Driving out of class? not sure what the penalty is but one of my mates got done for driving out of class when riding a big bike on his small bike license, didn't get kaned so I don't think it was that huge a fine/penalty.. or I could be completely wrong!

yeah thats what he told me but i said its diff with cars cause auto is totaly diffrent to manule:\ where as motos are pretty much the same

I've heard of different fines from different people, ranging from being let off, to copping a fine close enough to driving without a license.

Tell your mate to get his manual license, problem solved.

I had my auto and needed my manual for work, assessor told me I suck at manual, couldnt shift for shit and counted how many times I stalled, he told me I could have it because he knew I'd get practice driving for work.

Dont tell me your auto only ten four :)

Devoooo.

Id run with driving out of class.

Same as when your ride a motorbike when you only have a car liscense.

You are liscensed to be on the road just not for that particular class of vehicle.

2 points for out of class.

You also lose 2 points for poor spelling and grammar.

Mr keets

so you know of someone geting pulled up and only losing 2 points for driving out of class or just herd about it?

Skyryan, I love your picture, keep watching him thinking he's going to attack my monitor and steal my cold and flu tabs...

"Manual" Enough said :)

Sure that Mr Keets is right, 2 points. My brother got stung for it a few years ago. Not sure if the rules would have changed since then.

I wouldnt drive a car out of class unless it was just a one off time. The penalty might not be that big but remember you would have no insurance at all in the case that you crashed (which would be pretty likely if it was your daily)

A good friend got done..it was a few years ago, they could have made it more by then.

Guy at work said his mate bought an auto Skyline cos he only had an auto license, then converted to it to manual before he got his auto license. Now, whenever he gets pulled over, he puts an "auto-look-alike" cover over his gear knob so they think it's auto. Worth a shot.

Not if you get into a smash, hit a pedestrian etc.

CTP Insurance is void, and if youve ever spoken to a personal injury lawyer youll find yourself facing a LARGE bill.

+1 on this.

It's all sweet and dandy until you hurt someone, the DPI throws the ball back to you and whoever you injured gets to take your ass to court for as much money as they see fit.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
