Local glaziers do not buy geniune glass replacements from Japan, they are manufactured locally, at least the front one i bought for my 33 was. Ask Nissan, but i think your best bet is to call around and see what is available. Even look at cars that are being dismantled; silva33 is wrecking a 33, may be worth sending him a pm (if you have a R33 :thumbsup:).

The windscreen goes in the front... the glass in the back is a rear window. (not windscreen)

If you can't find anything, give o'briens a call.

The use of "R32 GTST " in the subheading may be an indication that this isn't in reference to a 33.

I had to get one sent from a wreckers in Adelaide. The company doing it for me couldnt find one for me anywhere in Victoria... But then again they only would have phoned wreckers/importers not private people wrecking their cars.

Did the ring around

My windscreen guy said he'd just buy a used one and fit it.

So I rang my import wrecker and he said he didn't have one but he'd find one for me.

Rang Nissan. A brand new one is about $742 List price. Ex Japan. Which is cheaper than I expected

My new front windscreen costed me about $270 fitted, so i dare say i would not pay more than $250 for a second hand, unfitted, screen.

PM RowdyR32 he "may" be wrecking a 32, or he may have a good idea where to find one.

Just shop around...

    • It could be in the tune but in both cases it couldn't be completely solved or eliminated by some of the best tuners in victoria so I'm DOUBTFUL that it's in the tune or ECU but stranger things have happened of course. I've pondered that theory too but is there any theories that thinner and smaller ports overall would cause a turbo to spike? I would've thought it would just restrict it in general if it was small enough to make a difference. I wouldn't expect it to make a different at what is essentially sub 300kw at 4000rpm anyway. I think the next step is going to have to be the 6psi spring to rule out the idea that the gate is cracking open far too wide initially. At least that is the cheapest (free) thing to check initially.
    • I'm thinking it is skinny NA Neo port sizing and cams. Somehow.
    • -5’s did it. 8474 did it. Not hot side related. ECU related? 🤨🤪
    • Above you mentioned you only need to sand primer if there's an issue with it but with fillers it says the surface needs to be sanded to X grit beforehand. Does that sorta contradict that point as the primer hasn't been sanded yet? At the same time if I sand the primer, there's a good chance I'll expose the bare metal and I'm just chasing my tail at that point. Or I'll just use a sand sponge instead of sandpaper, it seems to be far finer in terms of abrasiveness as opposed to sandpaper. From what I understand, filler is like primer and needs scratches from the sandpaper to help it adhere to the panel. I realised the way I'm doing things is actually a bit counter productive as there's a chance after I put filler I will need to put epoxy primer again as opposed to putting the filler first and potentially no primer if I don't go to bare metal. Will keep this in my mind for the rest of my repairs.
    • Not without making up a new screamer pipe from scatch I don't think based upon the angles of the current return. Backpressure shouldn't be an issue though as the straight gate isn't affected by backpressure in the same way that a poppet valve is, and on top of that the exhast system is 4" all the way through so there should be minimal pressure if any to begin with.
