South coast window tinting at lonsdale. Great job... will do your car for approx. $200 if you mention you part of the Skyline club. Has done two of my cars already and will be doing my GTR soon.

"SUNBLOCK tinting" on main north rd, near synergy and scottys motel do tint from $220

not sure about the quality your after, but had a few mates get tint from there and they seem to be happy.

if your worried there is a warranty against fading, etc...

the life of the warranty will be over after you sell your car though.

hope that helps mate!

Thanks for all the replies guys. Basically I am looking for a darker than legal metallic tint. Most of the tinting places wouldn't do darker than legal so that's why I have to look for the side liner's.

hey, i think sunblock will do whatever percentage tint u want, 20 percent and even lower, but if its lower than 35% then they dont give u that sticker to certify its legal. also note that most car manufacturers already have some form of film on their windows, which will inturn the lower % even more. there are some places out there that put these legal stickers on there only to cop fines for illegally putting the 35% VLT sticker on when in fact the tint isnt what at the level of what it specifies.

note that for the front two windows (driver's & passenger) the legal limit is 70 percent i think it is...(which is pretty much clear window) with the rear & quarter windows being allowed the 35%

Hope that helps,

Darker than legal, 20% metallic tint, $170, works for a tinting place and does it in his driveway on weekends, sounds like the guy who did my Statesman a few years back.

Sorry, I don't have his details any more either, but it was a great job at a top price.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
