Just a tip: even though illegal tint looks cool it is illegal for a reason.

I got graphite 35 which is prety light considering some of the tints out there but u can see through it clearly at night. Guy on sheilds crs in Myaree did mine and it not a bad job and comes with lifetime guarntee. Cost me 220 all up.

I think F1 is the darkest legal available and u can only get that from solace:)

Use DMS Energy on Hutton St is Ossy Park -they are the only authorised 3M automative film fitters in WA apparently and they do an excellent job.

They have a new film called carbon black that look INSANELY dark on the outside, but is still legal and clarity is excellent from the inside.

If you are with the RAC mention it, you get a discount.

i have f1 tint from solace on my mr2 (as seen in the avatar),

it's pretty dark but still good at night. Highly recommend it!

there was a story about a guy in Adelaide who had illegal tint, it was dark and he didn't see a cyclist, cleaned him up and ended up having to foot ALL the compensation bill because of the illegal tint voiding his 3rd party. :eek:

don't know how true it is but i have a major gripe against dark tint anyway, you can't see much at all through the car at intersections when you need to see on comming traffic etc. :cool:

i think i will be going legal, to each their own but for me i think being able to see what is happening around me at night is very important, especially when you do country driving and there are no road lights to help you see whats at 90 degrees. Also having my insurance voided in a crash would be very nasty, cheers for all the replys

yeah mine isnt that dark so i dun think i would get into trouble...i drive with the windows down anyways...

my main concern however is that people might break into the car thinking that there is stuff to steal but in the end all i have is a factory head unit.

what sux is that if those kind of people will just smash your window whether there is something inside or for the off chance of 20cents being left in the ash tray, even if they could see in and see nothing they would probably run a screw driver down the side of your car anyway...their scum...................i hate them all:mad:

      You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?

      Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
