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.

i got mine on a sale special thru the tint professor in Nth Coburg just off gaffney street for 260.. usually 365 or somethin

however i did get a quote few months back from Premier for about 280 .. but it was a 100buck off special ..

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
