I remember posting last year about getting my L's... Now, on towards bigger and better things, but, I have a few questions.

I've payed for my test and filled out the green sheet but;

Do I need to take some extra cash to pay for the license?

Do I need to take all that birth certificate and extra identification up again?

Is there anything in particular i should look out for that the testers tend to focus on etc?

Any help is appreciated :D

It would help if you specified what state you were in. Probably a good idea to post this in a state specific forum.

But yes it costs money, as far as I know the only ID you need is your L's.

As far as what you should look out for, just do everything right. Don't f**k up.

Hope that helps. :D

dont boost it!!!!!!!

lol just drive as if u are with really really old frale lady,and you would want to make her feel very safe, before doing all ur main test, hillstarts, 3 point turns all that just think about the main points of the exercise e.g hillstart indicate right, mirros checks shoulder, dont roll back, or spin the wheels

nerves are what kicked my arse... but once ur rolling it gets a little easier.. good luck and post how u went... what are u driving for the test?

oh and... 2 hands on the wheels when ever possible, lots of mirror and shoulder checks, use handbrake on hills..... and around corners lol jks

good luck mate... just bring teh cash - it cant hurt.

in qld, we only need to bring our L's, as to the licensing

we have an option of like 1year or 3 years and 5/6 years? obviously the 5/6 (cant remember) years option is the cheapest in the long run - so go with that.

just remember to be polite to the examiner ie. say hello, shake hands.

and even if you get an asshole examiner (like i did) just keep calm and do everything so damn good that even he cant find a mistake (like i did) =)

ohh remember to dress nicely for your photo (because i didn't) :D

cheers

eug

Was pretty nervous during the test.. until i found the route we were taking.. happened to be around my area, even ended up going through my street :P Thanks for the help guys :P

oh and yea i passed :)

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
