I'm going on the 26th of february.

Can I just say to everyone here that it's a bit surprising that 30 odd people have emailed me and confirmed yet only about 6 have gone and got their windows tinted so far.

I know we have 3 months but I would have thought that was only necessary for about 5 of the 30 odd.

What's happening peoples?

Don't worry too much about days set aside, call him and book your time.

I'm just waiting to sort out my air con as i always drive with my windows down. :)

One of my old tints have scrathes on it due to something rubing against it when opening and closing. Can he fix that? I would hate if my new tint got scratched.

I'm just waiting to sort out my air con as i always drive with my windows down.  :rofl:

I'm in exactly the same position: need to sort aircon ASAP because 48 hours with the windows up and no aircon = hell.

I have a window regulator problem that I need fixed before I get the windows tinted, as apparently when replacing it, it is very easy to scratch the window tint.

Hi Guys,

Few weeks down the track and im totally happy with the tints.

Heres couple of photos of 28% tint

Im so glad i did it since sydney has still been pretty hot and sunny, plus the price was great considering solartint wanted $300 for all my windows!

Yeah I saw the white R33 there it was a looker :(

Maybe my tint isnt as dark or something, or the type I chose isnt as great, but mine is far less dark than yours was. Robert said you had 28%, but maybe you went the other 28% film he was offering.

Oh well, *shrugs*. You live, you learn.

Booked in for this Saturday morning: 7:15AM :spew: -- Robert is a "morning person".. he starts at 6:00AM! -- I, on the other hand, am not :D He has been extremely helpful so far, fitting me in at extremely late notice :)

locosam / MarkE: which films did you go with? I think Robert mentioned he has a Cybertint and a something else @ 28 percent. Just wondering which is which :)

cooky2511: picsorban :)

Mine was the 28% non reflective.

Reflective looked really good on his ute, but i didnt think the reflective would suit my car much (plus i didnt want the extra attention from police). Im not sure what he called it, but it was the same as roberts ute

Got my car done on Sunday morning (28%, non-reflective). Only had time for one quick piccy because it started raining:

Before (when car was in Japan):

After:

Let me also add to the praise for Robert: he is just a top bloke. Fitted me in last minute, nothing was too much trouble, extremely helpful. You couldn't ask for me. Do the right think by him guys: if you put your name down, give him a call an organise a time to do your tint.

Thanks also to Adam for organising the group buy.

Lucien.

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
