I met up with this girl that I met through a mutual friend last night for a few drinks in the city. We grabbed dinner at Longrain. Great place for a date because you can't make a booking, you have to turn up and wait for a table and there's a nice bar on the other side of the restaurant where they make some awesome ****tails. Knowing I was driving, I only had one ****tail before dinner and then alternated Vodka/Sodas with glasses of water... Food was great as usual and had a great night... No details you horny biatches!!! :slap:

So anyway, I was driving her home after dinner and got hit by an RBT on New South Head Road in front of Rushcutters Bay Park... I though I'd be fine because I paced myself all night and wasn't feeling drunk at all... Just eager to get back to her place.

I lit up the breathalyzer with a 0.12 reading, which apparently puts me in the "Mid Range" offence... I have no idea what I can do about this :( I'm like the biggest advocate of drink driving out of all my friends, always saying that only retards drive whilst drunk, but I honestly didn't feel drunk at all!!! ;)

The officer said that the mid-range reading comes with an automatic 6 month suspension and possible 9 month gaol term :rofl::D;):(

Fark guys, please help me out... Does anyone know of any good DUI Lawyers? This is obviously my first offence :(

OMFG that sucks man, are you sure you didn't have like bits of alcohol in your mouth and blow that into it? 0.12 is pretty hight considering you didn't think you drank that much...

thats seriously farked man...

sorry to hear it - definatly seek out a lawyer, probably can't get you off but, may be able to get it reduced a little.

Merli my mate got done in Vic he blew really high because the alcohol was fresh in his breath as he had just finished a bourban can before getting in the car.

They took him to the station, waited 20mins and breathoed him again.. and he was like 0.02

did they allow you to wait this time and breatho you again? you might have something there, depending on when your last drink was.

Sorry to hear mate :(

i just had to read that it was posted by merli, looked at the calender n shook my head in such dissapointment

u could have at least held off for half the day :(

"The officer said that the mid-range reading comes with an automatic 6 month suspension and possible 9 month gaol term "

please, i somehow dont think this happens when ppl blow this all the time

or else the gaol would be full of drunken loonies

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
