Just wanted to know if anyone has applied and has been granted for an RTA exemptions lifted for work purposes when you're holding a provisional (P1 and P2)?

What needed to be done besides sending them a letter from the employer.

Was it easy to get and where there specific conditions to the Exemptions eg. could only drive between a certain time frame 9-5pm. Could you only be able to drive mon-friday or during business hours etc...

Do they call and check with your employer etc

If anyone has done this before would be good for some feedback...

Cheers

im pretty sure its only exempted for driving inside your work hours given providing that you are using their cars. saying that you're working at an auction place, or car yard etc

im sure they will call to check if you have like a bad record or somthing but not 100% on that.

ive only tried applying for private one

Im pretty much in the same boat as you. Just waiting for my ABN registration then lm off to the RTA to apply for my turbo exemption. Hopefully l can apply for a 24/7 Exempt as lm operating my own Auto Parts Store visiting clients and customers.

Hopefuly it all works out =D

2 guys at work got the turbo exception and they are allowed to drive any exempt car while they are employed with the company i work for. 1 of them also rang up after and they are allowed to drive the cars at any time of the day/night aswell

So they are allowed to drive anytime as long as there still employed there?

i gt turbo exemption for work it dosent say i can or cant drive 24/7 but the way its worded i drive it alltime cops ant even asked 4 it..

How easy was it to get your expemtion? what was the things you had to proved the RTA to get it approved and do they call to check etc?

If you are an apprentice mechanic you need to supply proof of enrollment of the TAFE course, a letter with a letterhead of the workshop signed by the boss.

Probs for a full time mechanic you'd just need a letter off the boss i reckon?

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
