Ok had my license 3 years this year

*1 point coming back to me in August :D

*3 Point fine Gt Eastern Hwy caught by Multinova

*Suppose to be 3 point fine discounted to 1 point by coppers also Gt Eastern Hwy

* 1 point fine Kalamunda Rd took for ex (dunno something about the puppy love stage makes u lose your sanity)

* 3 points lost by various multinova incidents one involving a company car.

* pulled over by coppers suppose to recieve a 6 point fine for a roll call of stuff but i was let go

* Coppers switched lights on to chase me at last minute decided not to - let go

* ^ similar to above recently - let go again

* 1 point recently Gt Eastern Hwy on way to SAU meeting at Como but the fine as come thru jus thavent paid it

END TOTAL 2 POINTS :D if it wasnt for multinovas i would be on east st :D

how do these people do it?? I mean if i relyed on coppers they are always more than generous with me and i would still have most of my points. But multinovas just kill me!!

Its just sooo easy to speed - i can tunderstand people like my parent sthat have performance vehicles then drive them around like shopping trolleys!

I've had my r33 for 15 months now and havent lost any points. The last time I lost points was about 4 years ago when a cop car caught me doing 90 in a 60 zone, but as I pulled over for him and stopped and waited for him to turn around and get out of traffic he only gave me a $150 fine and 3 points. Most of my driving occurs in peak hour traffic, so I dont get the chance to thrash it much, when I do its late at night and I try and pick the roads I know there wont be any multinova's on etc... but you never know where the cops are... just luck I havent lost any points as I've had the r33 up to 200km/hr (at least I assume seeing as the tacho reads out to 180km/hr) :D

Hi all,

how many of you out there have a Skyline/fast import and still have all 12 points?  

pfft fast import. look at my car. u dont need to be fast to lose points :)

actually most of my lost points have happened in my mums Toyota Starlet..... all up i have lost 9 but i start getting em back soon.

*Lost 1 - doin 71 in a 60 zone (multinova)

*Lost 3 - doin 80 in a 60 zone

*Lost 4 - doin 120 in a 70 zone (actually got done for a fair bit more but policeman was nice and dropped the speed and reduced the points to 4)

*Lost 1 - 61 in a 50 zone (multinova)

Thankfully though i have corrected my speeding ways and havent had a single fine since November 2001. Mostly i have just been lucky though :P I do have to say that i regret losing all those points cause now insurance hates me and i cant even get a job as a bus driver plus it works out to almost 600 bucks wasted just on fines :( . ne way thanx for listening

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
