Gday,

Im preparing to strip my R32 gtst back to a shell so that i can have it resprayed. Im going to do all the prep work, and then tow it over to a spray painters to finnish it off.

My question is; Does anyone know what non genuine rubbers are able to be substituted for the factory R32 front and rear windscreen rubbers? Ive heard that some commodore rubbers will fit and im not prepared to pay $520 each for genuine Nissan ones! Also, ill pull the rear quarter windows out as well, so ill either have to remove the rubbers undamaged, or source some new ones. Does anyone know where i can get some of these as well (non genuine or cheap Nissan?).

Thanks,

Shaun.

the windscreen people will know... just take the rubber to them.?

what colour are you goin with the car?

When I repainted my R33 I had to get a new windscreen as well

The windscreen company used a mould similar to a my VX commadore and replaced the rear aswell

Cost about $30 for each.

Do they look the same though or does it look a bit weird...like they are not the right ones.

I am in the same position and will definately do this if they come up allright.

Cheers

Best thing is to drop into a windscreen shop and see what they have

Most the strips just come on a roll and cost about $5/m

Much better than $600-700 for new ones, by the time you buy the inner and outer

Attached is a pic of my old R33

You can zoom in on the front screen to what they look like

They do look different, but not out of place.

Only thing wrong with them, after about 18-24 months of being in the sun, they were showing some signs of sun damage. But at roughly$30-40 you could replace them.

Rear quarter window outer is bonded to the glass, buy new seal - comes with free glass attached.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!

      Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?

      You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
