While I dont know this for sure, an old workmate told me he had an issue with P plates which he put to the police to find out what the case was.

Legally its stated as P plates have to be clearly viewable on the outside of the vechile. So with tinted windows, you really arent supposed to have them on the inside of the car at all. Especially how some pople hide them in corners and so forth. So technically if you have tinted windows or read visors, etc you should display it outside the vechile.

PS: Go to Sydney, they are all outside the cars :D

Yeah, wtf is up with that?

Stick it on the fkn window you tool, how hard is it?

It's because sometimes the P plates are visible when placed inside the car. Either the windows are too tinted, or the angle of the rear window is too slanted. The poh-leese pulled me up in my 33 complaining about that, and told me glue one to my rear bar... It never happened lol.

Not from Melbourne, but my hated car lists are:

Excel (especially ones where people spend money to riced them up, might as well just throw all that $ done the toilet).

Civic (the old hatch model, look like a ugly bug, riced up ones just makes me hate them more).

BMW 318 (Got a bunch of family friends who buys a 2nd hand one & thinks they are in the rich group coz they drive a BMW; the cars that doctors drive... hello its a 318! the bottom of the 3's range! come back & show off when you have at least bought a 335, M3 or 760).

Jazz (just don't like it)

+1 riced up lancers

+1 camrys driven by 1.4m blind asian women thinking 60 means 6

+1 318s....now i really hate these....the worst thing is that those guys think theyre fast...pwoah i wana get my mums magna out and just rape one of those fux....:) angry :)

Anything made by SsangYong!!!!!

Dirtiest cars ever.

haha. Two girls from my high school bought these shit 80s 318is for that exact reason; they thought they made them look classy. The pieces of shit broke down so often and had to get towed holding up the whole rest of the car park from going home.

N/A S13s with chromies and the like give me the shits. Was at my friend's panel shop, and a guy with one came in asking for a 'body kit.' My friend said sure, it'll be blah blah to fit it if you supply one. And he goes can't you supply one? My friend asks the guy what kind of kit he wants (Vertex, GP Sport, etc) and the guy goes on to say "I just want a kit. The guy around the corner said he'd give me a body kit painted for $1000"

Screw you Patrick - I regularly have lights on during the day. Company policy :blink:

Makes people look at the cars more.

so..

2 light bulbs, say 55W each = 110W.

say you do 20000km per year, at an average speed of 45km/h..

say you drive during the day 70% of the time..

20000 / 45 = 444 driving hours/year

444 * 0.70 = 311 day time driving hours/year

311 * 110 = 34KWh day time lighting energy/year

1 litre of fuel ~ 16KWh of chemical energy

assume 25% efficiency for a combustion engine, and 70% for an alternator, which means

16 * 0.25 * 0.70 = 2.8KWh of energy from 1 litre of fuel

34 / 2.8 = 12 litres of fuel per year for lighting during the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's $18!!!!!!

And we haven't even considered the cost of changing light bulbs!!!

What about the effect on the environment!!!

shame on you! :)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
