Hey guys,

I got pulled over for driving and unregistered vehicle last night..not a problem the rego ran out mid october and I was gonna pay it next week..so the fine I'll cop without a problem..do the wrong thing pay for it as far as I'm conerned..

however I was just wondering the officer didnt actually issue me a ticket on the spot..is this a common practice nowdays and you get it in the mail instead?

also anyone know what the fine is likely to be?? Im pretty sure I don't lose demerit points according to the vicroads website but I'm interested in what Ill be paying..

thanks..

i got the same thing but i payed mine the day before i got pulled over . paid it online and it didnt come up on vic roads logs that it was paid, so i got the fine on the spot. i got out of the fine later on but it was sumfin like $552 or about that.

Curious what did the cop say when you told him you paid? Was he ok about it? And what did VicRoads say to you when you called about the fine and telling them that you DID in fact pay

Damn VicRoads...

I payed my rego on my daily a little while ago, and about a month and a half later they sent me a letter in the mail telling me I'm driving around in an unregistered car.

What actually had happened is their credit card system stuffed up, subsequently making hundreds of people receive fines from the police for driving unregistered. Luckily I didn't get pulled up in this time.

i got pulled up about a month ago now...he said its 570 dollars id just come back from mount buller at the time so didnt have much time ro pay the rego, but the cop was good about it...the only thing he said was is look i cant let you go coz its come up on my screen and i need to save my ass which i was cool about...

but i never recieved an on the spot or in the mail..

prior to this i got a stop sign ticket and and no licence on me fine both of those were recived in the mail about 2 weeks after the incedent

stop sign ticket? i'm just gonna throw my guess out there and see what happens but i'm guessing you mean that you didn't stop at a stop sign and you got fined for it? if so..WTF?

I'd paid my Rego and forgot to put the sticker on... ...I was lucky because the cop wanted to fine me for it... ...but there are no rules when it comes to which sticker you display (as far as I know)... ...it all comes down to if you've paid it or not...

I believe that the fine is now $567 for Unregistered. There are no demerit points attached. I am sure that if you have paid rego and receive a fine for unregistered as Vic Roads haven't updated it (which actually happens quite a bit) just send in copy of receipt/Bpay on Stat Dec to civic compliance with fine and they cancel the fine.

Yes it's definirely an offence not to have current rego label afixed and is $57 fine no demerit points again.

With fines in mail it's a common practice to issue them later in mail.

Hope this answers a few questions.

Thanks graeme sure helps.. Good thing we have a specialist in the field hey lol..I've paid the rego now..but I've learnt my lesson pretty quick about taking the driving with no rego chance :D

my big problem was I brought the car a month before the rego expired..because it's so close to the expiration date vicroads doesnt issue a label cause its already gone to the old owner instead your meant to ring them and pay via credit card..which I don't have.. so I got them to mail a payment letter out and continued to drive until the payment letter arrived not knowing it was wrong since I was waiting for the label.. I know its wrong now and I did the wrong thing so I'll cop it and pay for it..the officer was a good bloke and I had a bit of a lugh with him so I can't complain...

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Are you suggesting that the kit did a cheap and nasty job of just jamming the wheel in between other things and caused the misalignment? I mean, we normally do this with an integrated crank trigger wheel, not something bodged on. It's not 1995 any more.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I mean, given the number of BMWs you own their tolerance for improper torque is rather low. The number of torque + angle spec bolts and non-reusable bolts in one is nuts.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Atmospheric vent requires something that doesn't use a MAF for load. You would need a standalone ECU for that.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      Hey all,   I’ve got an RB25 with a trigger kit that includes a crank wheel, and I’ve hit a wall trying to sort a timing belt tracking issue. The belt either rides right on the edge of the cam/crank pulleys or walks slightly forward once the engine starts. It tracks okay-ish for a moment, then creeps right to the edge—and honestly, it’s stressing me out.   I’ve spent hours removing and reinstalling the belt, double-checking everything:   Tensioner setup is good, checked multiple times Idler pulley and washers are all in the correct places Followed the RB25 timing procedure step-by-step     The only thing I changed was the rear crank washer—I swapped the OEM one for a Neato version, and it made things worse. The belt now sits even more forward than before. I’m beginning to think the crank trigger wheel itself (from the trigger kit) is the issue—poor design or slightly off dimensions.   What’s strange is that with the previous belt setup, it actually ran fine for a couple of years—around 4,000 to 5,000 miles, even with hard driving and high RPMs. But even then, the belt was always riding right on the edge, and I know that’s not ideal or safe long term.   At this point, I’m debating whether to:   Machine a few mm off the crank trigger wheel to bring it back in line, or Replace it entirely with a better-designed unit     Only thing is, I already have the Cherry Hall sensors, bracket, etc.—I just want to replace the wheel only, not the entire kit. Anyone know a brand or supplier that sells just the crank trigger wheel on its own?   Would really appreciate any feedback—especially from anyone who’s run into this exact issue and found a reliable fix.   Thanks in advance.
