The fine used to be $110 and no points, but damn now $1.1K + 3 points? i dont think there will be too many P platers on the road with performance cars after the set date

That's the idea, you can thank the smack tards who do street racing in turbo vehicles and V8's for this crap. This is the government reacting to public out cry. Get used to it.

man ive noticed that in the past month there have been nothing but stories about street draging and stuff, and lets not forget noble maccas. ffs this is gonna be hard man, oh well 2 more years, i can do it :P

A mate of mine got killed in a Hyundai Excel. These law's won't stop the road toll. Driver training is what's needed.

I used to have a sticker on my old car, maybe I should get it reprinted. It said: Don't ban high performance cars, ban low performance drivers!

Yes but I think in this case.. you're not likely to see an Excel going 160k/hr and I think that's the difference and the narrow point of view that the govt sees it from.

Don't think I'm on the side of these new laws tho.

The majority of tossers driving around like f/tards and flying through traffic are usually in a commodore. Doesn't need to be a v8 either.

Its like if I see a skyline doing 140+ and almost running people off the road, I remember it for months because it's a rare event. However a commodore acting like a tard and going at the same speeds.. it's hard to remember one from another because it happens so frequently...

Actually utes have been the worst offenders of late.

I think the actual statistics on fatalities and make/model of car involved would be more beneficial to the public.. as opposed to the current media process of.. if its a skyline, 300zx, 180sx etc say "SKYLINE" and if its anything else put "SEDAN".

Hope that makes sense, I'm in a rush :P

just do community service if you cant pay it off lol

but still should be obeying those laws (yes they suck, but what can we do?)

Can you really do comm service if you get fined?

So say i get one of these fines, and i wont be able to pay it off, i can do comm service instead?

Or will they tell me to sell my car to pay for it :cheers:

all i can say, is its gunna "SUX" to be a "JU"

sucks to be a jew? lol

As far as I know, 1991-1993 R32's are the legal ones....1990 would probably be over the CURRENT power to weight limit, so it'd be a no....

Tare sticker on my rego says 1250kg, stock power is 158kw = 126.4kw/tonne

I remember ive read somewhere that it is under the limit, but the above calculation isnt helping and if cops go by the weight on the rego sticker...then im in trouble lol

rego sticker weights mean nothing.

According to this site;

http://nissanskyline.6te.net/GTST_spec.htm

R32 weighs 1320kg. If vicroads uses this weight the car is 119~kw/tonne.

There is a difference in weight between 89-90 and 91-93 because of the added intrusion bars in the later models. Question is, would vicroads put that much detail in measuring weights of different year.

i got a '92 gtst so im all sweet, plus i got 18" and me being 6ft 5" and weighing 100kg helps out lol :thumbsup:....

what has this got to do with the price of fish in China?

It's the FACTORY weight of the vehicle without passengers...

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn

    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
