Thanks

I wouldn't think so, unless it is work related you would have to get an exemption, correct me if I'm wrong.
Better start saving for a car like that if you're 15!![]()
Also, the search function and google are your friend.
No you cant. In QLD, no forced induction, no v8s, max power 200kw.
It will be your first car. Buy a crapped out VN and practice in it. When you stop hitting stuff and breaking things, then spend some money on a decent car.
You have to have your learners for 3 years in QLD??
no its 2 yrs 200hrs but it will take longer for me my mum works a lot she drives taxis. i can only drive on mondays and tuesdays

Not really. The engines compression is too low to be N/A, it would run like an absolute dog. Plus you would have to change heaps of stuff, like the wiring, the ECU and BCM, etc, its just not worth it.
Buy a VN or VS or something and drive that for a few years until your off your L's and P's and then invest in a nice V8 or something.
As much as you think you are/will be a good driver, you aren't, get a few years under your belt and then do what you want.

In vic you can get an exemption for most supercharged V6 models if you have a good driving record but not sure about other states. It would be worth looking into though, you don't want to drive a crappy VN around for 4 years so you may as well try and get something decent (if you can afford to buy it outright that is!)
only a few more days until school holidays is over folks!
lol you could have found all the answers on Queensland transport website.
oh and sucked in with the 200hrs lol! it only used to be 100 haha

Might wanna learn to drive first then think bout a powerful car.
Get a learners car (you will scrape and damage it and cheaper for insurance etc) then upgrade when LEGALLY you can

Im ####ing sick of dumbass P-Platers coming on here and trying to find out how they can get around the ####ING ROAD RULES by driving Supercharged this, or putting an exhaust on and wanting to know if it's still legal. You should all know the ####ing rules so quit ####ing coming on here, wasting peoples time because you're too impatient to wait 3 years or whatever and drive it legally. Learn2Drive before you start wanting to drive mega-mangtastic cars.
####. Off.
And I thought 18 years old with 120 hours was stupid..
I'm not bright on the P laws, isn't it a power:weight ratio somewhere? Just throw a bunch of heavy s*** in your boot and say it's permanent![]()

I got my L's at 15 and 9 months, and my P's on my 16th birthday. Full licence on 17th birthday. There were no restrictions on P's except you couldnt exceed 100kmh. Any car was ok, no worries.
My daughter just turned 16, she has 200 hrs and a year on L's before she gets P's, and she will be 19 before she gets a full licence and is allowed to drive some of our cars at all..
Damn I feel old lmao
