post-28048-1144583640.jpgI have a 1981 Gloria Brougham (Turbo L20 engine) pillarless four door. Very stock but a real limo. She has only done a genuine 50,000kms. Three years ago some bast@rd broke in to her by smashing the driver side front window. The car has sat in my garage ever since gathering dust, and quite frankly she is too good for that, so I have decided to put her back on the road. Problem is I haven’t been able to source a replacement window through any of the sources I have tried.

This is a stab in the dark, but is there anyone out there that might have an idea of where I could try, or maybe knows of one that might be for sale. I have checked through Nissan and a replacement is just not available through the spares network.

I have tried to make a replacement out of Lexan but because the car is pillarless it needs the rigidity of glass to make it happen.

I have posted a picture of what the window looks like if it helps.

Would love to hear from anyone that might be able to help. E-mail me at [email protected] or phone 0403 215 073.

Cheers and fingers crossed!!!!!

Peter

    • Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on 
    • You can also remove the veins from the HICAS portion of your existing pump. 
    • Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
    • Cheers, yeah it was recently imported, is the actual Nissan not an Infiniti so will have to do some chasing around for parts.    Any ideas if the side skirts from a Q50 would fit on the 400r?
