i got caught speeding last nite, yeah dumb thing i know, but this means loss of licence for me, :alcoholic

my question is, if on the fine the police officer hasn't writtern that the speed was a breach of my p's agreement, which it is, is the fine dismissable?? as they haven't filled out the full details so in essence the fine becomes null???

just checking if anyone knows about this, im gonna see a lawyer on friday to get the full story, :argue:

just due to the new laws if i do loose my licence then after the 6month period, i go back onto my p's for a further 2.5 years :headshot:

I'd say you'll still get that extra point and $50-odd fine.

How fast were you going, out of interest? What road? Lucky they didn't get you for hooning or defect you.

How many times have you been to court before? If you've been a couple of times before, grab a lawyer and see how you go. If you fight and fight, it's generally pretty easy to keep your licence. Some people just prefer the six month suspension to the lawyer fees, etc. At least the suspension will give you a few months to sort your car out.

looks like the missing p plate bit doesn't matter should have been on there but still stop anything, however i can be elected to be prosecuted, and have a chance not to loose points but still pay the fine

its a 50/50 chance with a lawyer fee of $1100

so if i sell my engine i'll be going for it

if i don't go for it it's a loss of licence for prob 6 months and then back on my P's for 2.5 yearsi'd rather an extension on my p's

if it all goes bad then i'll prob sell my skyline as it has cost me a bucket load, just peed of coz i just got ebverything running nicely new engine 180rwkw on non shoot out mode could up the boost and it should put out a nice 200rwkw(think this is my prob to much acceleration power!!!)

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.
