How long am I allowed to "ride the clutch" when doing slow maneuvers?

ie. my driveway is very narrow and about 8m long . if I don't use clutch control I would most certainly crash from backing in or out too fast.

should I only go a few metres. rest the clutch for a bit by putting it in all the way. then continue on and stop every few metres or even every 15 seconds or whatever?

>>16772172
allowed? As long as you want but dont "Slip" the clutch too much so that you start to smell clutch burning (Bad, dont want that)

If its a new clutch theres nothing to worry about but if its getting older then yeah go easy on er

>>16772258

Can any Victorians help me out?

I'm 18 years old but am still on my Ls. I've only got 60 out of the 120 hours required before I can take the test for my driver's license.

Is it true that driving with a professional instruction that it counts as triple the amount of time? I know that it works like that in QLD, but not sure about Vic. So if I take 10 lessons that are an hour each, it would count as 30 hours? So far I've only driven with my parents.

I want to import a Commodore of Falcon, how much are they? Where's the most likely place to find one still functional after 25 years?

>>16773409
You can find one anywhere for dirt cheap. There isn't a single parking lot or street where you won't find one, they're that fucking common.

>>16773417
In decent condition though?

>>16773404
Fuck, that sucks.

>>16773405
Yeah there was a webm on WSG of driving on south road in the TT and jimmy talking about the turbo.

>>16773437
Since you haven't listed a year or model or price range, I don't know.

>>16773409
Why?

Anyways, I was at this dealer a couple weeks back and they were selling a 2011 Commodore for $12,000, and it was in really good condition too.

I know you won't believe me but holy fucking shit, this just happened to me.

>Driving home from work
>Highway patrol (vic) behind me
>Yellow light, play it cool and decide i'll stop for the yellow
>Hit the brakes fairly hard but not enough to brakecheck them, they were a fair ways behind me at this point
>Tires screech a bit because ABS

Long story short i got lit up and BARELY got off an impound. He was telling me how i could have been impounded under hoon laws for my loss of traction and i thankfully just got a fine for excessive braking.

Pretty pissed because i would have just kept going through the yellow but i've been watching highway patrol and they fine people all the time for running them.

Can they really impound me if my tires screech when i brake?

>>16773964
yah mate technically you did lose traction. In reality you'll get off if you take anything to court in victoria and cry about hardship. think everyone here knows about how vic courts work so nothing more needs to be said

>>16773964
had a dream last night where i was driving an 03 viper and was driving like a madman through the streets and stopped next to an abandoned house because i stalled somehow

5 seconds later a cop car appeared from down the road and they pulled up next to me and listed all the laws i just broke which they somehow knew

scariest dream i've had in a while lmao

pure coincidence its now shittier and over budget

>>16773409
You'd want to import about 10 other running ones of either one if you're after any 90s or older models. Probably better with a Commodore desu, buying engine parts won't be as annoying as for the Falcon's I6, the Falcon's v8 is just an Windsor. The XR6 Turbo model has great power potential from the Turbo Barra i6. They're all piss cheap mate

>>16773990

No worries

I just bought a mates VX wagon for $500. it's in pretty crap condition and high km's, but it runs and has a couple months rego which I need.
The drivers side window doesn't work and it needs to be pulled up or down. What should I do about this? I was gonna just take the door panel off and chuck some wood underneath it to hold it up so people can't get into the car, but then I won't be able to have it open..
I don't wanna put any money into this car

>>16771857
Do you like it? It's on my radar, they can be had for 30k now.

>>16773039
Dual cab ute, and get a pad over the tail gate.
I think takima/yakima make a good pad.
Other than that, anything with a tow bar and a rack.

I saw a Holden ute drive past me a couple of days ago and I instantly fell in love with it. How common are they in Australia? Are they meme tier vehicles or do they actually see use by tradesmen and other folk who need a truck bed?

>I've only got 60 out of the 120 hours required before I can take the test for my driver's license.

holy shit australians are cucked beyond belief

>>16774660
One of the most common work vehicles in the country along with Toyota utes.

>>16774663
Victards get the worst of it so no one of value gets hurt.

>>16774557
for $500 drive it until it dies, if you cant fix the window dont bother fixing it

slap some insurance on it if you're worried about it getting stolen so atleast you get payed out from your loss. its only a vx after all

>>16774660
i see like 20 of them every day and im a neet who doesn't get out of the house often

but dont think they're actually used for work, commodore utes are used as sedans

It's an image thing, much like Americans and pick-up trucks.

You can't haul much with an SS/XR6T/XR8 ute anyway

>>16774660
>Are they meme tier vehicles or do they actually see use by tradesmen and other folk who need a truck bed?
more often or not they are just used as meme tier vehicles. something thrown in there a few times a month or to carry tools...
but mostly tradies use like a hilux/other jap ute or a falcon (more suited to trade use than the commodores) even the old holden one tonners are real popular with bricklayers etc
