which wiper blades for r33????

[Dr Boost]

Its time to put new wiper blades on the beast and of course the wiper blade companies dont list imports. Has anyone out there struck some that fit the r33 properly? I thought maybe maxima or 300zx blades from the same era might fit. Any help would be great.

Oh, c'mon, just go to your local K'mart auto or Repco and get the wiper blade refill, 60cm will do, just measure your old one, cut the new one to correct length, and put it in yourself. Very easy to do.

You've got heaps of choices, twin blades, silicon blades, triple blades, red, green, whatever available.

how much it cost?? and what do u recommend is the best one??

[rs73]

ranging from $8 to $25 for a set of 3, bargain cheap hey? imagine how much it would cost you if you ask a dealer to do it for you, like at least $20-30 for a pair of fronts.

for brands, try and error, some brands are noisier on your windscreen and some are quieter... cant remmeber what I use but it's abit noisy, will try another brand next time. I just remember what the packaging look like

The blades are 6mm wide. The other option is 8mm but these are too big. The ones I bought the other day fit both though (they have 2 tracks). They are Aunger rubber coated in graphite. I wanted the silicone ones but they only came in bright blue which I thought looked too ricey.

I forgot to buy a rear wiper

because they looked too ricey?? LOL .. u make a point not to make ur car ricey .. i think u might have ricephobia!!
