Pink and Blue Slip Costs

^^ As he said.

Technically a pink slip is supposed to certify the roadworthiness of a vehicle, and a car which passes should be able to pass any defect check. Depends how thorough the AIS (Authorised Inspection Station) is.

lol

they only check your wheels.. and check if your lights work or not.
and dey take it for a spin.. and walla..

If you need a pink slip then your rego renewal notice will state "INSPECTION REQUIRED"

blue slip is 22$

blue slip is 22$

if it's just to change records (eg an engine swap) then yeah that's about right. But a blue slip for anything else will be more than that.

my blue slip cost $50 for a change of engine. I think depending on what you are blueslipping it will cost more. ALso if you need it engineered at the same time.
Mine was a simple blueslip which was straight engine conversion. They were more worried about engine capacity.

Pinkslip is $22 if no issues with car

Where did you go? need to get a blue slip for motor shortly.. cheers

I didnt actually get it done..but was told that by the RTA..I asked how much it'd be? she told me 22$ paid to the mechanic. just try your local mechanic and ask them how much.
