As the title states, my wife just rang and she got busted twice by a fixed camera for speeding within ten minutes of each other (South Australia obviously). The first one she said she was doing roughly 10km over the limit (in a 50 zone) and the second one she was doing roughly 20km over the limit (again in a 50 zone). How much of a fine can she expect for this breach of the law?

I need to budget for it :)

Cheers

expect anywhere from around $400 up to $700 mate.....how unlucky getting done twice in 10 minutes.....but thats the price you pay for speeding....unfortunate but its the law...so yeah expect a hefty one coming soon in your mailbox mate...there will also be a big dent in the demerit points for her

goodluck and hope its a small amount

its about $204 for 60 in a 50 zone that again for 20kph over but also add another 80$ my guestinateguestimate is $488. Personally i would take her keys off her :)

yeah just over a year ago mine was 57 in a 50, $197 from memory.

Isnt it 15k over the 1st bracket pretty sure you in new territory with the 2nd fine.

hold on let me get this straight, she gets done by 1 and then speeds up more ;)

i recommend getting her a car with a low rear license plate and a tow bar :)

i just paid 201 bucks for a speed camera fine i was 10 ks over this was only a few weeks ago .

i was rushing the dog to the vet after he ate ratsack . so im happy the wear that one dog made a full recovery im pleased to say

my piece of paper says $290 + $20 levy and that was for in a 50 zone

but no one knows the speed , fine says "exceed speed in built up area" and that was from a patrol car , not a camera ;)

my mate got done twice in 10 minutes 6 months ago and lost his license cause he was on his P's

lol see this is what i find funny. All they bang on about is speed kills yet everyone in this thread has exceeded the speed limit and is still alive...

10 - 20 k's tom3h? more like 170 km over the limit.

    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.

    • This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.
    • Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.
