Posting to say G'day, moved across from NSW recently with my silver M35.

Enjoying the process of trying to get the car inspected and license changed to WA while having a 9-5 job...

Got an inspection this coming saturday so fingers crossed its all good.

I get the impression there isn't a whole lot of M35's over here...

Cheers

Nick

Failed the inspection on window tint being too dark on the rear windows. One would think if it was able to be complianced and registered in nsw with window tint as is it wouldn't be an issue, obviously not.

Can anyone recommend a decent/cheap window tinter, or somewhere not as an*l.

Thrilled about throwing a hundred bucks away...

Mechanic said 20% on the rear windows. Both driver and passenger windows have already had tint removed which was all the was required for compliance.

Auto power joondalup. Only place I could find open on a Saturday.

Have a bookIng already with a place up in gin gin just in case this happened, but no point throwing another 60 bucks away. So I guess I get the tint removed...

Hey Nick,

If your stagea is anything like mine, the rear windows do not have tint film on them. It's tinted glass (privacy glass in nissans terms) and im pretty sure every m35 came stock with the same, so there isnt even an option to get less tinted glass.

Edited by Ross

look around the edge of the glass. if its tint film u will see that it dose not go all the way to the end of the glass ( crago windows ) if its the rear doors take the trim off and u will see the same at the bottom of the glass

other wise maby try nissan and give the vin number and see if thay can tell if it was form factory

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
