i got done for 25 over (automatic 1 month suspension).

i have just one question. after i send my license in, what do i do to get it back after serving the suspension? do they return it or do i apply to get it back?

i'm assume they will send me something telling me what to do but it'd be good to hear from other who have gone through it as well.

cheers

lol they dont trust you to not drive. To me it doesnt make a difference if you keep it or not (even though you have to hand it in) because if you show your license and they run it through it will say its suspended. Even if they ruin your rego plates through it will say the owner of the vehicle has his license suspended.

But yea 3 months and 23 days left for me unfortunately :glare:

they say you should hand it in, but if you need it for ID or whatever you could just tell them you lost it, or that you did infact hand it in. They seem to be pretty poorly organised down at vicroads.

Anyway when i lost mine (lol recurring theme here)... i rocked up on the day i was due to get it back (at 9am of course) and just asked for it and they gave me another one with new photo etc... didn't realise about posting :S

for all the many times i have lost mine, i have NEVER handed my licence in, i paid for it there for i keep it..

for a pissy one month suspension, just keep ur licence card, but if its a 12month thing like most of us lol, then a updated photo, will be nessasary, and also depending expirary on the card itself..

as for vic roads, i dont think there is enough room on this page and enough swear words i can say about them and also how organised they are..

i am currently serving 10month suspension for something i did in '05, cbf getting started cause im feeling rather relaxed tonight..

I lost mine.... for 6 months, i searched high and low, then last friday i found it.... behind the fridge! :sick:

Anwoo....They are supposed to send you a letter telling you you can have your license back. And yeah your 'supposed' to hand your license into them.

Of course being a a goverment department, it's run by muppets.

Best bet is to keep you license...put it in a drawer, DON'T DRIVE, then when your time is up go to Vicroads and get the OK.

I also got done for 3months when I received a letter saying where's your license after the intial one I just said I had posted it in and it must have got lost of stolen in the mail..now if u use it to drive and are stupid enough to gte caught expect a 500bucks fine plus extras :blink: but if you just wanna keep it for ID just say something simlar to what i did and when you are due to get your license back they will notify you to come down and pose for a new photos and license...I now have 3 licenses as I never handed back in my L's, or my p's and now have my full lol...good for nights out when your sure your gonna lose something lol..

weird how all these people on a performance car forum have lost their license @ 1 time or another :)

agreed.

im sure on the Toyota echo forums that there isnt many of these threads.

Takes a lot of self control to not speed when tilting your right foot a few degrees down unleashes so much power.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
