Last time I got a crack on my windscreen on my previous car, I just called up my insurance company and they gave me a free windscreen. I think i'm entitled to one per year. Might be worth seeing if your insurance company can do the same. Btw, they sent me to Windscreens O'Brien.

Thanks for the fast replay guys.

I have called up a guy in sydney that might be able to get the windscreen I'm waiting for him to call me back.

Originally i have sourced a screen from a import place but it was for a coupe.... and they are slightly different from the sedans , so if anyone has a sedan and had the windscreen changed can you tell me if the screen is hard to source?

Cheers

Just an update guys

I have call 3 places yesterday

M&M Windscreens

O'Briens

National Windscreens Group

So far all of them have told me they will need to call me back since they can only source the coupe windscreen and don't have any sedan screens in stock.

Ok guys

The guys and M&M have been able to get me a screen , but the cost is around 450 installed.

I know that a bit expensive but i can't risk driving for too long on the road with a cracked windscreen.

I have had no replay from O'Briens and National Windscreens Group so far and the guys at Novus windscreens were the worst didn't even bother getting my details just asked for a contact number and said they will call back.

I have made a apointment to have the screen replaced on thursday.

I'll updated you guys after it is all done.

Cheers

Well its either $450 or risk the troubles in the long run for a cracked windscreen.

$450 sounds ok, prices may have gone up since I got mine done in 2005 and its a R32 as yours is a R34...

Have you tried to give Nissan a call? See what they say, but Im sure to say $450 is a better price then what Nissan will quote.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
