has anyone here got darker then legal tint and if so have you had any problems with our friends in blue? :run:

I'm wanting to get tint this week as my r33 doesnt have any tint presently

I never realised there was this many options for tint, Black, Charcole, Darker then legal, Mirror

what do you guys think would look best on a silver 97 r33?

Im thinking either a dark tint or possibly mirror

cheers

the charcoal tinting looks like alot of the new cars.. so it updates the cars look straight away.. mirror is tricky cos of the reflectivity of the film etc and how much is too much reflection etc. black if done right looks smicko

but its too hard to see out alot of the time at night..

DARKER THAN LEGAL is straight forward isnt it

i would go with the smoky charcoaly one that is slightly reflective..

hmmm combo tint

Legal tint is 35% visibility . (cops can test this)

If your interior is dark, an illegal tint such as 20% or 5% visibility will get you in trouble as the car will appear darker. That said, if your interior is dark then a legal tint will be complimented. I have had 5% (limo) and i got a yellow sticker. Illegal tint is more inconvenience than its worth.

Mirror tint either comes in 35% (legal) or fully reflective. Fully reflective will get you done for sure. Apparently fully reflective is a bit annoying aswell because it can reflect from the inside making it hard to see out. Even with my legal reflective tint i was getting reflections of my dash on my side window at night time.

I just got legal reflective tint done, and i like it much more than any tint i have gotten previously, although it costs $50 more.

peter garden in ballajura didi all my tinting requirements, can do any darkness down to 95%, and is still the best quality work ive ever seen

give him a call on 0439 877 978 and tell him his nephew Adam passed on the number

majority of his work is darker than legal and can also go to the extreem of doin your windscreen haha

raasclat is on point. I got the tint just after the darkest legal...i believe its 30 or 25%...cant remember exactly. But my interior is black and the guy suggested the one i got was perfect. Apparantly as long as cops can see a siloette of a person, they more than likely wont pull you over. I have had it for about 4 months and havent been pulled over yet.

I got it done at sun pro in ossy park...cheapest i could find. It was $220 including removing the old tint!

I have a little darker than legal too, not sure exactly as it was on the car when I bought it, but I've been pulled over twice (at night) and they put a torch though the windows (to look what's in the back I guess) and never said anything about the tint.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
