Ouch, bummer mate :D

A friend of mine got done for letting his registration lapse a few years ago, and he got RAPED by fines...

As doughboy said, you get an unregististered car fine, AND a no third party insurance fine (because it's impossible to have 3rd party for an uninsured car), and as far as I remember the fines were pure extortion :)

Good luck mate...

A friend of mine was once caught driving her Mother's car, unbeknownst to her, her Mother had let the rego lapse, but it was my friend who copped the fines. They were fairly hefty, I remember them being somewhere around $1200 in total, but my memory on it is hazy now.

Out of interest, did you know the car was unregistered when you drove it?

tex i did know the car was register because i sold my car and needed a transport so i borrow my friend unregister car for 2 weeks '

i thought i was invincible since i never got pull over before

Well, no doubt at the risk of being called a wanker by some on here, I'd like to point out how stupid knowingly driving around in an unlicensed vehicle is - the inconvenience you saved yourself by driving your mate's car could have been well and truly offset by the massive problems you'd have encountered, if say, for example, you hit a pedestrian. You wouldn't have been insured for the injuries inflicted upon that person, and in order for them to be compensated (assuming they survived of course) they'd need to sue you, and you'd probably lose everything you own.

Something to think about. Public transport's not so bad. Neither is an $800 fine, in relation to the above scenario...

Dude im glad to hear you have learnt something from this as it seems few younger people ever do. It's good to know you learnt something from what was, in the grand scheme of things, no real big problem. You lose a little money but its just money.

Unfortunately a lot of the time we hear on this board of younger people only learning their lessons after writing off two cars. And in some of those circumstances they dont even learn then.

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
