Vic R33 P Platers

[stolen_s15]

Its still there, but you have to prove it.

I would suspect the reigns will be drawn in aswell on that issue.

As it was reasonably easy to have it granted. Even though most did not because the fine was minimal anyhow.

Good luck trying to get VicRoads to believe the only car your family owns in your 45yr old fathers modified R33 GTS-t

Best way to do it is to register a business, and register your parents cars to the business. Then register the suspect vehicle to your parents personally. Very easy to trace and not very difficult, but I found it worked well for a good 3 years.

What does that have to do with getting an exemption?

I was implying that it's not all that uncommon to find 45 year old men driving modified skylines, so proving it to VicRoads would be easier than you suggested (although probably still difficult)

[O-Y-K-B]

im just gonna keep drivin my ea falcon as and every dayer and wen i get another decent car rego inmums name and just drive it on w-es and stuff, if i get done then its my own fault

[sly-747]

Are these laws out now???

I've got a 4 door s2.

Got defected the other day

the TMU didn't hassle me about

Power too weight and at vic roads

they didn't mention anything about it.

for those interested... re: Exemptions

I rang vicroads (several times and averaged the answers lol!)

""IF"" you manage to obtain a letter of exemption from vicroads due to the car being a work related vehicle... it may ONLY be driven while AT work, for only WORK purposes.... and is not allowed to even be driven too and from work! only AT WORK.... so that loophole has well and truely been covered, because if you get caught driving at say; 10:30 on a saturday night with all your mates in the car, dont expect to be able to use the exemption paper!

so garaging, swapping with parents or selling up would probably be quite a wise thing until off your P's... on that note.. who wants to buy my r32 LOL - P-plate Legal!!! haha

early on in my p's i went from a hyundai excel to a r33 gtst and then got my first red light ticket after that i have been real carefull where and when i put my foot down. its quite a challange being in this kind of car with only one point left but i still wont sell my car just because some fat bald guy in a suite thinks i am a hazard to his tax payers funded existence.

i get my opens in august and i plan on keeping my car its my choice. cheers.

Ok pal

So, back too this new law thing

[ak_stylez]

Hey guys,

Well I just called VicRoads, and they confirmed the laws are still coming in.

I also enquired about adding weights, and he said you'd need to get the car weighed at a weigh bridge and then do your own calculations.

I believe there's one on Hume Hwy?

The one on the Hume is miles out. Go to any industrial area or truck yard and ask where they go for weighing as the penalties are high for excess weight. We have one here but its not for vehicles who arent working/doing work for us and also it may not even register a car weight as they are so light in comparison.

weights to the car? it goes by stock figures :s?

so they actually said yes u can make ur car heavier, but ull need to weigh and do the calcs urself?

Wrong again.

The law is off the factory figures. Period.

There is no "unless its modified" "mods are engineered" "whatever".

f**k me do we have to go through this again, it's irrelevant what the moron at vicroads tells you, go a read the law thats written in the book, its factory figures end of story!

[femno]

Theres no way around it and thats that alright!

FYI i will be keeping my car as it is my pride and joy, and will keep driving it until i get dicked. Ive been driving it for a year now, pulled over once for random breatho n that was it. No check under bonnet or power to weight.

$1100 max? Does this mean you first offence may be say around $110, then $500, then 3rd $1100??? That how it works?

[R31Nismoid]

$1100 is $1100. There is no scaled increase.

Its $1100.

And i'll be willing to bet now the law actually carries a reasonable weight. The Police will certainly crack down hard on it.

They arent silly, they know what the cars look like
