Premiere seem to be cheap for a reason..... their tint jobs have noticable gaps around the tops of the windows, something so highly cosmetic is worth spending a few extra bucks on to get a good job.

although i wasnt 100% happy (i am very fussy though) with their job, overall people were happy when we organised the group buy...

i have two mates who are interested in a group buy as well, if we can get some sort of numbers (no tyre kickers!) i can call John for you guys...

We've had 3 cars tinted, each by different companies.

In order of preference:

Tint-a-car- good job, the tint has lasted well.

Tint proffessor- got some cut marks on windows (external), possibly caused by blades while they were measuring/cutting film?

Premiere- gappy, wouldn't go back to them, and they do sedans for $100, hardly worth organising a group buy when you can get it that cheap.

Cool, so has anyone picked a date and a place for this group tint a car?

John from Premier Mitcham organised for us last time the highest quality tint that yhey have (about $400 i think) for $145 for the 35% for the coupes, about $30 or so more for the 4 doors...

most of us got 35% in the front and the 20% on the rears, which makes it legal, for $175 for the coupes..my mates s15 and mine turned out very good, only very faint couple of marks, and a few very small bubles at the rear that cant really be seen...as i said earlier i am very fussy...

so i think Premier tint was good to us, other people please post your thoughts on your tint job from the last group tint..

Hey SKY031

Thanks for keeping this on the agenda.

Just to let people know... I don't have anything to do with organising this... i was just throwing out a few personal opinions in an attempt to help people make an informed decision with their final choice of company.

  • 5 weeks later...

i had an Audi done on tuesday and asked John if i could send more members down...

as long as you tell John you are from SAU he will give the group buy discount...

just thought some opf you might still be interested...

hey brett, are you still using the F1 tint that tint-a-car uses, or something different now?

had F1 on my old car and couldn't fault it....now i've got the 33 with some real dark (love it) japanese tint, but its not the best job...

Hey guys, Bret Wines from Vip window tinting came around this morning to tint my 33. I am happy as with the job, makes a massive difference.

He uses quality tint that F1 use. He does lexus, volvo and even Ford cars. Going just by that you can tell he is very very good at what he does.

Just lettin you know he did a kick ass job, $150 cant go wrong. Even got a lifetime warranty. His num is 0419515511 if your interested.

Ill post pics up later today.

Cheers,

Mark.

    • Aren't these run off of high voltage in OEM applications? Like 200+V. Or at least 48V in mild hybrids. At ~18,000 BTU ballpark nominal capacity the power draw is at what, 2.2 kW? ~185A is a pretty crazy amount of amps. At 200V it's only 11A. The 70A nominal kits with up to 100A peak draw I see for stuff like classic Porsches have pretty substantial compromises like shutting off at idle and not actually managing to keep the interior cool in hot conditions because they can only output like 6000 BTU. IMO if I had to pick what high amp draw component to retrofit to these cars I would start with the engine fan, not the AC compressor. You need an ~850-1000W brushless fan, something like this: I would love to see the data but I would bet that whatever you save by running the AC compressor in a more efficient regime with an electric motor you're probably losing to conversion losses anyways. It's not really like a clutch fan where you're losing power all the time even when it's nominally disengaged and it gets worse as it engages because the envelope tracking isn't that precise.
    • I am a volunteer marshal at the Grand Prix. As such, I get a "friend / family" ticket. It is a general admission ticket, valid for all 4 days. Anyone interested in my spare pass, please DM me. Ticket is "free, gratis and no expense".
    • agreed, the price vs gains it’s there.   unless you go china supercharger. Temu racing anyone?😂https://www.facebook.com/share/15nkfpsg7Z/?mibextid=wwXIfr that was one of the ones that popped up on my feed 😂
    • Bit of a long shot but if anyone has 4 of these laying around in new or near new condition. I will happily buy them off you.     https://skylinespares.com.au/product/stabilizer-door-glass-inner-new-8032404u03/?srsltid=AfmBOop6L5EgUFaHPHiVXoAhv5k8aJYwc77nGmoApp-hY03OiOsNVaOv Thanks 
    • I'm wondering is the Toyota and Mazda "collaboration" could see that new Toyota ???G20 ??? turbo engine that they have been showing off recently into a future MX5, apparently it's good for 400hp out of the box That could easily, possibly, be much better than the last collaboration between Toyota and Subaru with the boxer engine in the twins
