Sigh. My "not all p platers are idiot drivers" campaign is going horribly. thanks mate.

Hay guys i would not call myself a crap diver nor a good 1, i did pass my manual P's with ease..

Got another question for u guys what would happen if i was caught by the police driving a high powered vechile apart for the than the fine and 3 demerit points ? One of my mates said that they would take my lisence straight away ? would they ?

thanks

Are you still considering doing it?

Holy shit some people just dont take a hint.

DONT DO IT!

Click the link in my post above, that was someone's first drive of a GTR aswel. Got enough cash to cover something like that?

To answer your latest question, you'll lose your licence, have a police record which will bite you in the ass EVERY time you get pulled over in the future, risk the car's safety (if the cop claims you were "street racing" they can crush the car. No matter who owns it), not be able to get your licence back for an extended period of time etc

Maybe you should take it for a drive and get caught. I bet the lesson would be learnt then. Your mate would learn a lesson aswel when the cops start defecting the gtr while you're trying to talk your way out of the driving charge.

A legal option is to take it to a trackday.

You'll need a track licence, prebooked trackday, helmet, proper clothes and the gtr has to pass scruitineering.

Budget about $450 for all of that plus whatever wear the car cops and a shitload of petrol.

Although the car will be subject to a lot more stress than driving around the block, so your mate may retract the offer.

Here's another "first time gtr driver" (seriously, just like the link above the owner is known on these forums)

Oh look, a p plate.

It was a very easy 3rd/4th gear piece of road as you can all see.

The car was beyond fixing, so it was stripped then cut in half.

This type of P-plater....... is "P" for "P"OOFTER!

SERIOUSLY.... you still dont get it do you? P'platers problem is that...not only are they inexperienced, they are over confident with the "oh i finally can drive...ill show you all!" attitude.. thats when shit hits the fan... and the pics shown above gives you ONE example out of, MANY!

i dont mean to sound blunt, but your going around in circles here....

you know what the BEST thing is for you???? TO just try it.................. let us know how you go.............

just do it.... ok?

you must be the type that is really thick and never learn or Know unless you try.........

keep us posted

show us any pics too.....

Hay guys got a question or you i have just recently got my P's (red) i am asking if i drove my mates GTR r32 would he or i get in trouble if pulled over by the cops, with my mate sitting in the pasenger seat ?

If you got your license in a state without the car restrictions (like WA) then you can legally drive it, otherwise you are VERY screwed when they catch you & your mate will probably get a massive lecture for "letting you drive" from the cops as well.

Especially true during the public holiday times.

Edited by Mayuri Krab
not every single one of them...... but statistics have shown that MOST are.......

why do you think these restrictions took place?... they didnt do it for the love of god you know...

theres a reason for everything

no matter what anyone says...either way P-platers lack the experience on the roads.. and its not a good mix with an unexperienced driver with a high powered car, end of story.

Oh yes, i agree with all that, what i don't like is the whole "p platers are so horrible, but Anyone who has an open license must be 10 times better!" attitude. everyone under the age of 30ish was a P plater once. A persons level of maturity doesn't automatically go up the instant they walk out of the transport department office with an open licence in hand. Idiot P plater drives are idiot drivers. Idiot open licence drivers are also idiot drivers. The type of licence you have doesn't come into it.

Also fail to see how people are going to become experienced driving a high powered vehicle if they can't actually drive one when they think of themselves as still learning. They'll just crash on their first drive in one at 20 years old instead of 17.

The thing is though, by the time you hit your 20's, in my experience at least, you tend to grow out of trying to impress chicks or your mates with your shameless, silly simple minded shenanigans. Especially after witnessing a few accidents where speed was a factor.

There were some stats in today's paper about the percentage of people on their P's here who made up the total of 73 cars impounded here in the last year, and it was over 70% IIRC.

I'm really glad I didnt get my Skyline when I was 18, cause I know I would have treated it like a piece of shit, but I tend to agree that a blanket ban on ALL V8s, turbos etc is ill founded, idiotic and insane.

Mainly due to the fact that the misguided, malevolent miscontents now just pour litres of oil down everywhere and do 'farken burnouts' in V6 Falcodores, and well who gives a stuff if your VN V6 does a bearing, or fries its rings, cause a new motor is around $500 from your friendly wrecker.

The amount of new P platers finding nice supra's to molester due to not being able to drive anything really fast also worries me.

Sad to see....By any chance did this one occur in the Liverpool/Moorebank area a few years ago ?

I remember seeing one identical to this up for sale at Mindaree auctions

read what Bozodos said..... when your 20, your alot more mature than you were at 17

giving a high performance car to a 20 year old is better than a 17

high performance car for any inexperiened driver is not the way to go........

Agreed

I found that I drive more carefully when there are people around or in the car, as I don't want any extra unwanted attention.

You get too much unwanted attention from douche bags screaming "do a burn out!!!" just driving normally pass by, don't need to make it worse by doing it.

Finally I don't see the point for a burn out, bloody waste of tires (& $; might as well just throw $ down the toilet) & the burnt rubber smell makes me dizzy :D

yeah well this will make you more "sad"...

no matter how fast he was going, wouldve been Slower than that..... "Dousset" or watever his name was... 20 yr old guy from the Central coast (EVL R34)

Smashed in Sylvania, parted in Kirrawee.

Hay guys i did drive the gtr on my L's just down the street ... and when will i be able 2 legaly drive a turbo car on green P's ?

you should not be allowed to drive on any coloured P's under the new law under any circumstance unless exempted.....

the people you see with P's are either :

1.) breaking the law....

2.) Got the car + Liscence just before the new law kicked in 2006 and is exempt.

but by now....the people who did that shouldve moved onto the full liscnce...so dunno whats going on there.

or

3.) people love the P's ..5 - 6 points or watever it is.. and just keep renewing thier P's plates and not wanting to move onto full liscence just to piss new P'platers off..............

4.) got some sort of bogus exemption to allow them to drive the car i.e a mechanic apprentice or something along the lines.

(which would probably change one day)

so its either 1 of the 4.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
