So if we have 12 now, when the laws come in it'll automatically drop down to 4? Or only if you get your P's after the laws come in? Cos how many people have less then 8 demerit points left? If that happens, so many people would unfairly lose their license!

I'm sure I read somewhere a few months ago that if/when they bring this change in if you have less than 12 points you will still have 4. They won't be able to take people's licences over it. I'll try find it.

When you get pulled over DON'T ADMIT ANYTHING!

Thats how you get into trouble for shit you didn't do.

When I was on my P's with my Torana, Cops used to harass me all the time accusing me of things a I definitely didn't do, They would yell, threaten and swear at me trying to get my to admit to doing burnouts/speeding.

Even when I did do something wrong, like driving at 130km per hr on the brand hwy going to Geraldton in my pulsar. They pulled me over, breathized me and asked if I knew how fast I was going. I said I knew but didn't admit to speeding. He then said we clocked you at 130kmph, I shrugged and didn't say anything. after that he just let me go...

On that note, Don't break the law, its bad. lul

yep the news is getting it wrong agian.

was a 180sx, P Plater, Passenger (16year old girl) died.

then on Friday night, commodore lost it at high speeds, hitting a pole, chopped it in half and throwing a girl in the back seat into on coming traffic (A Subaru WRX) which chopped of her leg.

Crazy weekend I tell yah..

^^^ haha I agree..

But WA is so far behind from Eastern states, they've already got all the bans on P Platers on what they can drive. yet over here hasnt followed

R.I.P to the girl

Edited by viet_boi

yeah true, but just feel sorry for the girl..its always the passenger that dies..

seen to many similiar shit on tv about a P plater guy speeding, crash, passenger (Girl) die.....guys showing off i guess?

2L, 4 cylinder engines don't sound to powerful. Was the Commodore a V8? Cos no matter how powerful a car is, you can do something stupid and kill yourself with it. Even a Charade...

I was just talking to my dad about this and agree completely. You're going to be able to go at high speeds and do stupid things in any car. It's down to the driver being smart enough to realise what they are capable of doing safely.

I've driven my mum's car (1.6L Protege) at over 40km/h over the limit without even noticing. Then I'll drive my car (2.5L Non-turbo R33) at just over the limit, but I've driven a few turbo cars, and I keep it at the limit. Not sure how it works, but the more powerful the car, the slower you drive. If that makes sense?

Didn't they say something like it's had $6,000 worth of engine mods, converted to supercharger or something.

Either way, does anyone remember the number to vote 'no' on the p plater performance ban, just so all the mums watching the tv don't win by default.

P plate performance ban could be anything :| half the camrys on the road are quicker than the NA skylines and silvias lol, blah 5 star rating, it wouldnt happen if there was actually suspension in place, that said, sad incident though and that driver is going to have to live with it. The other guy in the WRX wont be able to drive for sometime now

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
