Hey guys...

Expecting to lose it soon for about 3 or 6 months... not sure.

Anyway I've just purchased my PS3 with Gran Turismo 5 & have the Logitech G25 steering wheel on order...

I have a girlfriend which conveniently drives... :D

What do u guys think? Will i go insane..? I work in the city and go by train anyway...

...Forgot to ask, anyone have any good legal aid contacts in relation to these sought of cases??

Use the time to reflect WHY you lost the priveledge to drive in the first place :D

i reckon it would suck to not drive & being dependable with relatives/other half etc to be driven around.

I havent lost my license as such (touch wood) but am just saying imagine you wanna go to this & that places & cant go

cos no license....then u miss out big time lol

but yeh it would suxorz :D lol

I actually like losing my license... I normally garage the car and just work on it! It is actually pretty fantastic :D

But when that happened I could have walked to work (2kms away) but still got a lift, and happen to be in a car club :)

Saved a shit tonne of money and had a ball being productive on the car!

And whenever I went out it would be drinks somewhere, so I couldn't drive anywhere anyway...

^^ lmao thats one way to look at it.

im about t lose my license too, i lost 3 points for not having p plates up and another 3 for talking on mobile (it was on handsfree speaker i thought it was legal to talk on handsfree in the car, eg blutooth headset thing is legal?)

i dont know what im going to do once i have lost it =/

for me it was like loosing a leg. made it alot harder getting to places. learnt my lesson and spared heaps of k's on the engine...ha. but getting on the piss and taking the last train home sucks balls.

+1

YUP thats true.

I lost mine last month and still got 2 more to go :D got done for speeding ;) ..

it does feel like you have no legs and very inconvenient eg. late at night you feel like a kebab

and you cant drive + everyones sleeping..unless you wanna risk it ;)

save you heaps of money on petrol i reckon and games will help for a while ^_^

GL mate

i didnt lose my licence. but was without a ride for 4 months due to major modifications. the first month is the WORST.

but even though i hated it and missed driving, after the first month u kind of get into a rythem and get used to it.

BUT NEVER EVER AGAIN... dont lose your liscence again :/

I lost mine for 6 a few months back.. It was NOT fun.. The first 3 months seem to fly by, but those extra 3 really take a while..

And i might be losing it again soon as I've been in and out of court 3 times now (Won every time) But, after that 5 points loss or w/e for the 6 month fine I have/am/might be on 0 points, and a few weeks ago.. of all things I got 2 points for doing a U-turn on a quiet Thursday night at 10pm with not a soul in sight.. Except the cop who just happened to be coming around the corner down the road as I made my turn :/

I'm not sure how this is going to play out, as it's so covenient having the car for uni as I can sleep in longer.. But meh, anything is better than 6 months..

And petrol is so dam expensive now anyway meh, might give me time to save up and play around with the car a bit.

Bah, you're complaining about losing your licence for 3 or maybe six months?

I haven't had a licence for almost 2 years and still have 10 months to go!! It sure does suck but you sort of get used to it. I ride my push bike now when i can't get lifts, at least i'm getting fit!

you can apply for the 1 year good behaviour thingy

Thats what i am doing.

Bloody took a trip to Tassie,had a hire car, didnt realize they do not warn you about upcoming speed cameras.Lost 6 points in a space of 30mins.

Got back to Sydney and a week later got the fines in the mail.Two days after that i crashed the skyline trying to get the hospital where my missus was.There went another 3 points in neg driving.Fark what a great week that was.

Try and get a Good Behaviour Bond or a Special Hardship Order. Im on a SHO now and I can only drive to and from work and to and from uni but its better than nothing. Theres a few ways around losing the license so do your research and don't just lay down and take it. I appealed my second offence and that alone got me 6 months before I went to court. But i spose if you cant be bothered its always good to save money etc. And like what was said above you'll find out who your tru friends are.

hehehe i recon u guys wil like this one... I LOST MINE FOR 15 MONTHS.... 2 months left...... its hard .. really hard.... 8 months through i decided to buy my gtr so i could work on it and get it prepped

:( i mean seriously 15 MONTHS

help >_<

well..

it's like this..

Having your license is like having sex on Tap.. Good sex.. Hot sex.

You lose that, and you can have all the blow up dolls, vaso and porn you can buy to replace the real thing, but in the end, after you've left your load in that plastic bitch, and wiping your wang before you turn off that porn, you will think about how much you miss real hot poontang.

So I've been told.

well look on the bright side...now is a perfect time to do all those modifications to your car that would have had it off the road for some time...eg respray, engine out...those kind of mods...you can take your time about it ..no need to rush it so you can drive to work etc....

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
