Hi

Sorry to dig up an old thread but my undertstanding of the situation is this

you may have tint on the front windows so long as it is 75% total... many cars come with factory tint in the glass so when you have this tint + the 75% film the total is alot darker hence the reason why its still not allowed by regency. same goes for the back... its 35% total.

another problem is that this law is for SA only so no companies invest in making 75% tint and if they do its the cheap dye crap. :P

the law isn't only south australian

its just that the otehr states decide not to comply with it

lol well to me that reads like a contradiction but anyways my last point is still valid :P

can you confirm or correct me on the bit about 75% tint is legal in the front so long as its the total "luminous transmittance" ?

The UV cut tint that the R34's have from factory is still a bit of a fight with the law as well.

It's one-way...which isn't actually covered by the laws....from inside the car it looks like 35%...from outside it looks less.

But as I've stressed many time to the boys in blue it *is* factory tint.

    • That may or may not be me that replied 😅
    • Your response is extremely similar to what someone on the Haltech tuning tips Facebook page answered me. I take it you're also on there haha. Dyno is booked for June 27th and that's exactly what I'll be doing. I also realized I never setup a pulse width adder table so I went and did that last night. Made a fair bit of fueling difference in low load areas.  I sorted out my power steering belt woes. It was an alignment issue and it has now survived multiple instances of abuse that would have killed it prior. I also changed my fuel pump hose. The hose I replaced looks nothing like the legit gates hose I received. Real hose is actually 5/16" and is labelled properly. Amazon refunded me but has been giving me grief about my nasty review I'm trying to leave... I keep having to modify it for acceptance. I want to make sure the point gets across to others.  Last issue I want to deal with soon is the slight vibration I get in my steering wheel with my GKTech Spacers in front. My annoyance has grown and I'm at a point where I want it resolved. I've tried everything I can come up with like clean spacers thoroughly, tighten in star pattern, retorque, have wheels rebalanced 4-5x with a variety of machines (2x with a Hunter elite). I've also taken the spacers off and remounted multiple times just in case.  I'm starting to think my GKtech spacers are at fault. I'll pop a wheel off and toss a dial indicator on tomorrow to verify runout and parallelism.
