Pink Slip Needed In Sydney - Please Help!

[inmaniac]

Hey guys,

Could someone help me out please - I'm in desperate need of a pink slip for my R32 GTS-T. My only posssible defects are an exposed pod filter and aftermarket HIDs.

I had my car booked in to a guy this morning but he knocked me back 'cause of the pod.

Can anyone please help me out? Preferably Sydney Inner West (I'm in Haberfield) - I'd REALLY appreciate the help, especially if someone could help me ASAP.

Thanks in advance guys!

Josh.

Im not sure anyone would post up the details of their mechanics who would "overlook" defects as their licence is at stake.

Cops do patrol these forums.

My bad A-K, just need help as I'm in a jam ;(

how is a pod a fail for pink slip?

blue slip, yes.

pink slip, shouldnt be.

aftermarket hids are a fail, just replace with the standard bulbs you took out for the inspection.

[SKYLNE R33]

The best way to avoid any hassle, Just take out the HIDs and replace with stock bulbs and either get a pod cover or just put a stock air box in to pass inspection.

Quickest and easiest way.

Thanks for advice gents. HIDs will be straight forward, but as for the pod, I don't have the stock air box, nor can I be f**ked to make/get one

Would someone out there have a stock airbox I could borrow for a day??

[SKYLNE R33]

Sorry can't help you there mate, Haven't got a stock filter,

Definitely recommend getting your hands on a pod cover if you plan on running a pod filter, saves getting defected down the line somewhere, been done for that before once upon a time haha.

Im in blacktown, PM me for details. POD is not fail for pink slip. HID are a defect but as long as they are aimed properly we can't fail it but a lot of the rules regarding pink slips state "at the inspectors discretion" So yah if you want to drive to blacktwon ill sort it out.

Thanks for input everyone, ended up getting this sorted out.

Apparently according to the mate of a mate who did it he said that the Air Filter thing is BS and that most people will pass with them.

You all already know that but just sharing what he said

Cheers.
