You reckon it was that good Col-GTSX ? Got a pic ?

Yeah im happy with it, i mean it provides a nice look to the car and reduces the heat very well then on the inside on has the slightest tint looking out...

So its sorta the best of both worlds, looks heavy and dark outside and nice and light on the inside...

It covers me needs and im very happy with the tint...

PS> My cameras are at work, but ill get a pic soon...

Col where did you get it done and how much did it cost you? Do you have contact info for "Tint Mart" ??

There is about a dozen tint marts round SEQ and NSW.

www.tintmart.com.au

I went to strathpine as it was closest to me.

Cost was $350, called around and none of them were willing to do it any cheaper as they are the exclusive agents in Australia for this film...

(I actually paid $330 as i had a discount voucher from the last car i had them tint for me)

Darkest legal tint is actually not as dark as you would expect. It's very easy to see through and at night its not *that* difficult to see through but it certainly makes things harder.

My skyline has what I *think* is factory darkened glass (or is it tint), under Victorian laws its ok if its factory (rear windscreen and the quarter panels (I think thats there name, the ones behind the passenger/driver side windows).

Also under Victorian law the tint is supposed to be the same % all round, I had a lot of tinter's tell me otherwise. Vicroads has this info, I assume there is an equivalent in Queensland :)

Good luck.

Im not saying its a good thing or if its a bad thing.

i have not had any issues with tint @ all.

i have 16% light tint on my skyline.... it looks shit hot @ day... at night its difficult to drive thats for sure...

I always have windows open in my car for personal preference.. i like the wind.

I personally have not been pulled over once.. possibly as my windows are always down.. and i have had insurance claims made for my car, in which the windows did not have any effect on my claim.

I can tell you, getting the 16% tint was cheaper for me than getting legal tint.

Also since my car is black, and has very black tint.. it looks shit hot ;)

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
