Got mine done at Premier at Coburg. Paid 250 for good quality tint or you can get the 100 dollar stuff but not recommended. Did the back darker than the rest and was told this was perfectly leagal. Overall did a good job but the guy was a bit of a Know all.

i'm keen on some tint as well but i think i will give a couple of places around melb and see what i can during the week when i get some spare time, since i have been putting off getting the car tinted and the old tint removed for some time now. I have money atm but there is always something i can spend it on...sooner or later.

A quick question about tinting guys, what would you guys advise? 35% or 20% tint film?

I think the regulation in Vic is 35%, but how many ppl have done 20% and not had any issues with the cops?

Cops in Vic are just getting annoying for god sake. I have had my car for less than 2 mnths and already pulled over twice. Its a stock R34 for god sake.

My skyline had ridiculous tint on the back and rear quarters. I couldn't see out at night so i had it removed and have got the F1 tint now, 35%... not dark enough. My Verada has some non F1 tint that's pimp style from the outside and you can still see out at night (although harder to see than the skyline). I wouldn't get F1 again... i got it for $200 (through a mate's work)... but for the normal price it costs i reckon it's a rip.

20% on the back is alright, but on the sides aswell would be a pain in the night when driving and parking

Ah..cool. thanks man. I havent driven a car with 20% tint. I think i will get the 35% front and 20% at the back. The tint-man was saying that you can put 2x35% films and that will give me around 20% tint level.

      Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.

      I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
