i need to get some window tinting done and ive read the past threads and it states that the darkest legal tint is 35%....

just wondering what most of you guys have on your skylines like is it 20% or are most of you liners on 35% tints...

Also what would you go for, the mirror finish effect or just the plaine dark tints as i dont want ppl to be checking out whats inside the car

thanks again

wish limo tint was legal,that would keep damn car burglers away.I use a 35% 3M security tint,its expensive but the new trend nowadays especially for audi's and bmw's.One night i heard my alarm and stupidly ignored it.The next day i saw the black rubber on top of the door been like jacked up somehow.My driver mirror just had like a scratch line.No cracks,but had to fix the rubber thing cos the mirror wont go up and down properly.Mine's plain dark tint.Looks good.

3M surcurity tint is good but... most of tint places will only do window bits... that you can see... not the hole lot!

to do that tinting shop must take your door out and tint the whole glass...

what's the point doing surcurity tint when they smash it then ripp it out with hands... especially skylines have no metal surrounding so it is even easier!

so ask them if they can tint whole glass bits!

cheers

i got the sum,mer breeze on my astina ages ago and i hate it its ugly and looks brown, im going top of the range for my skyline soon, $400 odd but it is well worth getting the formula one, but most likely im going to get a 'under the counter' job and get it darker than legal

hmmm I beg to differ about mirror tint looking "homo gay" ...

PSIKO on this forum has mirror on his Silvia, and in the day time it looks hot. At night time it looks just like dark tint.

Prolly not the best example but the only one I could find for the moment:

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
