I'm 37 I remember both shows.

reason I asked - if he's mechanical enough to pull the door down then he can change the motor himself. its mainly 10mm bolts (lots of them) that have to be removed.

failing that - take it to nissan and let them do it. the motor is a Z33 item and door (although SLIGHTLY different shape) is a Z33 as well. expect a $500 bill (inc motor) for that. to tear one down and reassemble is 1.5 hrs roughly. (thats what it takes me.)

yeah...I knew that you knew that I knew that too! :) ...er....yeah!

Though with the current exchange rate, Bionic Man is prolly 7 and a half buh..and the door motor about 6 mill. :P

Good advice mate.

someone is proud of their product. they are not that expensive. last one I bought new was $350 locally.

nidn you since its tore down I would also do the regulator as well. saves tearing it down again. the reg is the worst part of it.

give me a chassis number to work with and I'll pull a part number for you. there is a revison on that motor as well. looks like they fixed what broke in them.

I tried "reconditioning" mine first but I think the problem with them is something else. After cleaning it up it would work going down but didn't have enough strength to close the window. Just put in a newy, it's a new part number so hopefully you won't have the same problem.

1.5 hours is reasonable I think if you stay focussed. 4 hours? you must of had a few beer brakes

someone post a shot of the inner door and I'll do a point and explain.

stephen,

never looked at the FSM for this thing. I dare say its 4 hrs from dry though. (to do a doot lock actuator does take longer - thats a BITCH to do!)

Oh, yes maybe I was thinking door lock actuators... not window winder.

Anyway, I still take my time, hate doing things twice, bescause I didn't locktite something, or adjust it, clean or polish it.

As for Beer "Brake" (sic), nope never during... just a Bourbon as I finish the job.

So Chris, the first one you did would be 4 hrs would it? It is just you have experience now though!

Hey Guys.

Ever had a problem with the windows moving while driving at high speeds (110kmh+)

My windows shift up and down when go over a bump or past a road train. The "open doors light" comes on aswell as the door lights and interior light.

Any ideas?

I think i might be to do with some sensor thats a bit touchy.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
