Just what you want to see after returning to your car after 14hrs of work, one of your windows broken and you boost gauge and air freshener stolen. God damn I'm sore and angry.

Anyways, I will now be needing a new Rear left window for my four door r32 Skyline. I know this is going to be a hard part to come across, but would anyone know where one is , or how to get one. I have thought of the obvious of trying to get one through Nissan spare parts, but the costs and time for delivery would make this a last resort.

Any other ideas??

You have AutoGlass out in Oz don't you? As here in the UK I work for AutoGlass and we can get the glass for the Skylines... It is made by the same people whomake the OE stuff your car came with so it is exactly the same quality and tint and everything, so give them a try... I can't remember if they trade under a different name in Oz but whatever name they are using - they will have this logo with them;

Might be a different name but the red and yellow bit at the top will be the same....

Well when the thief is busy making his choice of whether to go for your stereo or your air freshener, you could run back to the car and slap him into next week :D

Nothing's a guarantee your car will be left untouched, these days. But a good alarm will hopefully deter them.

Hey that Air fresherner kicked ass, it was silver, had a fan in it and had Supra written on it.

Some on must have spooked them while they were in my car because they left behind a big screw driver and some red eletrical tape. Wierd huh.

Well still on the hunt for my rear passanger window.

Called Instant they basicly laughed and wished me luck. Now i am looking to New Zealand to find one, and they have been real helpful.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
