just wanting to know what the consequences are when a p-plater is caught driving a turbocharged car when it is prohibited.

How much are the fines?

How long are suspensions?

What happens to the car?

also hearing a lot about ppl getting exemptions from the rta. is there any way of getting an exemption for a r34 gt-t standard?

cheers!

A mate of mine got pulled over twice in one night by the same copper 2 weeks ago. heres what he copped twice, 7 points each time and $350 that equals 14 points in one night on green P plates in Sydney... Driving a close to standard R33 gtst he is spewin..We thought it was only 2 points each time lol

In NSW it is 7 points and a $384 fine.

You could try for an exemption but you need a really good reason to drive that car. i.e. If it was a ute or something you could say you need to drive it for work.

I can't think of any reason why you'd need a GT-T.

Good point...

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
