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.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
