nothing special happened to me, the usual loss of 4 points, 1500$ fine.. and an orange sticker slapped on my car to indicate that my car must be towed to have it inspected.

As you can see, should be fine.

any news on the man charged for doing 190 Km/h on Tuggeranong Parkway?

would be rather interesting to know what sort of car he drives.

Its was me i was in a R33 Gts t and i wont be getting a fine i will be going to jail they will try to make an example out of me

I havent seen any details about the car involved but if you get caught doing a speed heavily exceeding the maximum fine then you go to court to have a judge decide what to do with you. With a good lawyer you could get away with 1-2 years ban and a return on probational restricted license. With a bad lawyer or no lawyer you could get 5 year ban and have to reapply for your license.

If its in the news then most judges will want to be as tough as possible.

Cool, so we got a Skyline, and Flindstones car and a RS...?

Is anyone actually serious?

Would be interesting to know what happens to one, if they get caught doing double the limit

lol I dont care if you belive me or not if dont go jail ill tell you what i get for it if you dont here from me you know what happened

im not telling you guys anything else in case they try to use this against me in court after its all dealt with and if im not in jail ill tell you the whole story i still havent seen what they said in the paper just my mates have told me that im in there and it was in prime news the other night im pretty sure ill be going to jail for this they will make an example out of me and try to use this to bring in the nsw law about crushing cars into the act

I'm aware what they can do, just interested in what they really do.

Kappa, if it was you, good luck man, get a good lawyer. Rem, don't clench down too hard in the slammer, i hear it just makes it bleed more :P

thanks im interested in what will happen too :(

A mate of mines younger brother set the NSW speed record for a L-plater earlier this year. 200+km in a 100 zone... He cant get his licence for a few years and had to go to court, massive fine aswell

Its was me i was in a R33 Gts t and i wont be getting a fine i will be going to jail they will try to make an example out of me

bad news son,

i was hoping it was a commonwhore driver lol i had a run in with one the other day. Fat C*&$ swore at me out his window so i pulled over and approched him and the two girls he was with ready to bang some sence into his head.

When i asked him what he said he replied with "nothing" and acted like the coward he is, so i thought well the girls probly think nothing of him now for being a coward so ill let it slide.

HAHAHAHAHA! I think that's 2 times you've gotten out of the car. I should tag along with you one weekend. :ermm:

Does anyone know what happened to the guy who got caught doing 200+ in his Bentley Continental GT at Collector a few years back? I remember reading the NSW police commissioner when to a Bentley dealership and sat in the car and commented that 'I can see how he can't tell how fast he is going in it because its so quite when its cruising' :P

    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
    • Could be correct. Meter might be that far out. Compare against a known 5 ohm 1% resistor.
    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap.  (edit: I went out and did it right now, the line I had chosen did appear to have no vacuum on it, it used to go to the front of the intake, I've now completely blocked that one off at the bracket that holds several vacuum lines by the firewall.  I T'd into the vacuum line that goes from that bracket to the vacuum pump at the front of the car, but no change in the MAP readings).  Using the new vacuum line that has obvious vacuum on the hose, im still only getting readings between -6.0 and -5.2.  I'm wondering why the ECU was detecting -5.3 when nothing was connected to the MAP nipple and ECU MAP selected as the source. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
