I need to get a hold of the little black box that sits in the drivers door that has the relay controls for the drivers side window.

The dang relays in the box have died and decided to leave my window down as a result.

So if anyone has one laying around, along with the actual drivers side control switchs in working condition, please let me know.

Thansk for you help guys :)

God Bless,

Nate

hey nate,

My window relay is starting to make strange noises, and I've heard that there are different versions of the "black box" that you're talking about and you have to make sure if you get a new one that it has the same serial number as your old one.

Can you confirm this? Or did you just buy one and it worked? :)

Thanks,

Jason.

Jase,

the serial number was different... the lady couldn't tell me if it can off a r33 or r32. i threw it in the window and it worked sweet.

Costs 66inc GST.

I think alot of people are starting to get many problems with the auto windows only on the drivers-side... must be some common problem... who knows... drives you nuts when it happens though :) if it happens again, i will be making my oen relay and switch box as i know that the motor is always ok.

if you are ever stuck though with the window down, just throw a 12v dc supply on the motor and depending on which polarity you give it, it will go up or down.

best of luck mate, and let me know if you need anything else

God Bles,

Nate

Thanks Nate,

Can I confirm we're talking about the relay with the actual switches on top as well? My drivers switch (that one that says auto for the window) is dicky and the relay makes weird noises when you wind the window down ...

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
