I need the part number for for front windscreen mould. Rang nissan but the guy was not sure if it was the correct one.

Quoted $329 :P

Need to check price before I rip out the old one to paint my car.

If too expensive, I have might use an aftermarket one for $20.

Actually while you are at it, can you provide the the rear hatch mould as well. It is in better condition and may be able to be reused.

Waits for CHOOK to respond :P

Thanks

Hi Darrin,i had quote on there as had new GEN NISSAN screen put in $250 for both the black mould`s i have part number some where will dig it out & post up if that`s any help Dude,cheer`s chuckie.i was luckie that they saved mould`s,

to put an after market mould on you will have to take the window out, unless you do a dodgy and cut the back off and have it fly off in 6 months time.

there are two parts to the mould, the retainer which is double sided taped on to the body, and the actual mould which goes into the retainer.

If you are painting the car you will need to take the retainer off, to do that mould comes out window comes out then the retainer. If you take the retainer

off you will need to buy a new one, you can usually reuse the mould if your careful!

or you could just mask up the moulds

That is half true. The trim setup is the same as the R33's. When I painted my R33 I left the front and rear screens in, removed the mould and left the retainer.

Once painted I had the 1/4 windows refitted by a windscreen mob and they fitted a generic T shape strip form a commadore for $20 each. it looked different the factory one, but did the same job.

From memory, to replace the front and rear moulds and retainers was going to cost approx $650 for the R33.

I can't mask up the trims as that looks really doggy plus it is getting a full colour change so colour needs to continue under the trim

I will get the windscreen mob out this week to remove the 1/4 windows and see what they can offer or do.

cant picture how a 33 is set up but there is no point removing the mould and not the retainer as the mould covers the edge of the screen and the retainer covers the body. The aftermarket mould that they used is off a vl (im guessing) if thats the case they are going to have to work miricals to get it to work

down the side pillers.

good luck, what colour you going?

good luck, what colour you going?

Finally got onto my parts man that knows what he is doing

Front screen mould p/n 72752-0V010 $105 ex Melbourne

Front screen retainer p/n 72725-0V000 $84 ex Melbourne

Rear screen mould p/n 90386-0V000 $94 ex Japan

At these prices I will go genuine

Still flipping a coin on colour choice, was think bayside blue but might now go Ford Breeze.

I will get the shell undercoated this week end hopefully.

Thanks chook for the fast response.

    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
    • Thanks for the reply mate. Well I really hope its a hose then not engine out job
    • But.... the reason I want to run a 60 weight is so at 125C it has the same viscosity as a 40 weight at 100C. That's the whole reason. If the viscosity changes that much to drop oil pressure from 73psi to 36psi then that's another reason I should be running an oil that mimics the 40 weight at 100C. I have datalogs from the dyno with the oil pressure hitting 73psi at full throttle/high RPM. At the dyno the oil temp was around 100-105C. The pump has a 70psi internal relief spring. It will never go/can't go above 70psi. The GM recommendation of 6psi per 1000rpm is well under that... The oil sensor for logging in LS's is at the valley plate at the back of  the block/rear of where the heads are near the firewall. It's also where the knock sensors are which are notable for 'false knock'. I'm hoping I just didn't have enough oil up top causing some chatter instead of rods being sad (big hopium/copium I know) LS's definitely heat up the oil more than RB's do, the stock vettes for example will hit 300F(150C) in a lap or two and happily track for years and years. This is the same oil cooler that I had when I was in RB land, being the Setrab 25 row oil cooler HEL thing. I did think about putting a fan in there to pull air out more, though I don't know if that will actually help in huge load situations with lots of speed. I think when I had the auto cooler. The leak is where the block runs to the oil cooler lines, the OEM/Dash oil pressure sender is connected at that junction and is what broke. I'm actually quite curious to see how much oil in total capacity is actually left in the engine. As it currently stands I'm waiting on that bush to adapt the sender to it. The sump is still full (?) of oil and the lines and accusump have been drained, but the filter and block are off. I suspect there's maybe less than 1/2 the total capacity there should be in there. I have noticed in the past that topping up oil has improved oil pressure, as reported by the dash sensor. This is all extremely sketchy hence wanting to get it sorted out lol.
