Hi All,

After recommendations of people to do window tinting to my car and also rust repairs and proofing?

Seen 2 companies so far, Tinting Solutions and Tint A Car, both at Albion

$300 cash for Tint a Car and yet to get price for other mob.

Other mob are also doing rust proofing(EndRust agent) to a bit of surface rust on under body, he said he will spray it with a rust kill product which oxidizes the rust, then brush loose and clean up and coat several times with a wax/lacquer style paint to seal it. For a GTR r33.

Advice on procedure for rust proofing that will be quoted? and further recommendations if in the know of any others would be appreciated?

Cheers

obviously, I cant tell you where to go.

but one thing to consider....

the base colour of the tint.

I have seen, blue, green, brown, grey and red.

mate got tint on a cx7, has a very slight green tinge to it.

the wifes mazda 3 has a grey base.

this is my preference, so id pay extra.

just something you may not have thought about.

Thought about trying it yourself?

eBay has tint rolls for under $100 and the application kits for 20ish

Killing surface rust - depending how deep, use kill rust then spray over with underbody spray i would have thought

Ended up getting tintmart, good bloke was a bit more than other places but a higher quality more heat Reducing tint too. Got a product same as POR 15 but slightly cheaper for the rust issues. Cheers for input from those who did!

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
