Hey,

It does have a low amount metallic base, however I have discussed this with Auto Perfection and they will be using a NON metallic tint for windows containing any arials. (no colour difference)

Not sure if this helps with a Navi, I will put it on the list and ask tomorrow.

Cheers,

Penny

thanks Penny. Let me know.

its interesting to see how many people are going with 20% tint for their street cars......35% is pretty damn dark.....i used to have 17% on my skyline before and on a dark rainy night its was horrible to drive....i had to drive with windows down so that i can see what is happening next to me :(........

MORE INFO......

Legal:

From Feb 2010, it is legal to have 35% tint on ALL WINDOWS besides the windscreen.

If you want 20%, be aware that it is defectable (rare, but it happens).

About the tint:

The particular tint that Auto Perfection will be using on our cars is the SunGaurd PerformX 'Charcoal' Film.

The deal:

After all the money has been transfered to Auto Perfection, you have 6 Months to book in for your tint.

thats a pretty sick deal id also like to get 20% on my windscreens thanks

Hmmm... That's made me think, I was going for 20% maybe I should have a look at a car with 20% and 35% cause I have no idea on the darkness, just thought 20% would look better

What's other peoples opinions on 20%? Is it too dark?

Edited by brad20

Add me please! :)

I need both front windows on the Stagea done (rest is privacy glass) and I need all windows done on our 81 Colt (except windscreen obviously). All in 35% please :)

$255 for the lot? (or have I got it wrong?)

20% is nice 35% a little too light - even if its legal :)

correct

Ric is in the process of moving his shop, albeit 2 doors up he will have a nice show room do display speaker's and subs and a nice place to park also, when i get more info he will be inviting SAU down for a grand reopening bbq :(

i hope this helps a little Penny

Thanks Steve! feel free to jump in and answer when I'm not around. Much appreciated :)

I had 35% on my R34 and it wasn't light at all...that my be because it has a slight tint inside the factory window...

Either way I'm going all legal so it will never be an issue with po po. Haha

    • 65601-05U00 is the hood latch. 62550-08U31 is the support that holds it to the radiator core support. They are all super discontinued so I don't really have any great leads on how to source this stuff.
    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
