what do they check for ?

[Nobimmer 694]

My mate got his merc certed from the same guy for height. They checked the whole car and failed him on heapsa sh*t that wasn't suspension involved.

Set him back something like $450

Was the stuff he was failed on stuff that didn't meet the LVV rules?

make sure you take in a 12box

Just to clarify.

If you wanted to get certed for JUST height would you only need to pay the $195 and all he checks is your suspension?

Ie: wouldn't check tints or any other thing like a wof?

Tints come under Vision category

I dont think it works like that. He is certifing the car

Ring him and ask

I might too, just out of interest

when the car is inspected its the whole car not just parts.because the certifer is responsible to make sure the car will not fall apart around what he has certed.

mark is a real good guy have used him on heaps of cars when i was running a performance workshop.

Yep. If you have to cert one thing, the whole car must be checked and anything else certed that needs to be if necessary. So if you lower your car but don't need a cert, then change your brakes, but use parts that don't need a cert, and change your exhaust within the rules, you don't need a cert. But then if you say modify some rims to fit that requires a cert and they'll have to check and cert the whole lot.
