just been suspended for 6 months . and lost all my points. so what happens is - iv just gotta go and get the photo done again before the date . only thing is i have no points until im on black license . so i cant slip up ever . otherwise 3 months straight away because i have no points . but when im on blacks i get the 6 back.

i still dont know why the cop took my license - they even said it was pointless .

can i have some ones honest opinion though - since im off for 6 months should i sell my car

?

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
