ask the 5-0

Just pay as normal but depending on how many points you had left prior to this speeding offence, you may lose your licence again once you finish the suspension you're going on. If you were to receive a speeding fine after the suspension period starts then you would be in trouble.

Happened to me heaps of times, they will just issue another overlapping suspension. So if its a month after u got ur last one then you will lose it for a month extra instead of six extra or whatever your original suspension was

Easiest way: Ring the RTA directly and ask them. They will give you the most accurate answer. The police don't know much about ths type of stuff generally.

The fact is; you haven't lost points, you have accumulated points greater then what your licence allows.

I you are on your greens, you can't accumulate more then 7. If you accumulate more then 7 points, you loose your licence.

Suspension periods

Reaching or exceeding the demerit points limit results in licence suspension. The RTA will send a Notice of Suspension to licence holders who reach or exceed the number of points available for their type of licence.

The period of suspension depends on the number of points accumulated and the type of licence held. For unrestricted gold, silver or magenta licence holders, the suspension periods are:

12 to 15 points: three months.

16 to 19 points: four months.

20 or more points: five months.

For provisional licence holders, the suspension period is three months.

When you get your license back, its going to come directly off the new points you received.

+1 I agree. When you get your licence back with fresh points, you'll lose 3 of them straight off.

What speeding fine you get? Cause you may get an extra suspension for that. And extra suspensions do not overlap in nsw as someone previously said. You receive the extra suspension after you finish the original one.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
