I recommend Tint-a-Car.

Their service is the best, and the prices are competitive too.

I bought the top of the range tint with life time warranty on fading, bubbling etc.

2 years later, I had a bubble in my passenger side, I went to the shop and the guy did not hesitate to fix it, no questions asked. Didn't even ask for a receipt. I guess not many people stock the type of tint they got.

thats good that u got that service .. you should expect it anywhere u go else go elsewhere ... however tint a cars tint is actually not exclusive to them ... just the name of the tint .. u will find if u ask around that their tints are just renamed of others and thats why u cant' find it elsewhere ... and their tint still isn't as good as the one i'm telling people about ... its good .. but not quiet as good :( ... just my opinion... however u can try and prove me wrong :P

hehe Hippy,

Its just tint!

I just don't want it to peel, bubble or fade.

I want the darkess tint that is legal and I don't want the installers scratching, denting, thrashing my car.

Isn't that what you want?

Isn't that what everyone wants?

If I get this at a reasonable price I will be very very happy.

But I already have tint on all my cars already :P

Just sharing my experience with Tint-a-car in the City near Nordic Honda.

put me down as interested. i live in mt gambier so il need a little notice to get time off. best days would be a friday or monday unless their willing to do it on a staturday. is it in and out hte same day.

if its one of those days you could put me down as a definate. otherwise we'll have to see.

right now the price is 295 for his best tint .. its much less if u dont' choose the best tint .. best is to go see him .. i will be doing mine in about 3 weeks ... i will tell u guys when i'm getting mine done and then u guys can visit while he is doing it ..??

Pffft the guy I go through does awesome tint, and he is cheaper? $295 is expensive if that's the group buy price.

Yes that is back rear and sides. :)

thats great. im still concerned about the issue about the illegal passenger and driver windows as someone mentioned even though i see so many imports with them tinted. with the issue about tint darkness, darkest legal possible tint would be good too if thats possible.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
