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.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
