Hey guys,

Wondering if anybody knows places that pass 15% tints for pink slips near Parramatta?

I decided to get my car pink slipped legit, as last 2 years the guy didnt even test the brakes, and now the guy's telling me: FAIL for tyres and reckons i have 12-13% tints on the front windows.... am guessing they're 15% tints. Tyres is legit, and shall have replaced, but the tints is a bit silly to me, i bought the car with the tints and don't like prospect of forking out plenty to have 'em taken off and put back.

PM me even.

Thanks

Hey George,

What I don't understand is that you state that you want to do a legitamite pink slip, then try to find a way out when you are knocked back on something that isnt legal?

If you are going to get it passed legally, get it done 100%

otherwise go to the bodgy bloke in the first place.

BTW - there is a reason why 15% is illegal. It lowers the amount of light coming into the car so much so, that your vision is reduced considerably. This reduces the safety of you and others around you on the road.

I would hope you wouldn't put a couple of hundred dollars in tint infront of your life or those of others on the road near you.

It doesn't matter so much what you deem important. Someone who has spent countless amounts of time/effort has figured out what the rules are then some git politician has made that law to protect people in this society.

The only way around it is if you can convince them it was done prior to 1 August 1994 (dependant on car model this may or may not be possible)

If you can't understand the problem/law, maybe you should study it here.

Else, you must keep your car maintained to the correct standards.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
