You only have to do one parking test also. Did a 10metre reverse and park or something. I was ready to do every parking i learnt. Expected more challenges from the test but it was just a quick 10min run around the block.

If ya make one or two little mistakes to at the beginning don't stress, most assessors will allow for you to be a little bit nervous at the start. Just chill out and don't dwell, there is nothing that you can do to change your mistake, so don't stress over it. Instead just get on with the drive.

Think of it this way, if you fail all you have to do is reschedule and get as much practice in as possible and some paid lessons, and re do it.

Some other tips. What ever car you are going to use for the test that is the car you should be practicing in, so that you become comfortable in it which will make you more relaxed. Also get as much practice in as possibility before the event! If you’re going to be in the car with a person with a full lenience, then tell them that you will drive. Also if it is raining then try to go for a drive, practice in as many weather conditions as possibility, so if it happens on the day you know what to expect.

Good luck buddy, let us know how it goes...

Edit:

There is also an interactive CD that you can get from TAC called Drive Smart, It will help you with the test's. Link below to order

hpt is stupid. The pixels are like 3cm by 3cm. I nearly failed it purely because i got all nervous and clicked for no reason! If you fail the driving test(which is way to easy) you dont deserve your p's. Just relax

haha i dint have to do the perception test. read the book one and passed the computer test. but failed the driving test first time. why cuz i was nervous.

i was calling the demister a de-fogger and vice versa and got impatient at a round about, and the instructor didnt like me cuz i has foreign license.

anyway moral of story, do not get a test on peak times (too much traffic) and if u are at a roundabout or getting on a main road stay there until the road is completely clear even if it takes 20min :-)

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.

      RB26 turbo oil banjo bolts

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.

      ugently need expert / experienced opinion

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess

      Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.

      RB25DET NEO Cylinder Head

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Yeah I spent close to a year finding one. I was even tempted to buy a RB25DE N/A head and port it out. That latter option, could still be an option.
