96 bucks is still cheaper than what I pay for my license in WA, and obviously its not the card that is the 50 dollar cost rise its just license costs going up. How long has it been since any previous license fee rise in QLD?

We're just a bunch of whinging tight asses. :D

It was $55 for five years back in '97

So I heard on the radio there will be a 2 week wait when you renew your licence to get your fancy James Bond licence, and you will get a paper licence to cover the 2 weeks.

SURELY this defeats the purpose? This paper licence will no doubt be stupidly easy to forge, but will have to be accepted as a form of 18+ ID for all the suckers who are waiting for their real licence. Nice one QLD :D

read what it says carefully. this line in particular..

A five-year licence will jump in cost from the current $73.30 to $96.05 next year, and rise to $152.50 by 2014-15, putting Queensland in line with the highest-charging states.

basically it means that we will be on par the states who already charge that much. meaning that we currently get it cheaper than some states.

and at the end of the day, $152.50 for 5 years isn't much. that's only $30.50 a year.

Police will be able to access the digital images of drivers for traffic offences and emergencies but must apply to a justice of the peace if the photo is required for other purposes.

Think that's how it should be read...

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
