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 downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.
    • Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...
    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
