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?

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
