I'm trying to organise a group buy for window tinting.

Whos interested?

Does anyone know any good tinters around the place? Must be top quality stuff. I know of one already: normal cost is 360, but can be much less if we get lots of cars.

Thanks

People who are definites: 5 so far

nozilla - r33

sskylinee (and his brother)

These are the places that do the tinting, well the ones that i've asked so far:

Scorpion - 295, best tint he's got metal based, not dye colour based.. called endurance. guaranteed against everything including fading and optical clarity with absolute life.

extra 60 bucks to remove old tint.

Others please get hard prices!!! so then i can post it up so then if people wish to go somewhere else then we can organise it for them too!!

Oh yeah one last thing, please no timewasters or pretenders, we dont' want to have to ask a business to do a group buy of 15 poeple and have only 2 show up. its not fair on the guy so please only say u are definite if u are in fact definite.

Thanks

I'd be keen for sure, but I'd also need the shitty tint removed from my rear window first

I only need the two front windows and the rear window done, those two smaller ones at the back already appear to be tinted

We get a guy in to my work (complete audio) that does window tinting, he does a good job and will do whatever shade you want.

cut the springs in the barina dude.

quality lowering job.

U can get angle grinders for like $70 nowerdays can't ya? I'll help.

Put the window tinting money towards stickers and other performance enhancing bits and pieces. Maybe a wing on the bonnet? :)

Hippy hook me up with details.

i pay $280 for my car at tint-a-car cloverlly park south road.

we are going to do group buy, i saw a thead in VIC section did the same thing & tint-a-car do $199 for VIC SAU member.

ok the best place so far is this one place called scorpion i think, just north of the city not too far out.

the one that tint a car does is what scorpion considers their mid range section, which scorpion will do for 240 or so before group discounts ... and yes tint a car will offer life time guarantee against bubbling and pealing ... however not visual clarity... so it will fade and change but not peal and bubble. so eg if someone breaks a window it will be hard to match the same colour tint if u've had it on for long enough. The other film which is the best one they have has a life time gurantee against fading, peeling, bubbling, optical clarity and EVERYTHING else.. it will

never fade so if someone smashes your window after 10 years and you go back and put the same film on you won't notice the difference between the new one and all your other windows.

you can add reflection percentage so when someone walk past it, its like the bathroom mirror...you can apply makeup using my tinting according to my female friend who rang them up.

any comments?

im interested in getting my car tinted as well so put me on the list please. In regards to not being able to havethe front side windows tinted, i hope your joking as this would defeat the purpose of getting your car tinted. imho anyways.

Sorry to say Hippy, but the previous owner of my car had to remove the tinitng fron the drivers and passenders door to pass regency. Someone better find out b4 u spend the couple of hunderd to get em done. - Not being a downer just wanna know for sure myself. (Btw he passed with the back and 1/4 windows still tinted)

When my previous car had to go thru Regency (it came from NSW), the front window tint had to be removed - the back window and rear quarter windows were ok.

I was told they would not let the front tinted windows through because they didn't have the Australian Standards stickers specifying what % the tint was... the back windows didn't have the stickers either but they weren't fussed.

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
