If your car fails their "suspension test" then your car will fail. They will also fail you for the white blinkers as well, no doubt about it. Check your PM....

lindros2

does this fall into the "anti-rice law" category?

VITEK

HOLD ON GET THE FUK OUTTA HERE, YOU MEAN there really is some type of test they do with your suspension and if its not how they want it you fail inspection?

NJ Aegean 03

Yes, they pull your car up on this platform where it tests the shock/spring setup on the vehicle. If it doesn't comply with their "specs" they fail the car. Welcome to NJ inspection......

Is this suspension thing only in NJ ? Never heard of that one before. I think the lights are obvious.

VITEK

DAYUM, I wonder if The Good Ole First State has that punk ass inspection law.

NJ Aegean 03

Their "suspension test" allows them to fail your car for "unsafe driving condition". This is an portion of the NJ law that declares unsafe suspension parts as "immediate repairs". #6, 7 and 8 are found by doing this test.


0 13:20-7.6 Immediate Repairs

(a)When the nature of the defect(s)found at a motor vehicle inspection is such as to constitute a hazard to the public safety so as to require immediate repairs to such motor vehicle,such repairs shall be made and the motor vehicle
presented for reinspection within 48 hours.

(b)A defect which constitutes a hazard to the public safety so as to require immediate repairs to a motor vehicle shall include,but not be limited to,the following:

Again, these are considered to be immediate repairs, tint is an entirely different story. You will have 30 days to rip your tint off before having to take it back. If your blinkers are anything other than yellow/red (depending on make/model of car) you also will have 30 days to change the bulb.

Da_iLLeZt_TL973

damn man i dont feel like taking the bulbs out just for inspection.......NJ sucks fuck the gov.

Da_iLLeZt_TL973

what are you talkin about buddy we're talkin about inspection you must be lost

VITEK

He was being a smart ass, lol basically most of the "LAW" dont like "RICERS" because they race, waste gas, cause accidents, and break the law, so they are sneakly doing everything they can do to stop people from modding their cars the way they want so that they can RACE, WASTE GAS, CAUSE ACCIDENTS so on and so forth, i mean dont get me wrong theres alot of people that knwo how to drive and do a damn good job but the ones that messup alot are the ones who, drive up insurance costs, casualties, you know things like that.


But it was a smart ass joke, if you know what i mean.

Da_iLLeZt_TL973

yea i know what you mean i thought he was being a smart ass and callin me a ricer cause i had the white blinkers lol my bad

joseph_99tl

i just passed with my comptech springs and cleared lights.
but i have amber bulbs.

and they DID do the suspension test.

the first time they failed me for my autovation pedals.

BSTRDS!.

VITEK

WOW, is SPIDERMAN showing his Feminine Side in your avatar or WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NJ Aegean 03

They aren't worried about what color lenses you have, it's the bulbs that will decide as to whether you pass or fail.

On a side note, the state inspection facilities have no clue as to what's going on with certain types of cars. They tried to put my old Eclipse GSX (all-wheel-drive) on the dyno, until I screamed at him.

Da_iLLeZt_TL973

they just need to let people be...i dont understand why you cant have white blinkers but you can have amber...ive seen some amber ones brighter than the white ones
