Hey guys was just wondering about the Driving laws up there, I'm currently in Victoria and most probably will be moving back to brissy at the beginning of next year but Victorian law states that international students are allowed to drive on their international licenses until they complete their course...this has treated me very well as I have been able to drive my skyline and drink to 0.05 at the early ages of 20 and I dont have to deal with whole the point system. However I have just realized I cannot find the same laws in the Queensland transport laws so I was just wondering if any of you guys know about this? Hopefully I'll start seeing you guys on cruises by the beginning of next year

Ring them up. But the time I got pullover for redlight (during uni days), they only gave me a fine without any points deduction when I showed them my Singaporean license. I've since kept the license with me all the time.

from my experience working with guys on international licenses, i believe you have a 3month grace period to roll it over, however apparently its as simple as filling out a form at Queensland transport

as for when the 3month period starts i'm not sure sorry, and whether you go onto P laws or open laws i am unsure also

give qld transport a call :)

thats my 2cents :O

You only require a QLD licence if you are a permanent resident. Once you gain PR you have 3 months grace period to apply for a QLD licence otherwise you will be regarded as an unlicenced driver. You can drive on your international licence as an intl student. This is from my previous experience but the laws may have chged so just double chk.

international students should give me money

then i will like them

Hahah thanks for all the input guys, I'll investigate a little more but if I get accepted for my transfer from Monash to UQ i'll probably see you guys soon. Hopefully in some sort of GTR. But Col if you see the prices we pay for uni you'd be surprised if most international uni students have any money left!

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
