I see one problem here...

that's a really bad hairstyle.....

Some TE37s will fix that...

Seriously - what about the hundreds of cars (including Australian and Euro) out there with factory privacy glass for the back....

They only pick on window tints because they can't see if you or your passengers are wearing seat belts.

But then again, if you're not wearing one, you're kind of asking to be picked on imo...

That and it makes it hard to see if your on your mobile...Which most people are..

I think privacy glass is fine, eg for the R34. Just not tint. Can anyone confirm that?

First exhaust, now tinted windows. What's next on their list? Cars with 4 wheels and bikes with 2 wheels? Or maybe they'll start forcing people to wear a helmet while driving.

Not long ago, can't remember if there was a thread posted on here or not, there was an announcement you could be fined for leaving your car unlocked because it promotes car theft.

Oh well.... Soon we'll just be left with 4 wheels with tyres...

Could still defect on wheels not being factory, tyres not enough tread...and that's before they inspect the engine bay...

Don't know how people can't see through tinted windows, especially at night time when everything that should be on the road should have lights on. Hell, I've worn sunglasses at sundown before and had no issue seeing non-lit objects. And my vision is shit! Far from 20/20. Here are some scary words:

I can't see sweet fk all out my back window at night time. You obviously have never driven in a car with 5% tint. :P

I think my rear window does have 5% tint...but...I can still see lights through it, which is what matters. If someone does not have their lights on at night time, albeit harder to prove, they are in the wrong. If I'm reversing at night I tend to stick my head out the window and reverse very slowly.

hey guys i work for a company that tints cars, privacy glass is all legal as long as the car came out standard from factory although the front two windows wont have privacy glass so its gets matched with 20% (or 20 grade) tint which is illegal, the darkest legal tint is 35% then 20% that illegal then goes down more and more 5% is limo tint cant see in pretty much, same goes with mirror tint its illegal, its not the factor that cops cant see u do stuff in ur car a lot of car crashes do happen with illegal tint imagine driving at night with 5% (limo tint) at night u cant see in and cant see out i no this for a fact

hope this clears it all up for ya's

      I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times

      True, might get it looked at. Found out you can in fact flatten the 12v battery relatively easily too the other day (kids lefts the hazards on) so meaning to get that checked in the new year. What's odd is it'll blow cold from both vents if you have the ac down as low as poss (18), but anything else the passenger one blows warmish. Also has been summer since I got it obvs but noticed it didn't seem to want to blow hot last night when we had a cold snap.

      You ask for things. You specifically state you want responsiveness. A link was provided for a far superior, more responsive option. Find a MX5 workshop that will install it for you. Maybe MX5 Mania will throw on the Fab9 kit. It seems they want to charge almost 14K installed for their kit, so if they charge you $6K to install the FAB9 kit then you'll be ahead? Though really, the 2.5 with a 2860 running low boost will more or less feel as good as anything else. It's a lot of displacement and a small turbo. Think of a more modern RB26 with one stock turbo :p TBH, truth be told I've been driving my own car, and use about 50% throttle at most for 99.9% of the time. Mr Bogan is likely similar so this is all going to be semantics for the use case he actually has. (He'll be happy with anything relative to now) However, the EFR is hands down far superior in this use case. You really, really, really, really do notice it over the Garrett or equivalent.
