Ok,

pooling our combined knowledge for a good cause - my savings!!

Im tempted to just go to autotint or whatever they're called (next to westate Autobahrn) in Nbridge, but is there anywhere better and/or cheaper around that I should consider.

FYI, they have an advert out the front for tinting FROM 199, though they quoted me $299/car.

I had my tint done recently by the guy that did JiMiH's

highly recommend him, he was cheap, can do all types of tints and was faultless. Took him about 2 hrs to do

it was $180 for my R32. So if you (or anyone) wants his (todd) number, PM me.

i used to take my cars to jamal from current trendz, but i havent been happy with his quality in the past year (2 out of the 3 cars i took there constantly bubble, and he wont fix)

:uh-huh:

well he said to me "if you have any issues give me a buzz". I figured it was worth the chance being only $180 for dark tint.

he works for a tint place and does cashies after work

Personally i like to deal with 'after work cashie' when i can, the service seems more personal, and they tend to take a lot of care knowing that you will recommend them, and you deal directly with them.

does that make sense? :P anyhow..will send the PM

i got complete mirror tinting and it is fully fully illegal, but i love it, but yesterday i started to rip it off

i am not sure who is doing mine, but JimH highly recommend that guy Zanda, i would go to him, might even do it myself next week

lata

Ive had peter garden do a couple of my cars, hes out in ballajura, does the 95% dark as hell tint, wierdly i never got a sticker ofr it on either car, got pulled over a couple of times but thtye never questioned it..

you can find him in the phone book..

Sun Pro in Ossie Park.

60% heat rejection 99% UV.

Leagal and has a cool mirror finish that you can still see through.

HIGHLY Recommended but it ain't cheap.

had mine done there, price was ok but quality wasn't that good,

spears that look like / are at the bottom of my rear 1/4 windows look shit, and also the rear window theres bubbles with grains of shit under them etc...i gotta either go back to get it re-done for free or go somewhere else. they have a good range though from legal, to black as f--k and mirror, where u can't see through them at all even in daylight.

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
