failed window guides?-bad scratches


Recommended Posts

Howdy,

My drivers side window has some bad sratches in two places that seem to me to coincide with it scraping when going up and down. My passenger side window has started this too.

Could this be the guides worn or something? They are electric of course.

I want to get my car tinted, but I should get this fixed before I get it done.

Does anyone know how to fix this!?!?

Thanks for any help in advance...

Mines the same.. its got 2 scratches on the drivers-side window... gives me the sh!ts!!!

Anyway you can stop it from happening??

its pretty common.. cos ive seen a few skylines with the same sh!tty scratches..

you can get them p;olished out, dunno how much it costs, but as for fixing it dont try it yourself, i tried and tightened the window runners too tight when i put it back, im sure they are now clean but whenh iu over tightened i scratched my tint a bit on the inside and now have to get the window re-tinted, so we'll see if that gets scratched when im done getting it replaced :P

Sounds like the scratches are on the outside, basically your options are...

If they are not deep Windscreen O'brien or someone similar maybe able to buff them out and fix it

Or just get new windows if they cant

Basically your seals would have a gap somewhere and when crap gets down there and rubs against the windows it causes this light scratching. I have the same but havnt bothered to fix it, however I did enquire how and my options I received are what I listed above

Good Luck

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
