my mate has been cought doing many things while already has lost his licence. he got really lucky that the judge knew he had some sort of future so suspended him for 5 years. if he was find even sitting in a drivers seat (even without the keys) he was going to jail.

he got it into his head after MANY times in court and fines, solicter fee's and lossing his licence for quite a few years and got one of his work mates to pick him up to go to work.

why not split the costs of petty with a work mate to take you to work. this will be cheaper for you in the long run and even if you had a licence this would still be cheaper in running costs.

with what i know what could happen to you, dont drive without a licence.

YOU SAY:

i cant appeal coz ive lost my license before (for actions on my behalf), and appealed for it back and got it.<

Who told you that you can't appeal? Even without reading the ACT legislation I can say with 99.999% certainty no State or Territory disqualifies an appeal action just because another unrelated prosecution was overturned on appeal. Every civil or criminal matter is dealt with as a NEW matter, prev history only kicks in for sentencing determination.

GET YOURSELF SOME PROPER LEGAL ADVICE - pronto

once you have lost your licence while on your P plate restrictions and have appealed it once before to get 1 point back (and this can go for full licenced too, i'll have to look into it) you are NOT permitted to appeal for another point again, unless quite a few years has past since your last appeal (i cant remember the exact number of years but ill find out).

he has all rights to fight the conviction which he has done but he can not appeal for his licence back once he has done it already after a certain period of time has past.

as a p plater ur only entitled to one appeal every 5 years.

so it doesnt matter how many times i keep taking it court the outcome will be the same.

Some people get lucky.

My good mate lost his license for a year - drove for that whole year, got pulled over and caught 3 times but just received fines/warnings. No going to court, nothing.

That might be true, but what if he had hit another car, crippling the driver?

3rd party bodily injury wouldn't have paid out and your mate would've been royally f**ked up.

Just because someone gets away with something doesnt make it a good idea. If someone gets away with murder, does this make it ok for everyone? I don't think so.

it all depends on how much you wanna risk it?

i personally wouldnt drive with no licence, you're asking for trouble.

i had an ex who would drive unlicensed, i dont know if she ever got caught? but it would've been big trouble because she lost her licence when she was driving on her own on her L plates.

the situation sucks, but it could suck way worse than it already does?

if you were that unlucky to loose your licence like you said, i wouldnt push your luck any further by driving with no licence.

Spot on there Hotwire....if you end up crippling someone for life mate you....then you truely will be in the worse situation....dont risk it as many people have mentioned before, not worth it.....

I had a mate who thought the same thoughts that your having atm....drive disqualified in a Barina and he will get away with it.....well all it takes is a lapse in judgement and it has now cost him a shitloads then he though....he was involved in a smash and pretty much wrote off someones newish commy....so he had to pay up for a brand new car....$30k is still 30k at the end of the day.....

but you CAN fight a charge, claiming the offence to be incorrect.

every 5 years, you can lose your license, accept the fact, then apply to have your license back.

different scenarios

isnt this what i already said :blink:

Given the recent events and bad image import drivers had already ... it would be stupid, stupid, stupid to drive without a licence. Sorry, can't put any sugar on that one. Don't do it. At the very least, if you don't get caught and have no prangs, you'll still be a loser imo.

LOL at this thread, sif cops don't troll these boards.

Even if you don't get picked out by a cop whilst unlicenced and behind the wheel, you'd better pray you don't as much lay a scratch on a 3rd party whilst driving cause you'll get a visit from a CTP Investigator who'll turn over his findings to cops........you won't be the 1st risk taker that I've seen do time and you can expect to lose your job, house and future earning capacity with a record against your name.

Get smart and move into a cheap flat near work!!

60kmh limit on pt wakefield road? and you got done for 107kmh right hmm

perhaps it was when there was roadworks around? i know they still have some areas 60kmh speed limit...

other than that it go from like 80kmh/90kmh, then further down 110kmh, it's a big f**king road

As stated elsewhere in this fred, get a pushbike, leave heaps early, deal with it and move on. And no, I dont care that you live 30 minutes drive from work, thats still push bike-able.

other than that it go from like 80kmh/90kmh, then further down 110kmh, it's a big f**king road

on that note, pretty sure as a P-plater it is a breach of P's to go over 100kmh by any amount, not that I care or know if who ever posted that initially is a P plater.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything 
    • 🏆 Skyline Supremacy Meets Mount Panorama Magic 🏆 Join SAU NSW as we take the long way to Bathurst, the home of GTR greatness. Saturday 30th August 2025 7:00AM Meeting Hanna Park North Richmond 7:30AM Departure Cruise Via Bells of Line Road 9:00AM Arrival to Stop 1: Golden Poplars Meadow Flat 9:45AM Arrival to Final Destination: Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit Meet Location: Hanna Park North Richmond Stop 1: Golden Poplars Meadow Flat Final Destination: Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit   *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
