All good I know it's cop bait but I wouldn't of gotten it if I didn't get the exemption, not concerned so much about cops though just insurance and they've said it's all good as long as Vicroads says so. Am loving it more and more everyday, lots of kinks to sort out engine wise though...

All good guys I've learnt my lesson with my first car the VLT, tried to do a loophole in the law and cop's let me off (Insurance was another story), got written off and found not at fault but scared the bajeezus out of me, now I have a work exemption to drive this so insurance is fine with that. Absolutely in love with this car I don't even care about the power it's just the sound for me I think, I've missed intercooled turbo's thats for sure :P Can't wait for a track day! I think what they say is right though you don't really learn until it happens to you or someone close to you, I came close enough for me to re-consider how I drive every second of every day.

Edit: Have realised it's almost a twin of PM-R33 without the carbon mods and such he has.

just curious too know how you were granted an exemption on such a 'typical hoon car' with those modicfications, plates etc...

My understanding was that for a work exemption, something like a v8 ute would in some cases be approved for a job that involves heavy loads etc..

i was rollin in the 32 with a work exemption...

Hook me up with your advans miguelone

They look alright in the photos but really they're in pretty poor condition. Huge guter rash, polished lip is all pitted & they have a bit of paint bubbling from corrosion on the spokes. Still they only cost me $200 though.

There was a set on eBay in the exact same sizes as mine(17x8 +35 17x9 +38) last week but it looks like they're gone now.

Will give you $201 for them :P

*discreet point to my sig@ both dylaan and miguelone*

:D

I'm kicking myself because I know of someone who sold a set with tyres for $400. I'll let you know if I want them when I get my tax money back

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
