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

timmay - r31

cheeky - r32

miss nismo -r32

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.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
