Look - you know more about the situation, and with every post a bit more info comes out.

How is anyone going to give solid advice if it's taken nearly 2 pages to get the facts?

Kris knows only as much as the rest of you :P

Will keep it short as on iPhone nismoid correct unless police actually saw you drive then no offence can be prooved, I doubt fine will be issued unless more to this. Also full lic can drive manual even if only had auto to start with. As to drink driving need more than keys in ignition to proove, I had one recently that was blind drunk passed out at wheel at intersection car running in turning lane with car in gear and indicator on and he got off. Sums up the stupid court system and why crime on the rise

Look mate- Who issued the fine??? Name?

Secondly becareful because the officer can say he saw you drive into the parking, and if he visits here then we will do that lol

I was not issued with an on-the-spot fine. I was told something was going to be mailed out.

Didn't catch the name of either of the officers.

So no underage females involved as the only people? :cool:

Irrelevant. I have no comment on the age of my girlfriend other than the fact she is legal :)

I will hold back on a personal comeback I could have used :P

Taken directly from Vicroads:

An automatic transmission restriction will apply if you pass your probationary test in an automatic vehicle. You will be restricted to driving a vehicle with automatic transmission for the duration of your probationary period.

At the end of the probationary period, the A condition will be removed.

The probationary automatic condition may be removed at anytime during the probationary period by passing a driving test in a vehicle with manual transmission.

Permanent A conditions may apply as a requirement due to specific medical reasons.

A breath of fresh air to people who passed their p test in an auto :cool:

Well my Mum just called me (I'm at work) and told me that something has come in the mail from the Knox Police :P

I told her not to open it (because she'll freak) so I'll have to wait til I get home tonight to see what it says.

I hate that sinking feeling... Ugh...

On sub-topic I'd like to point out that 16 and over is quite legal unless you are a guardian, teacher, sports-coach or other formal authority figure in relation to the girl.

Bad luck on the letter...that's a fine :P

I don't know but I feel it my obligation to inform people of the real legal age in Victoria ever since winning a bet with my friends. As I said, sub-topic :P

Won't rule out the warning, but if they can be bothered writing a letter/warning they can be bothered sending you a fine lol. When I got my fine mailed out to me it came straight from the Warnambool police station rather than civic compliance.

huh?

Anyway. I couldn't care less. However how can you expect anyone to give you an answer if 2 pages, details still come out?

If the person is 18 and has a manual license, key info.

If that same person does not have a license, again key info.

    • Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.
    • Almost any ECU would work, from a 30 yr old PowerFC to a new Motec/Autronic. But presumably you want new middle of the road ECU, meaning that you want a Haltech or a Link, most likely. As to which model though? I dunno. I don't keep track of what they have in their current ranges. You don't want a plug in though, because plug ins can start to cause you the same wiring issues that you have to chase up with your stock ECU/loom swaps when an engine transplant is involved. If you use a Haltech (and presumably a Link) you could put the base map for the engine in and drive it around and not even need to "tune" it. It will work just fine. I can't recommend a tuner without a location (and even then I can't recommend many, being as I never use any tuners except myself and my brother-in-law). And not many tuners are happy to remote tune. Maybe they'd be happier doing it for a basically stock setup that just needs to be demonstrated to be working properly. But even then, not being able to be with the car to see what the hell is going on and sort out the inevitable problems that will result from an engine conversion done by an amateur..... unlikely to be enthusiastic about the job. And if you think that just adding 2 wires for the boost sensor is difficult - you don't want to be trying to install and set up an aftermarket ECU. You're going to have to bite down hard on something with either approach.
    • wired everything up and confirmed that the red with white stripe is indeed the fuel pump pin on this harness.
