hey everyone. thanks for your replies. i appreciate all your thoughts and advice. even though i am young, i am 18, been driving for a year, so I'm not bad now. And have been driving a little 2 door lancer for that time. It isn't slow, but certainly not fast. well, it can actually go quite fast, it just takes several minutes to get there. 200km/h is the speedo limit and that was achieved on a raceway after about 2 minutes. and i now want to upgrade my car, but there isn't much point "doing up" a 1.5L 4cyl 1993 lancer. so i was thinking a non-turbo supra. they are available for about 14K over here. non0turbo 100,000Km's on them (60,000 miles). but for now, i think i might just get one, and leave the performance at 160kw, until i can legally drive a turbo. and i dont wanna risk driving a turbo because if your caught with one, you lose license for 3 - 6 months, second offence = impounded car. thanks for all your advice though, just too much money to add performance whilst staying non turbo.

its only if ur under 20 (on your p's). yea. they are getting so strict with anything involving young people. driving laws. no driving after 11pm with passengers in car, no high powered cars (includes no turbos, no V8's and nothing exceeding 200kw), they r closing night clubs early, "cracking down on teenage been drinking" which apparently includes 18year olds who can legally drink. wtf. the government does it because the majority of australian voters are old, due to a population boom many years ago, but in a few years years time when they DO start to die off (not sounding cruel), the goiernment will be changed :-)
