So,

My v35, has really dark tints on the rear window and the two small side windows, nothing on the two front door windows. I have trouble reversing as night, as you could imagine.

I wasn't too sure what it was initially, so I wanted to get my whole car tinted. So I went to get it tinted. The guy ripped off, the old tint and put a new one all round (20%). What I ended up was with my two front windows at 20% and the read and back still very dark! Still looks silly.

What the guy told me afterwards is that I have privacy glass at the back and side windows! (plus some extra tint) Wtf! After the new tint, its still dark, cause he's put tint on an already dark privacy filter! I still cant see too well! The point of me putting new tint was so I can see better and have even colour all round!

ANyway the back is still very dark, does naybody no in % terms the tint level on the privacy filters? After putting a 20% tint on the privacy glass, it coms up at about 8% on his machine.

I think im going to rip off my tints at the back and just hope the pirvacy glass kinda matches with my tint....what a bitch and waste of money! All the extra tint for no reason, now gotta rip it off.

Im not too keen on smashing into others cars at night, so I think ill remove it!

WOnder if anybody else has that shit privacy filter thing at the back...please share your problems.

could always get reverse came for your car. maybe cheaper then tinting or taking tint off your car

i got a Stagea s2 with privacy glass. easyer to see out of the rear window unlike a coupe. but i have given a few love taps to wall's and stuff

Hey mate,

Had it on my V35 as well, but with no extra tint on top and it wasn't to bad.

A mate of mine who tints cars, said though to match the fronts I would definitely have to use an illegal tint fro NSW so I just went legal up front and left the privacy as was in the rear. My car was Black with black interior so the difference wasn't to noticeable.

Bad part is, short of getting new glass there's no way around it.

If it's just the darkness of it that you're worried about, just take the tint off and leave it as is, as i said it wasn't too bad for me.

Cheers

Bobby

      @Ozdavroz Not going to get a better deal than that. Cash up front and ongoing payments. 🤑

      I wouldn't even move it like gTSBoy is saying. I'd seriously do what Duncan is saying. Unplug the injectors, and unplug the fuel pump.  Pull the spark plugs out. Have a look in quickly with a bore scope if you want. At most, you can't spray a bit of oil into the bores so there is lubricant in there while you crank it. (Don't fill it, as it's only going to enter the exhaust, or spit at you out the spark plugs holes. Before cranking the engine on the starter, after a 5 year sit I'd probably prime the oil system manually. Easiest way to do so is to look at buying an oil filter relocation block, fit it to the engine. The pressure line going into the engine on this block you can then shove into some sort of oil pump, or put it into a bottle, with that hose going to the bottom. Fill bottle up with oil. Now seal the bottle and add a compressed air line to the top of the bottle. Feed compressed air in, about 20psi will be PLENTY. This will pump oil through the motor. Be aware, it also means it will drain back to the sump, so make sure you don't end up over filling the motor Now bolt the old oil setup back on (or fully install the remote filter system).   This way you've at least pushed fresh oil everywhere, then you're letting the motor crank to then do its own oiling. Then I'd tap the key to make sure it can start to crank, if the motor free bumps, then I'd just hit the key and let it crank. After letting it crank and seeing you can get real engine oil pressure, put new spark plugs in, reconnect the fuel system electrics, and send it.   Additionally, you can look to remove the fuel feed line to the rail, and divert it to a tank so you can get the bottom of the tank shit out, and just incase there's some crud sitting anywhere that gets passed the fuel filter (or is already ahead of it).   If fuel injection at the injectors ends up appearing to be a problem, you can dump the injectors into an ultrasonic cleaner for a quick flush clean out. Note this isn't as good as new injectors, or getting them pro cleaned and flowed

      All I can say is, that's still bloody awesome! No plans on caging it I'm guessing?

      It seems you'd like your Skyline to go to a great home, that can keep it as a beautiful museum piece.  I feel I can provide the perfect place for it, however, I'm not sure I can justify so much money for a Skyline that has only been crashed 3 times. Due to this and market prices, would you be against me buying it for $100.00, with $60 to be paid upfront, and the remaining $40 to be paid annually in equal payments?
