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! :)

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
