First off I must apologise for this as it is really a double post. I made a post in the Cosmetic mods section, but I don't believe it was the correct section. It was only about my HIDs but I think it will be much better to keep all the licensing issues to 1 thread.

I took my car for registration today and failed for 4 reasons;

1. Immobilizer

To sort this out, I will just take the car to an auto sparky and get them to fit an alarm + immobilizer.

2. HIDs do not comply (Need self cleaning device and auto leveler).

I am a little confused as to what I can do here. Has anyone here got some experience with this? I really want to keep them, so I'm thinking just a switch out with some bulb style lights to get registered then replacing the HIDs after.

3. Tint too dark.

I think the guy at the centre was just making an assumption as I believe it is 20% light through for it to be legal. But I guess I will just believe him and remove the tint.

4. GPS in way of forward vision.

I have removed this already.

Any help will be greatly appreciated :):thanks:

Self explanatory

35% legal, off it comes

As per^

35% Tint in front of Driver

20% Behind Driver

Cheers for that. It's the stock Xenon lights.

Do you know if it is just a direct swap out for the bulb style lights including reflector? Will any wiring need to be changed or will I need an adapter?

Thanks

i would either buy or loan some stock lights (bulb style) the complete unit and swop them over.

Immobiliser must be fitted. Can't get around that.

HID's must be removed. Just put some halogen bulbs in. Put your HID's back in once it passes.

Tints - just rip them off, get it passed and then go get new tints put back on.

GPS - self explanatory.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
