I had my 200SX done by Rob Tait over 3 years ago, excellent work. He also has a special sunroof film (more metalised than the normal stuff) so the car doesn't turn into an oven.

He's a member of the Rex club, and a lot of the WRX guys have used him, he is a WRX club advertiser, and has a forum area http://www.wrx.com.au/forum/viewforum.php?f=37.

He had to do my rear window with 3 pieces of film, as with the slope and rear access he couldn't get one piece in there. I wouldn't have known if he hadn't told me, you can't see the join. He takes pride in his work, and has been doing it for a long time, and doing it properly.

There are some before and after shots of hsi work on my 200SX here - http://www.wrx.com.au/forum/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=48263

How much did he charge if you don't mind me asking. I'm definatly taking it to him within the next couple of weeks. After hearing so many bad stories about tinting places its good to finally hear some positive ones about a place.

I can't remember, I'd have to dig through the car receipts. Plus it was over 3 years ago, so he's probably gone up a bit, and it was the discounted price for WRX Club members.

It definitely was more expensive that your tint Proffesor type joint, it was either $300 or $400 (I know, I know, pretty big margin of error there :D ), I think the base price at the time was around $350 for a rex club member, then I had the special sunroof film done as well.

Probably best just to phone him, or send him a PM on the Rex forums.

P.S. - He even gave me lift to and from the local train station as I dropped my car off before work.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
