Sucks to be you: I lost a serious amount of points all at once, served the min. New law changes I guess.

Good luck on hard ship, I had a lawyer do up projected earnings, loss of potential income pled a license is needed, no license, no job, no job no income and that I would sue for the loss of earnings.

No dice.

In saying this, im a C*nt with shocking history

No point in me applying for another hardship order. It would get knocked back no doubt since I don't meet any of the criteria for it lol. Not gunna bother appealing anything just trying to find a place to move out to on the coast as soon as I can. No point in wasting time f**king around with courts may as well just get it over n done with. Every place I've enquired about so far has 1 or 2 applications pending so they're most likely gone. Josh find me a 1 bedroom unit on the Gold Coast. Needs to be walking/cycling distance to Cavill Ave.

Thats bad! Take the time off and save up for the mods to come I suppose. Thats what I'll do instead of selling the car. Unless you really want to or have to... I wouldnt sell mine.

can't you use spers? When I had over 1500 worth of fines I didnt pay it before the due date went to the court house paid 1/4 of the total and then paid the rest off in installments... Somebody has already mentioned this hey... Damn

Does it have to be a 1beda for you on your own or could you live in shared accom?

If you wana do shared accom I might be able to hook something up . . . .

will be using spers but its not the cost of the fine that's the problem it's the cost of the loan on the car while the car isn't being used. I may as well sell it and be debt free for a year. Most likely I will be keeping the car though. Inspecting a place tomorrow that's $200pw like 10 min walk from work. See how we go.

Overtaking a semi and 4 other cars going up the hill through Canungra. I was in the overtaking lane but as I got to the top the highway patrol car came over the crest and got me. :wave: 121km/h in a 70 zone. $933 fine and 8 points.

IF the cop got you just as he came over the crest of the hill how far away from him were you ? I thought that the minimun distance had to be 200m for the mobile radar/lidars and it had to be on a straight road ie not over hills round corners from side streets etc. etc.

If this was case then I woudl be fighting it. They are not unfaultable and their equipment does have certain flaws in it. Who says it was tested properly before use ? or ther calibration equipment was faulty ? Anyone of these instances could and can be grounds to have a case thrown out or reduced, leaving you with a liscence and no suspention.

I wouldnt be just paying hte fine up especially since it means you loose your liscence. If you think that you cant win these sort of cases then think again..... Go look at the police hand book and find out what they are required to do one might be suprised ......

probably 30ish metres away when he came over the crest. the road is a big corner as well so I might have a case but I really don't have the time or the energy to fight it especially when the odds are against me. My driving record is pretty shit so I don't think it would change much. I'm over it now anyway. Will most likely be keeping the car and living on the Gold Coast. I'm actually pretty excited to be moving out n shit lol :wave:

Woah... all the way down the coast. You're getting serious.

Go on the for sale section. I always see a couple Z32 on sale when I browse the latest thread section. Hope everything turn out well.

Hows the convoy going?

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
