my friend just doing some teaching in the northern territory just got booked for doing 38km over the limit as he went from no speed limit to an 80 zone - prolly to fast to see the sign and the speed wasnt marked on the ground

anyways he got a fine of $160 and lost no points

what would be the norm if he got done in NSW?

He would have a NSW licence. From what I've heard (so don't quote me on this), if you get booked in another state, you don't lose points, but you still have to pay the fine. A friend of mine on his moto was booked in Victoria and he was expecting to lose points, but it never happened.

Good to see people know their road laws!!

Over 35 is instant loss of licence in Vic.

- 25 or over is auto loss of license in Victoria

- used to be like this 5 years ago..... you lose points now in all states (unless the ticket doesnt have points) afaik.

I lived in the Territory for 2 years and I find it very hard to believe there is a spot that goes from unlimited to 80 km/h without a 100 km/h in between.

I got booked doing 66 in a 40 zone up there.  Never left 1st gear.  ****en idiot! (me)

That happened to me while driving my lamborghini diablo sv once to, got doe for 80 in a 60 zone, and told the cop i was still in first gear, so how could i be speeding. :D

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
