thx bman

Thanks for al the trouble your going to, you should hit this guy up to do one of your cars for free considering all the business your bringing his way (well at least at cost) :)

B-man, i have decided to rice up my car a little, do you know if the tinter you have in mind can do the flame effect in windows...silver flames on black background????

Thanks again

Friggin hell - silver flames ???? Huh ??

he he he he he

I know he can do girly stickers for your B piller - he he he

Dunno Roy - I think that would be a bit left field - but I'll ask OK !

I was trying to keep the packages all pretty basic and standard - to keep the costs down and consistant....

Dont mean to be a dumbass, but what is the difference between, Cybertint and Mirror Tint?

I am interested in getting some mirror/dark tint on my new r32 ;)

I dont want it to be a full on mirror reflection, coz i know that is totally illegal as per the rta website.

Also what price are we looking at?

If under 200 bucks i am very interested, just tell me time and place ;)

Flaps - Cybertint like matt - as in the photos above - Quantum is like more refelective - I'd suggest that you go down to your local Solace and check it out.

Jas - the timetable looks like this.

Finalise and agree pricing this week.

Take orders and $$ for next 2 weeks after this - cut off after 2 weeks, whoever has paid gets a voucher.

Vouchers valid for 30-60 days after this , so you can book in anytime that suits.

**Note** all subject to the agreement of the tint guy.

*UPDATE* - the fax I sent yesterday went thru but the kwality was bad- so I have sent all the details via e-mail - Should have something back tomorrow.

All those who are still interested and haven't made a choice on tint type and tint shade, please do so as it will speed things up.

Thanks all !

still might have 3 cars in it for ya, just need to see prices first... :rolleyes:

I'd go for the darkest legal one i can have on R32 GTS-t (ie pre 94 limits)... I think i'd go the more reflective one too... that's the quantum isn't it?....

The other 2 cars, not sure but can ask when i get a price... :)

Update:

Spoke to tint guy - he is super busy and will get back to us Tuesday next week with the price.

Yes, I said price (singular) - It's too hard to work out prices for everyone's individual cars (ie 2-door, 4-door, this tint, that tint) So, he's decided to just give us one price for what ever we want (per car, within reason - sorry Roy, no flames)

* Note this excludes 4WDs - so we'll get a diff price for these.

Thanks for being patient.

that sounds mad b-man...u r a champ....

i hope u r scoring a better deal than the rest of us, just for all tha trouble u r going 2

btw, how nice would todays weather have been @ EC? ah well, maybe next time

cheers

Guys,

Just checked RTA site, you can refer to the following link re: window tinting legality.

Basically:

- No mirror or reflective tinting allowed;

- Darkest tint is 35% VLT (ie: 35% of the light gets in)

- Date this limit is imposed is from 1 August 1994.

So if your car is tinted after 1/8/94, you have to apply the 35% rule.

This info is current as at July 2003

Page 2 & 3 are the relevant ones.

http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/registration/dow.../vsi03_rev3.pdf

If the tint is put on after 1/8/94 (regardless of the year model of the car) its got to comply witht he 35% rule.

If your car is older, and you put on tint now, I guess they wouldnt know, and you wouldnt tell them :) , but you could probably tell its new tint anyway. It explains it in the link above.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
