hey guys, im soon to get my license back, early august.. and have to decide whether to choose 3 months extra to refresh my 12 points, or go on a 12 month option with 1 demerit point, im definetly buying a R34 GTR , and a daily

but after opinions on what would you guys do? if i take the 1 point il be nervous to drive anywhere, doesnt matter how cautious you are you can get done for anything these days

but i also just want to drive again.

or does anyone know someone in vicroads to clear the option and give me 12 points? for $$ ofcourse

opinions/thoughts

I was in your exact situation 5 months ago......

lets just say I get my license back in 1 month now instead of having it for the last 2 months....

And I don't drive like a dick, never been done for high speed, DUI etc etc and Never been done in my GT-R take the three.

You'll still take the 1pt. If you were stupid enough to lose that many points, you're stupid enough to think you can go a year without a ticket. Which of course, you're wrong. ;)

When I lost mine I had a maximum of 4 points, easy to lose 4, one offense really.

So how come you dont get full points after you have already lost your license? I thought that the 1 point or 3 month option was only if you were about to loose your license, thats what happened to me a few years ago and I just took the 3 month option, 3 months isnt much really to wait, just think of it as a time to save money for your gtr.

3 months all the way anth. Sometimes a cop will find an excuse to make you lose the 1 point. You can be a perfect driver and still get done for it lol. Better of with 12 than 1 and only to wait approx 90 days.

Not long now before you find your bayside 34R :)

Will be speaking to ya soon

I'd take the 3 month option. I'm a pretty cautious driver and try to obey the limits, but occasionally I'll drift a couple of k's over and that's all it takes to get flashed. I've literally had like 3 spending fines in the last couple of years all 3-4ks over the limit.

I got done when I was picking my car up from Victoria for speeding (1st offence).

they managed to transfer it to NSW and I'm sitting here for about 4 months w/o licience. I believe I had a 1 point option if I chased it up, but I'd still rather sit it out.

If you get a cop on a bad day, or slip up in any way for that year, you'll need to sit it out anyway.

Escpeccially in Victoria, the f**king Nanny state, the missus and I got fines for doing 5km over and lost two points. cool.

good luck not loosing 1 point in 12months. especially that youb guys have the 1point fine for like 5kms over LOL

seriously, the statistics show the a majority of people who go for that option loose the 1 point.....just make sure if you do opt for the 1point over 12months, you drive like a friggin grandma

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
