What vicroads know so do the police. It will be listed as a turbo afaik.

There have been many threads on this so I'll be blunt.

You're an idiot for taking the risk. Just buy an NA and wait likE every other person has to. Hell I put up with a pulsar for 3 years n bought the gtr on my full licence.

as i've told every other p plater.. (coming from someone that got an N/A skyline to a turbo one..) and is still on P's.. ............ GET A TURBO. you wont regret it

your such a dickhead to put it bluntly

just because you want to drive a turbo on p's illegaly doesnt mean others do to

recommoned a overpowered car to an inexperienced driver.... fair chance something bad will happen, wether its an accident or licence issue

lol i dunno about the inexperienced component as you can stack a commodore very easily/ doesn't need to a skyline, its the driver!

as for getting a turbo anyway is just STUPID, most officers know exactly what to look for in a skyline as they are far from rare. Apart from that u may be selling your turbo quickly and buying a bus ticket after you loose your licence lol or have your insurance claim voided!

for the record i got pulled over (ages ago) under the old power to weight ratio rules and still got fined in an R33 T. Make u relise that some cops know what they are doing :) don't let these guys persuade u to get a turbo.

But commodores usually have quite a lot of power for n/a cars.. and shit handling. I remember turning 18 and having to use my brothers VT to drive to work one day, i was driving a 1.6L rover back then. Couldnt stop wheel spin in the 3.8L hunk of junk.

I think it does come down to inexperience in driving a high powered car. People these days should learn to drive n/a smaller engine cars rather than larger engine or turbos. Non the less good luck on finding a nice car to this guy! I am super happy with my R34 n/a. Just be patient and in time you will get what you really want, practice driving more, don't think your king of the road and it will all be good =]

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
