Wow, just reading this i think my IQ dropped. Im a P plater. I drive a unmodified commodore. However, I have 3 years to build a motor i can drive when im on my opens. Time well spent? I think so. No wonder P platers are a target.
If it wasnt for any innocent deaths, id say bring back natural selection.
i got my licence 6months before the new p plate laws came out hence i was alowed to drive 8's and turbo's! however i knew that with the power that could be made in both and 8 or a turbo i would die or hurt someone else! ill admit i've done some stupid shit but due to the fact they were in a V6 VT tug boat most of the stupid things resulted in nothing but a hurt ego (fishies on dirt road lossed it into a corn paddock) i waited till i was on my opens to get my s/c 6. there is a reason why the government makes the rules not because they want to cramp your style! its so you dont die! do the smart thing and save your coin and get what ever you want once your on ya opens!
i totaly agree with you i'm 19 1.5 yrs into my p's in WA. I have gone sideways on a gravel farm track and a few other UNintended times ie "taking corners to fast" has been part of my learning process
mum was against me driving dads rusty vl pre L's "as it was to powerful for me" but being 6"10 there is not much that i can fit in to on a tight budget with less power i ended picking up my vy cheap @ perth's march '10 hail storm auctions for its "newer design" and has been worth it
not to say vl's are a bad car![]()
Just fyi for all the people brainwashed by the government. You can kill your self just as easily in a corolla.
Welcome to the internet where people have opinions that you might not like
When I was 18 a lot of my mates picking up cheap V8's (VN's, VL's EB's etc) that were 150-170kW and pretty cool cruisers with a bit of grunt. Now since V8's are banned I see young guys are taking out bigger loans and getting 200kW V6 "family cars" which are shitloads faster than the 5L V8's we were driving 8 years ago were. It makes me wonder what the hell the restrictions have achieved.
Contradict yourself much??? Same goes for you...
I was thinking the same thing Sabhaha
LMFAO Dave!!!!
After everything you have said in this thread...Are you ####ed in the head?
Inbreds these days...
Looking over previous threads you have started, you have asked for advice on cheap mods, and now you come up with the idea/funds to supercharge it? Right...
Probably should of done a search before you asked a stupid question, you could of seen what had been said to the other small minded people who have asked the question..
That our laws are a joke, if you are legally a "special person" HOW THE F*** ARE YOU ALLOWED TO TRY FOR A LICENSE?
My 2c but if you (anyone) is deemed unfit for everyday life and such why are you allowed behind a couple of tons of steel at up to 100kph? dangerous much?

Will you stump up and pay the bill to replace my Senator if you slam into the back of it and find your insurance company walks away from you because you were driving a car you weren't licensed to drive???
RRP is just under a hungee for that puppy but hey you got to drive a blown puss box for a while so I guess it might have been worth it
