ok well as the topic stats i'm lookin for a good lawyer, i was just going to accept the dangerous driving charge till i realised that 2nd offence carries mandatory 6 months disqualification so i'm trying to fight it down to careless

i wont go into the details cause its fairly complex, but if any of you have had good experiences with lawyers let me know

cheers

ok...

hung over (not still pissed it was like 3/4pm) driving my skyline after about a month of driving a run down POS corona i took a turn too fast, lost the rear end, brought it back, hit a patch of sand, spun, stalled, saw ppl trying to take a pic i paniked, did a little skid leaving. then cops come round my place while i'm playing with the sound system ask me what the go is, tell me they have 2 whitnesses and a pic, i owned up to it. knowing the difference between reckless and dangerous i made sure that i repeatedly said it was an accident. they took me to the scene to take pics of the marks, i took pics of the sand and the bumps on turn in (JIC coilovers dont like the bumps much) got charged with reckless which i'll have no problem gettin down to dangerous... careless on the other hand :S

i also dont have the best record ever, lost my licence twice while on my P's one of which being for dangerous in a very similar situation althought i'm not sure how long that stuff stays on your record

my lawyer costed me about 1k originally was charged with reckless drivin but dropped the charges down to a dangerous will find out the number for u n post it for ya

but he was good got reccomended by a frd who works in the justice depo

Isn't that telling you something? Chill the fk out dude, stop being a hero. You're gonna hurt someone one day!

i no that i could have denied it (been there done that) but in this situation i felt that it was better to fess up from the get go and try and get the charge reduced, it saved my car being impounding and me being arrested

since finding out about the whole 2nd dangerous offence i do regret it, but what ya gunna do... i still maintain that what i did wasnt reckless, prob dangerous and definatly careless but if it makes u happy Stirch9 i've sold my skyline and bought a track car so the temptation will be removed

if it's ur second offence then chances of winnin the case is very minimal. ma lawyer told me it was lucky it was ma first case otherwise he wouldn't even take on ma case

fair enough, if convicted it'll be my 1st reckless offence, but i do realise that i dont have the best chances, but what can ya do ;)

any luck finding his number?

his name is mark gunning

located on haystreet

number is 93253833

if it's ur second offence then chances of winnin the case is very minimal. ma lawyer told me it was lucky it was ma first case otherwise he wouldn't even take on ma case

Do you speak like you type?

Oh, and allow me to translate:

Duh ya tok lahk ya tipe?

(I just thought I would throw in something to distract others from flaming Strich9!)

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
