Hey guys,

I have a 95' GTR V-Spec, and ever since I've had it it's had no rear wiper, which I find more aesthetically pleasing than the ones I see with them. However, I've never actually seen another one that doesn't have one?

I know the N1's came without a rear wiper, just wondering if it was some kind of option/feature? Or probably after market?

Cheers.

Do you have the swtich to use the rear wiper?

Has the entire rear wiper mechanism been removed?

Could just be a custom job or get you build plate and VIN numbers and post it on SAU and someone can decode it for you.

There is a thread called "VINS, You Wanted Fast"... Or something like that, just do a search and post the numbers in there.

thats pretty odd.....

i dont know why manufactures dont put them on alot of cars these days.....even Merc & BMWS...alot of the fords and holdens dont either

and if yuo notice...the S15 200sx AUS full import has no wiper.....but the JDM Silvia S15 has.....

im assuming that the japanese climate is different as it snows there etc.

but still...i think all cars should have them....

well as the other guy said....get some info of the car....

worse comes to worse it could be a custom job.....or maybe a repair from a crash?

but anyways hopefully its nothing major.....

if you really want one...id say go to a wrecker find a R33 and get one installed DIY with the wiring diagram.

but im not sure if R33 GTS-T have the exact same one.

Mine doesn't have one either. It is a '95 GTR V-Spec.

There's no hole in the back glass so the rear window is specific to one's that have it or don't. My car does have the same controls on the wiper control but does nothing if you turn it on (obviously).

^^Yeah the ADM S15 did not come with rear wipers but had those ugly red brake reflectors on the rear bar.

Just off topic but in reguards to the ADR requirements, my R32 GTR is a '90 model and did not need side indicators on the front guards but needed a rear parcel shelf brake light, but from '91 models and up, you needed side indicators but no need for rear parcel shelf brake light.

It doesn't look right to me either.

I want to remove mine.

is there a stock way of removing it without buying new glass? some kind of stopper for the hole?

Yes there is a way to remove it and plug up the hole with a bung, you can buy a Moonface Racing rear wiper hole bung from www.rhdjapan.com, thats what im using on my gtr at the moment, just remove the wiper motor etc and put the moonface bung in its place, looks alot cleaner than having a rear wiper.

whatever you do, dont try and yank it off by pulling upward with as much force as possible, or you'll be left with a shitload of broken glass!

push downward on the centre of the wiper, and gently pull the other end up that connects the wiper to the cog on the wiper motor

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
