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.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
