what was his car actually impounded for?

racing?

I havent heard about a loss of license for first offence under the anti hoon legislation.

I thought, for the first offence, the police officer who has sufficent evidence of the suspect committing a hoon offence, has the power to impound the vehicle for 48 hours without a court order.

On the second or subsequent offence, the court may then impound the vehicle for 3 months.

2 wrx racing, and yer it is a she not a he ;) -lost her car for 7days first offence

cops aparanyly kept asking what speeds they got up to as they didnt know, but on the summons to court says they were doing 40k's/h over..:S sooo bs. but yeah shes heading to the court date soon so we'll see if she loses her licence.

In the very early days I heard the the Hoon Laws started off with a warning, with the next offence having the car impounded.

But I know personally, considering my car was impounded on its first reckless driving / hoon law offence.

Back when I got caught I wasn't made to pay any costs until proven guilty, however they have now changed this and you have to pay for the impound before you can drive away with your car.

If I had one of those banners, I would have stolen it. Would have been a nice sun shade screen.

btw, Kel wasn't convicted for her court case.

If they do this to your car, you can take them to court for discriminating against you. Why don't rapists have "rapist" tattooed on their head? So why should we have "HOON" on our car if we are caught doing something under the hoon laws whether it is a burnout or just something smaller?

no i dont think you have to go to Court because excessive noise or smoke is a 3 demerit point infringement but you can have your car confiscated for it.

The only hoon offences you would need to go to Court over would be the ones for reckless/dangerous because they cannot be dealt with by infringement

    • This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).
    • Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?
    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
