  2. Hey Ben No Worries .... My friend Chris Gough runs MX5 racing.com.au ~ owns the cars that run under RedBack racing banner. Seems the MX5 NC is becoming a popular lease car with MX5 Racing team as he has four hired currently .... I have driven these, and although lack real punch are a really superbly balanced car which handle a treat. May even do an Evo for lease later myself CheeRS .... Del

  4. Hey .... Not good Andrew .... I met a couple of guy's from Vic recently who run in IPRA, they had a stick on one too. I believe it was an old Smith's one designed for the rear screen. It too was falling off but when it "Was " on the screen worked well although it only cleared a large part of the screen the sides still got badly fogged up I will certainly look at obtaining some later and was going to contact Mark Berry and a number of others, to ask if he'd be up for a couple. The problem I face is set up costs ( Which I obviously have to wear ) is in excess of $1500 .... So this would warrant the initial purchase of at least 6 possibly eight. This I would absorb in the sales and make little to nothing in the first new product added to my range. This isn't the same as Neil stated earlier referring to a minimum of four required .... I'll explain what this entails : - The heated elements are supplied for use on a large drum or roller. Just like a huge drum or roller with four sectional elements wrapped around it ..... Say like a roll of tear off plastic bags in the fruit and veggie section at Coles but in a larger scale ! During manufacture the roll or drum containing the heating elements, are placed on the screens over the first half of the glass. Then the second layer of glass is placed on top .... with the chosen colour Polyvinyl benzene (PVB) layer providing the tint to the screen, as for instance the BMW have many different tints in their range. I'm informed that the whole process it quite lengthy and mandates a minimum number of four, subject to the pattern or type required being a current production item. Hi Damo These screens were designed to clear a completely frozen screen in freezing conditions, in only a few minutes. From my experience, after driving in very poor conditions many times I would say that I agree it may start to re-fog, but feel it unlikely to interfere with visibility. Basically that's less than a decent lap of Wakefeild Park unless of course you have a very quick Skyline ! These screens are being used in OEM cars in Europe and are a tried and tested product. When in use the screens are quite warm and will retain their heat for some time, bearing in mind we are clearing fogging here in Australia, and not ice on the outside. In relation to the above, just how long the elements should remain off after ten minutes duration ~ recovery time is what was recommended by the element supplier. I shall establish if it's ok to vary the running times and also the off times etc, within a few days. I shall be offering a fitting kit containing a timer / relay, wiring etc, with the screen supply as an option, which may help / avoid premature failure and obvious dissapointmants.You may do your own set up however fitting and use outside of the manufacturer's recommendations would void any warranty. They won't fail if these recommendations are used. The manufacturer will not honour returns as a result of incorrect installation of wiring. HTH .... Hi Rich thanks for your input Will do with a passion ! Hi and thanks Paul .... I shall look out for your deposit I have no way of helping by mid March .... Sorry Again Thanks Ben …. Glad I could help. I'll have to email Neil for a new head count now CheeRS .... Del

  7. Hey .... These as the same Ford Europe I refer to ( Not sure if you meant Ford Aust ? ) As I havn't seen our new Fords with heated screens ?. I am also informed that the company that makes the V8 ones, as they are located in Qld. CheeRS .... Del....
  8. Hi .... Thanks for your interest and sorry for not being more clear Ben. Allow me clear this price thing up. As I have imported the first batch in my name basically to guage interest etc, thus not through the business. The total price will be $495 ~ Plus any internal freight if you purchase in this first order. If screens are ordered in the second batch, these will be under Competition Windscreens. Then the price will warrant GST bringing the price to $544.50c again plus freigh etc. These screens have elements in two seperate banks, one on each side with 250 + zig zag micro fibre tungsten wires, ( 4 mm pitch / width ) which are only visable if you look closely . This is required, as they are designed to suit current road cars. For the R32 screen there will be as many as 275 - 280. wires in total " Completely different than the V8 taxi ones " ! Thanks for your interest too Chris I would require a deposit only within 16 days from now to include in the first order. Balance is due on arrival. If the worst come to the worst,I will still honour the three already required once deposits have been received, and the forth will have to be for stock Howerver I am really stretched to do this but will if need be. CheeRS .... Del
