You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I had the pleasure of meeting Pettit last night. He followed me down Dorset Rd for a bit, then flashed me as I was about to turn off for my friend's house. He and his partner checked out my pod filter, made some jibe about it "sucking in hotter air than normal", then he peered down around my front wheels and the partner said to Pettit that I "was borderline" - I guessed for ride height. Then they let me go. Had they breathalised me they may have got a reading, as around 2 hours prior I had had a single beer. If they did, I reckon they'd have put me through the ringer. And just taken my license on the spot.

Yep, us p platers are treated as if were criminals. Way too many strict rules i dont agree with, some i do though. Im not entirely sure why they are stricter then ever, from what i can see, they went into operation hunt p platers in late 2007-2008. You can see from vids on youtube, its the people who are now in there 30s that made the cops stricter then ever. Hooning was at an all time high around then, from what ive seen in news reports, vids etc, it was so bad they had to introduce these strict rules. Still i never really trust the media, mostly propaganda. According to the media and police, it was the people who are now in there 30s, who screwed this current generation. Thanks!

As a p plater you only start off with 5 points. Your points come back every 3 years if you lose some. You get your full license after being on your p's for 4 years. So what this means is, for 3 years you must not lose your 5 points otherwise youll get your license suspended and youll be reset back to red p's, meaning youll have be on your p plates for 4 years again. Imagine only having 5 points for 3 years. If you cop 2 fines there goes your license. And as you can see, there are all sorts of stupid fines that take away points that shouldnt, example being not displaying p plates = 3 points.

You know what really annoys me the most about this though? Im doing 59 in a 60 zone or 79 in a 80 zone for example. People on there full license do about 5km or so over the limit when theres no police around. Sometimes youll get the jackass who decides to beep because doing the speed limit is too slow for him/her. These people need to realise, we only got 5 points, im not going to cop a 3 point fine for speeding because you want to get home quicker. My dad even admits most people on there full license will get away with going a few km over the speed limit, p plater does it though, end up on a current affair probably. I even asked a cop once why this is the case, hes answer was so we dont end up like the current drivers on the road.

LOL what a load of shit...

Honestly what you've just said there is pretty much a total load of rubbish.

It's all still happening, was and will.

It was nothing to do with people, it was governments just securing the minority group vote due to sensationalist journalism creating a 'increasing problem' of 'hoons' when really nothing had changed... The news outlets were just capitalising on something that was obviously gaining them audience that would listen... Politics kicks in and the fat knees all jerk.

Hell the most senior of Police I've argued with, and had them unable to respond.

They lack the most BASIC concept of what might help to fix the problem and are just focussed on nothing more than a purely reactive type of behaviour.

That's where the problem is coming from.

Gw2, Ima break it down for you reeeal simple like.

P Platers are inexperienced, shit drivers. PERIOD.

This is why you have less points and this is why you get looked at harder by the police.

There is no conspiracy, you just all suck and will continue to suck until you have a few years experience behind you.

This is fact.

I lost my licence 4 times when I was on p's for a total of 19 months, generally for speeding and haven't lost it once since being on full's as I guess I learnt my lesson.

Moral of the story is keep your car legal and don't drive like a dick.

I did get pulled over in the GTR for the 1st time the other day however. He said he just wanted to check to see if my club reg was legit and tried to tell me my car wasn't old enough. Then I went home.

Ah k. Disc issues will definitely do that, exacerbated by any form issues too. Should speak to Dan in the gym section...he has similar issues with discs I think and has found ways around them. If you ever want me to take a look at your form I can always do that :)

      V37 Radiator removal

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic

      If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
