Hey Guys,

Im after some direction on how to take out the rear qtr window on a r33 gts t series 1.5 (1995)

Im replacing seals on my car mainly as its a 1995 model and its probably a good thing to do and i personally think little things like this is what makes a great car.

So just wondering how do i pop out the rear qtr window?

Also any ideas on obtaining orginal nissan seals? North side nissan? or should i just go to a window shop and get generic ones? I would assume the generic ones would do the job as well as the original.. however if the orginal seals arent priced through the roof i will purchase them.

Cheers for the help guys (again),

Brendan

I've never done it, but you need to take the seal out with the window or it becomes useless.

I would never get generic window seals. Your best bet would be to buy replacement quarter windows with the seals attached. I have one that was left over on our Project car if you are struggling to find one, as getting them out cleanly with the seals in tact can be quite tricky.

1/4 windows are removed from the inside, they are glued on like any window and the outer black area is from memory part of the window structure - to remove you pull out all the interior trim near it, then with a 90 degree blade, cut the window sealant from the inside between the body and the glass.

yep what craved said had mine done today and then the window seals have to be replaced and then reglued in

How much did you purchase the seals for? Do u actually cut the old seals? is that why they cant be re used? (Just out of curiosity as the whole point of taking the window out is to replace them. lol.)

and what did u use to glue them back in? I would like to avoid changing the window has my car is tinted which means i need to get that area re tinted again...

tint should not be affected, unless you slip :yes:

front and rear seals would be replaced as by now they are hard and get destroyed when removing them. i used BA falcon generic on mine, looks great.

Side quarter glass as i mentioned is normally 1 piece with the metal surround and the glass. seal on them is just the sealant holding them in place.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
