They no longer do E-class licenses, the "Double or Nothing" rule has taken over. They give you a full license, but youllse a demerit point within 12 months you'll lose your license for double the original amount of time.

I'm not sure if you can do it on P plates because if you lost your licence while on Ps, you have to resit your practical test before getting your license back.

i lost my license a few months ago (have 3 1/2 weeks before i can go for my L's again) on my P-plates, was on green P's aswell...You have to reapply for your L's, so sit the first test, the 30 questions one, then your driving examination, then the HPT then, you have your P's back.

If you lose your license for 3 months, and gain any demerit points during that period(3 or 6 months typically depending on the offence. 3 months for general loss of licence, 6 months for reckless) then your suspension will double (so 6 to 12months etc).

Incorrect....

Damn, news to me though just checked and saw this 'good behaviour period' as outlined here

http://www.dpi.wa.gov.au/licensing/yourlicence/15639.asp

I'd rather lose my license for 3 months, then get all my points back so I won't have to stress for 9 months. Considering the lack of TEGS on the road, you'd just be unlucky to be nabbed for driving without a license.

I've been told pleading your case in person to the DPI can lead to e-plates. dont quote me on that though, was told about it a couple of years ago.

I just got a letter saying I can only get 3 more demerit points before losing my license, and it outlined the whole double or nothing thing as well... sigh.

dont have to do the hpt mate, i lost my license in oct and only got around to getting it back a month ago.

I passed the theory on friday and practical on a saturday but they dont process it until mondays, i thought i had to do the hpt, so i was driving round on monday shit scared of getting a 9month driving without a license suspension. But when i got to the dpi on monday arvo they said yeah all good go for it, I was like wtf and they told me you only ever have to do the hpt once.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
