G'day All,

Was bored the other day, so I wandered down to a local Premier window tinting place to see if I could organise a group buy. From my understanding this was organised a little while ago, so please excuse me if I step on anyone's toes here, but I missed out on this one, so I'm trying one of my own.

Anyway, this is what they had to offer. Firstly, the tint. There are two option.

- Ultima tint - specs can be found here, http://www.mep.com.au/auto-ultima.html They tell me this tint is used to make the popular Formula 1 tint. That is, using ultima, 3M, add three more protective layers to make Formula 1. I think the Ultima's have 2 protective layers only. Price $195, originally $295

OR

- Cybertint, specs found here, http://www.mep.com.au/auto-cybertint.html Lesser quality, price of $175, originally $225(I think) This is the one reduced to $195 if you go in by yourself.

So yeah, according to them, if we can get 5 cars, we can get the lower prices. Best thing is, we needn't go all at once, although it would be a great club thing. But they also issue gift certificates, so all we need to do is go there to get these together one day.

Errr, not too sure what else to write. Oh, I am no way a business. I just want to tint my windows, and yeah hoping to get some interest to get a cheaper price.

To be hones, I'm not sure whether this is a great deal, as I think the previous group thing was a hell of a lot cheaper. If anybody else can do the leg work, then please feel free to take over.

So what is everyone's thoughts? Oh yeah, the place is in Nunawading, near Bunnings. SE of Melbourne.

Oh, one last thing, moderators, if this should be moved, apologise, but can you help me here. So please reply. If there is interest, I can give them a call for you guys.

Cheers!

Hey Scotty

That deal sounds pretty good.... just wondering if we could get the F1 tint for a similar price.....

I read another post about tinting, and DJLethal said he has a contact at Tint-a-car that could do a nice deal for tints.

Lethal, you around???

yer i guess i cna arrange another one at tint a car camberwell again, it was $180 to get a skyline coupe done all over in either darkest legal formula one or the illeagal stuff

if you guys are interested, pop some names down and once i get 8 ppl or more ill give him a buzz and arrange asomething coz i gotta get a window re-tinted anyways because i scratched it real bad :P so ill come donw too for the day :(

Wicked sick Lethal!!!

Scotty - comeon, jump onto the Tint-a-car bandwagon. 180 for Tint-a-car F1 tint is damn fine.

Makaveli - better ask lethal if it costs extra to remove the tint. guessing only, but maybe it is the same cos the surface might need to be prepared anyway to put the tint on.

Anyone else up to tint their car?? Doesnt have to be a skyline right? Is it the same for any coupe?

Just for the other readers out there, how much would it cost to do say a 4 door R33?

can we wait till i get my next car nath? :P i wanna do that one at way-too-cheap rate also :(

For $200 its great but i still reckon the "darkest legal" they did wasn't darkest legal on our cars, as i see too many cars with darker tints. Maybe if you have a factory tint and then add the film ontop it gets darker?..they did a good job on mine

DJ_L3ThAL, yeah, I thought it was you. Great job in getting F1 tint for $180. I'm definately in for that one instead. Ok, KingKw_13, I'm in with DJ_L3ThAL's thing. So how many people do we have now, 4 according to the threads, and DJ_L3ThAL replacement window.

Just for more people to sign up. Come on guys!

PM me for some details of an excellent tinter in Sydney who will tint ur r33 for $180 in whatever percentage tint you want. Oh btw, I've had 8 cars done by him, one which we still own 7 years down the track and the tint is still like new. I just had my r33 done last week and it is awesome.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
