i got a series 1 drivers side window playing up, it doesnt move , the black box in the doro clicks and the passenger window and locks all work from the controls on the drivers side.

I would like to know if anyone has had a problem like this and would know where to get a new motor fitted. I'm in brisbane @ belmont.

dude, i'm from brissie too and i'm having the same problem..... window works, but when it gets to the top of it's travel it makes a god-awful grinding noise until I stop it, and then once in a while it seizes up and doesn't move at all.

so yeah..... what he said!! ^ ^ ^

Yep ive got the same problem.. my frend took the motor out of it and hooked it up directly to a battery and it stoped seizing then it ***in seized wen we put it back in and now my window i stuck 3/4 way up :D .... and i had the grinding noise xcept it done it like 2 or 3 time going upwards.. had to pull the window up past it..just go to a wrecked and ask for electric window motor n take out jsut the motor... frend got one for liek 50 dolars

if you all want pics of how he took the motor out from the door i can get some for you i think he done some up... jsut say yes and ill try and get them..funny thing also was that my window was out of its runners which was weird cos the only way it culd of done that was if it was totally pulled out..

well i could only see that theres one nut hold the motor in, i undone aht nut and the motor wont move, so It would be great if you did have some pics, would make things alot easy for all of us. and its great to hear that it was only $50 for a motor, atleast I have something to barter with at the wreakers.

thanks for all the help so far :D

I live in wakerley next to gumdale, just down the road from the BP at tingapla.

was over near kelvin grove, till i got caught speeding, and had to move closer to the wharfs (i work there) I just finished work(and yes i was ****ing around for 2 hours because i didnt want to work :D

yeah im up for a cruise when i get my license back :D

nissan australia sells and fits these...

I had to replace mine last year

If i may ask, how much did Nissan charge for the parts? Does your window motor sound quieter now.

All R33's ive ever been in have fairly loud window motors.

    • 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?
