Not to worry...

Should be OK next time - but hey, you've been told that already by how many?

Went thru a STOP sign on my 1st go.

Besides, I hear that...

there's a f**king flamin mongrel driving inspector around Vic somewhere & his Ferrari is being driven by his g/f

(This is 11-12 odd years ago now so I am not sure if you can still do it.)

My instructor came along for the ride on my P's test and sat in the back seat. He was well known by most of the examiners in the area. It just so happened he knew the examiner I got and they proceeded to spend the whole test gas-bagging to each other. I don't think the examiner gave a shit if I did the right thing or not. Try that! Works everytime.

i remember my test, i passed first time, it was a breaze, i guess im just an ace driver. :D

+1

L's = passed first go

red P's= ^

greens= ^

Full = ^

my reds was piss easy, 15 mins max and did the reverse park, parallel and 3 point.

The $200 must've been a bit of a sting, but you'll know what to expect for next time. Good luck! :down:

The way i see it is , Ok you have to get your red p's well...lets just get into the car and drive like an 80 year old retired baker.Once you get it what can they do , you can drive how you want to.In short form just drive like that and you will be a sure pass.

We never had anything like that.

Drove to town picked up the local copper, went for a drive. He asked how far I’d stop from a rail crossing. I said 500m. Why so far? To be on the safe side I said. Did a hill start. He said you didn’t use the handbrake. I said didn’t need to. He got out; put a bit of chalk behind the wheel. Now do it and if you crush the chalk you fail. Didn’t crush the chalk.

OK now what about my tractor licence? Where’s the tractor. On the farm, wanna go see? No she’s right.

How about my semi licence. Where’s the semi? Just stop that one (one of Dad’s).

Got in and went for a drive. These things are big he says, never been in one before. Can you reverse up that street? No worries, back it up, tear the bitumen to bits turning the tri-axle.

Shit, didn’t know it would do that, let’s go back to the station.

All good he says, just remember you can’t drive any better today because you’ve now got a licence than you could yesterday.

True.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • 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!
    • 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...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
