They probably let you off after they realised that your car has a similar power to weight ratio as a VZ SV6 Commodore

The only person I can think of who I'd be comfortable in a turbo on their P's is that little champ that comes to Texi who's on his L's. I'm not saying he wouldn't take risks on the road, just that he knows how to get out of shit when his car goes sideways.

Requesting a thread lock, I think this has gone on long enough. Long story short, if you're on your P's and driving a turbo, you deserve to get f**ked over by the police. You might think it's unfair, but it's the rules, and as Corinne has said, stats back it up. I got my liner at 22, and it scared the living shit out of me for quite some time.

I'm a 20 year old P Plater, I drive a POS 94 Falcon with 18's and a sound system, and I constantly get stopped by the cops because of all the other morons on P plates that drive around doing burnouts trying to be tough. If it wasn't for all the kids that just got their licence doing stupid shit, I'd be able to drive around in peace.

But I guess trying to be a hero is more important than your wallet and your freedom that a car gives you.

I'm quite content to just putt around in my falcon until I get off my P plates and can buy an R34 GT-T that I can take to a track. There's a time and a place for everything, but racing through a busy town isn't one of them.

Clue up fools, if you want a turbo car, work for it and wait until you can drive it legally, not risk your life and everyone elses just because your mates think you cool.

I was going to buy a turbo car on my p's...

But I didnt, instead I bought a BMW E30 after I got my greens...

Why? Its a stroker, I spent time building the thing and driving it through as many twistie roads as I could...

It could beat stock wrx's and r32 gtst's and one time beat a VE SS ute up a hill..

I guess with a 2.7L stroker with a hot cam, and being 1000kg rwd is of an advantage,

Here are some pics of it, I still miss it even though I sold it afew months ago!

I did alot of stupid shit in it, but never got defected or anything, just the random search the car and warnings if I did something stupid. i guess I was lucky and cops do appreciate a classic...

Anyways point being said is I bought a Manual RWD car and taught myself how to drive manual in it, and learnt how to fix the car and modify it myself, had a whole blog to doing shit to the thing... I only sold it because I am 2 months away from my FULLS and will buy a Turbo car now, after learning how to drive a manual rwd car properly...

So do yourself a favour, buy a light rwd manual car, learn to drive it properly, so then when you do get your rwd turbo, you dont jump from a FWD N/a to something you cant handle...

Hmmm, indeed, this thread has gone long enough.

If you haven't already noticed, no-one thinks you're "cool" if you STILL want to flout the laws (or pretend they don't exist or apply to you) by choosing to drive a turbocharged or otherwise restricted car while you're on your P's.

Why is that so hard to understand?

      Starting again

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
