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.

    • But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?
    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
