Hey guys,

I have decided i dont like this hot melbourne weather, specially when im in my BLACK car. I was wondering if anyone know any contacts or cheap places where they do a good job. I know you get what u pay for but i dont think i wanna pay 400 bucks to tint a car. I hear some of the cheaper ones go green and bubble. I want it to be as dark as it can without being illigal, however i dont mind if the rear passenger windows are as black as the paint colour. Anyways plz let me know if anyone knows someone that does a good job.

Thanks.

Don't pay more than $200, and don't go to one of those big franchise places like Premier tinting, Solace, etc. With these you are only paying for their advertising budgets and profteering of the franchise owners.

Cheap does not necessarily mean bad. Make sure you get these 2 things for your $200 or less:

(1) Metallised, non-dye based film, preferably made in the US.

(2) Lifetime warranty.

Shop around, you will find lots of places that will do all the above. Also go for 20% tint if you can find it. It doesn't look too dark, but is much better for privacy and keeping the heat out. 35% looks hardly tinted at all. I've never heard of anyone being busted for 20% tints.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
