Hi guys

Was looking into getting some Taillight tint for my 350gt... I want to get something light so my lights are still visible at night. Have seen some pics on google images and the tinting looks great. What are your opinions? Do light tinting (30%) attract cops? Am not looking to go the full blackout rout as i have a CIA and a few other mods installed already.

What are the chances of a defect?

Thanks

There is a guy on G35driver that offers all sorts of tint for lights and roof vinyl covers etc - you can find all of his stuff here: http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y42/BlueBatmobile2005/

His user name on G35driver.com is bluebatmobile, you could PM him as well.

I think I read somewhere in here that it is illegal in NSW but I could never find that post again, maybe others can advise!

I have tint on my rear lights. The cops don't bother me. But that could also be because they see the glowing blackview recoder in front of the rear view mirror.

I will point out that it may be better to get the tint where the bulbs are not covered but the rest of the light is. It does lower the strength of your lights if you cover the whole thing.

When I got mine done, I thought that my lights stopped working and had to get someone to check. As I could not seem them from the rear view mirrors anymore.

Still, it does look really good.

Sean great stuff those tints look awesome though i bought blackout tints before reading this post. I might have to create the 4 holes myself onto the tints i have as its hard to see the break lights when i try those tints on.

No worries mate, i'll be getting that vinyl very soon. Yeah it comes with the 3 holes already cut out, shame you didn't post before you bought! I'm sure it will come up looking good though,

You can buy already cut-to-fit vinyl tint, that you just apply to the taillight, Id suggest using something like a hairdryer to heat the vinyl up to mould it into the taillight if you have the taillights that arnt flat across, but Im pretty sure any taillight tinting is illegal in all states? Hell im in W.A. and if its banned here then it would have been banned in the eastern states ages ago before W.A. We are still aloud to use radar detectors in W.A. o.0 XD but yea anyway, search ebay "G35 coupe Smoked taillight tint", fairly easy to do, plus just heat+rip off if ever stickered, f*k spray!

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
