Does $110 seem abit much to get just the 2 front windows tinted?

sounds pretty cheap to me. At my work it's $375 for a full car, or the same guy does it at hone under his own business and it's $250 for a full carthumbsup.gif

the place i had mine done bent the rail inside the drivers door so my window ended up falling down inside the door about a week after the tint was done. the tint was ruined too.

Here's something that should interest all "L" & "P" platers.

Just saw a show on Chanel 9 where a kid blew .015 and insisted he had nothing to drink (zero tolerance obviously in his case).

Proved later that he was affected by his drunk mate passenger....just by inhaling the air that his mate was exhaling in the same car.

So the moral of the story is, if you're an "L" or "P" plater, don't kiss drunk chicks (or blokes) and stay away from "close talkers" :cheers:

asif u would kiss ur mate if u wernt drunk tho :nyaanyaa:

I only ask because I'm used to paying less then $200 for an entire car where as I'm only asking to just get 2 windows done now.

Booked in tomorrow I didn't care about the price just asking to see if this was about normal.

^^ not sure but if you can find what your looking for at super cheap auto I have a gift voucher I would like to sell someone could buy and use on such a purchase

I guess it would depend if you're spray painting or just using some air tools and look for one with a 2yr warranty

edit Supercheap's website has some on the front page

Federal 595-SS 255/40/17 $147.00 i have heard these are a very good street tyre

Krishy's mate priced me up a good price on these Bob Jane prospect

npz his name escapes me just atm im sure Krishy will be in later and tell us his name

lol

Good to hear that you were able to get a good deal with them mate. His name is Clint.

Just let him know that you know me and he will try and get you the best deal. No harm in asking for a quote :D

Anyone know where to get a good but cheap compressor? And what to look for?

Yeah as Steve-o said, depends what you are doing. If you do a bit of spraying and want a good spray gun, youll need a fairly decent compressor. put it this way, to get one of our good gravity guns, youll need at least 300 litres per minute free air delivery. Or a bit lesser quality, around 210-220 lpm

Yeah I wouldn't mind getting something with the ability to do spraying aswel as air tools. From what I can see Super cheap auto compressors only do around 180 lpm, I have kiij around the net though and people are talking about connecting two together if needed, which I suppose I could do but it would take up alot of space.

finally took the track pads out of the GTR last night.

the rotors have seen better days, the backing plate on the pads has all the paint flaked or broken off.

the tyres are shocking! 2 huge flat spots!

the front under guard is just zip tied on.

it at least starts easy, and runs fine. its sad looking at the wheels and seeing cobwebs connecting the brakes and wheels!

GTR definitely is in need of some TLC

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
