Wicked Tint

Im looking to keep my car as original as possible, looking for an original toyota deck with bluetooth. i gather if someone has done a sound system upgrade they would have it sitting at home waiting to be used. Pref sydney, doesnt have to be a stacker i dont mind the single cd option with the usb port, if its a stacker ill take that off ya hands too. MUST have bluetooth i do alot of driving for work. This is what it looks like... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ORIGINAL-TOYOTA-6-CD-PLAYER-BLUETOOTH-/320762376294?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4aaeed7066#ht_500wt_1156 If there is many for sale i think my mate will grab one for his rolla too :)

a silver tivo tonight about 920 @ liverpool, turned left onto hoxton park rd... was gonna open it up as u turned off but was on the phone... maybe next time!!!

Yeah I'm from NSW, pulled over in Kings Cross on a Thursday arvo after work, I asked y i was pulled over & his excuse was the car looked 'too hotted up' and I was driving a 'boom box' wateva that is. First thing he did was check the height of the car, the wheel thing they use just didn't make it under the piping, however I did have 2 x small ladders & tools in the back (had to use my car for work that day, smh.) my car isn't loud tho, it's deep. I'm hoping I dnt receive anything as experienced people I've talked to say I won't get defected as if I was to they would have given a yellow or red label. But I'll just have to see Kings Cross is the worst, i went thru there on my bike about 6 months ago with 5 other bikes we all got letters in the mail to goto EPA, had to take our pipes off put the stockers back on and take it for the test. The guy who did the test said Kings Cross keeps him open. Costed us about $60-80 each. I can imagine with the car would be alot more headache then a bike. The day after it was cleared put the original pipe back on and did the biggest wheel stand to celebrate hahaha. Good luck with it all, hope they dont get you for everything.

Some professional advice when choosing your window tint. Check the laws in your local state, and ask the company if there have been many problems with darker then legal films being defected. I no in Western Australia a 35% VLT film on the factory glass was coming in darker then legal and there was a problem. Find out about the company your choosing to do the job, there rep, how long been in the industry, how long the tinter has been in the industry (No good if the company has been around for 35 years and the tinter has been doing it for 6 months) Choose your film wisely, Carbon v Semi Metal v Full Metal. Whats the difference? We all know from the past dyed films faded and went purple bubbled etc. The new carbon films are a new name for the old Dyed products, they are more colour stable now but from experience they havnt fixed the bubble issue, carbon also doesnt have the best heat rejection. I would expect a lifetime of <5 years. Semi Metal the most comon on the market, a good balance between Metal and Dye, better heat rejection then carbon, colour will be black, and alot longer lasting i cant recall the last time i seen a semi metal film bubble. It will slightly fade after about 5 years but wont fade alot, wont loose its colour either. Full metal, wont come in anything darker then 15% will always have a shiny finish like a semi mirror finish. Great for heat rejection, long lasting film, also the most expensive on the market. Do you need a carbon/dyed film on your rear screen? Depends on the car.. If your car has an ariel in the rear window this MAY effect you. The metal films CAN effect AM band radio. Not every car will be effected. The metal in the film will only effect if the rear screen has a bad earth. How will you no if you do, the tinter can put a sample on the rear screen of a semi metal & metal film on the window to test it, if you dont need it try not to use it will need to be re-done in a couple of years. Back Yard v Shop. Your choice, do your research, feel comfortable with the installer, look at some of there work. The key points are price and warranty. If your getting the right price with someone with the right film you can hit the jackpot. There is dodgy in every business but window tinting business is repeat word of mouth work. Most people will go back to the same place if there happy with there last job. If i can help with any more technical questions feel free to ask away. Im not here to promote myself in anyway. Im here to help educate anyone about any issue. Happy tinting B)

Looking to buy one of these, ideally if someone has a second hand one, or someone can make the adaptor cheapish then i can put a k&n pod on it. Pref in sydney, but open to all areas. All help would be much appreciated. If someone makes them and the price is right, ild prob grab 2 :)

i get this problem from time to time aswel, although mine only seems to happen when i do alot of driving, ive inspected the pads i still have plenty of meat on them, gonna look into some different pads. My problem is too inconsistant to be a rock or debris in the caliper, it only happens when its hot or been driving for hours, soon as it cools down its fine.. B)

did they have the black ones? can you post the link please i want to get some :)

na wasnt me then, sometimes i get down there on a thursday to catch up with the bikes at kks.
