my car came with a pair , but they are falling apart. cant say they are doing what they meant to as they are really small slim ones not like the ones on camry (those one on camry really block the rain with window opens).

anyone have xperience with weather shield? i m not sure if i should keep them or take them off

had them on mine wen i first got it. they were all cracked and dalling apart and they were the first things to come off :D

but wen u pull them off theres some uuuuuuuugly double sided foam shit that stays on the lining around the window. alot of work to get it all off. use Wax and Grease Remover, soak it into the stuff, use a plastic scraper and work work work. lol

mine still looks bad.

but it looks better than having the pissy lil weather shields on.

this is the only reason im thinkin of keeping them , as i hate to get rid of those residual. looks hard enoguh for me to not think about it.

anyone knows where i can get those clip thingy for the shields , ive checked most of the big names automotive store, nothing that small.

Personally i think theres a ting of JDM feel with those shields. but yea it will only looks good if them shields are in good condition , if they arent in good condition , best to get rid of them.

MRGTT: ill let u know if i wanna sell them , at this stage im keeping them. tho i think you can get them from yahoo japan?

well they cant be that big cuz if you look closely you wouldn't be able to open the door without hitting, but im guessing they are there because there is no frame on the window.

Because there is no frame in the window the wind can get in behind it, if it is strong and you are going fast it can flex your window outwards. Not sure if this would be the case on a skyline but is for other model vehicles.

I love the weather shilds on the ceffy (being a grandpa car and all). Just gotta tint em black to make em blend with the car a bit better.

My driver side one ripped right off on a Melbourne to Sydney drive tho, so on the lookout for a replacement.

Dunno about the ones on the skyline... being a frameless door design it kinda wrecks the effect.

Are they the things that go above the window or whatever? I got some on my car, i'm going to get them taken off when my car gets resprayed. I was just gonna chuck mine out, but if anyone wants them they can have them lol.

    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
