GTSR22 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 oh ok so it is 125 kw per tonne at the flywheels ok thanks for that Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/31238-power-to-weight-laws-p-plates/page/5/#findComment-631853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammus Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 is that some sort of virus?? course not. scan it with whatever before running it, if you want. it's just a simple program which does the math to work out if the figures you put (litres, kW, tonnes) in are over 125kW/tonne or 3.5l/tonne. there's even a skyline in it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/31238-power-to-weight-laws-p-plates/page/5/#findComment-631889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTR-34 Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 well yes i got a powerful car but i do obey the laws coz i have to now otherwise im pretty screwed. I was driving my car when i first got my license and pretty much copz had no idea on what power a R34 GTR had. It wasnt listed so i was all good until some copper decided to go research on it and then add it to the restriction. So i practically only got 1 month to drive the car and got pulled over about 5 times in this month. That copper rang me saying if i was caught driving the car again i would face a 2 year banning of my license, i still dont know if its true or not, but its been a year and i have only took it out once on the road by myself then and i had too for special pursposes. Now its just stuck in the garage which i look at every morning wishing to drive it out. But farken cant... Got another 2 years left bloody hell cant i be 21... Farken spewin...I just drive it at the dragz , the only place i can legally...hehe Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/31238-power-to-weight-laws-p-plates/page/5/#findComment-632133 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AutoTrust Posted January 7, 2004 Share Posted January 7, 2004 GTR 34 get yourself a job in the automotive industry, even part time sales, then get your boss to put in to vic roads to get a dispensation for you to drive high powered cars as a requirement for your job. It's worth a try, I know mechanics that have done it.

Blade Posted April 27, 2004 Share Posted April 27, 2004 Man this is an old thread lol! and to add to it...i dont really think police care about the power to weight ratio as long as you drive sensibly and not get noticed you should be fine Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/31238-power-to-weight-laws-p-plates/page/5/#findComment-803654 Share on other sites More sharing options...
