Anyone know anymore about this?

Heard on the radio that yesterday a 17 year old (on his P's) got caught doing 170km/h on the Tuggeranong parkway.

Lost his licence and got slapped with a $1500 fine !!

They only said that the 17 year old was driving a high horse power car, no mention of it being an import etc which is good !!

An 18-year-old provisional (P-plate) licensed-driver found his lunchtime speeding hijinks in a new V8 sedan expensive in more ways than one today.

Plainclothes detectives on patrol in an unmarked police car on the Tuggeranong Parkway clocked the P-plated driver at speeds of up to 170km/h before intercepting him and pulling him over shortly before 1pm.

Investigating officers said the teen driver, off from college at lunchtime, was issued with a traffic infringement notice which cost him $1515.

"He has also lost his license," said Senior Constable Dennis Apps.

that kind of speed(the first thing) happens all the time in sydney.

i have 2 friends that have been done 172KM in 90 zone

and 155km in 80 zone

and they were on red p`s without p plates on the car and with no manual licence(auto only)

they got a $1700 fine but only lost the p`s for 5 months.....

Ha, so the guy was from Tuggers college? That's pretty funny. I know a guy who tried to speed in his mini in the same area. Got up to 130km/h or so, but he didnt get caught. Quite an achievment for a 1 litre engine :P

      I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road.

      That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...

      Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
