Any of you guys had any issues with your wipers?

There seems to be a little slop in the mechanism that when running on intermediate the wipers stutter on return. Not sure if its just the cheap blades or if its wear in the motor assembly its giving me the shi#s.

No trouble at all, infact the smoothest operation i've ever had. I know what you mean, the wipers on my truck are doing that when there's not much water on window, really annoying! I'd splash out on some new blades.

Just put a new blade on, I replaced it the first day I got my car...

As I was going

BOSCH Areo Twin blade is the best I have ever used...

450mm and 530mm is what you need for a perfect fit for our car...

i bough them for around $ 25 each at supercheap auto!

cheers.

I haven done any more research into my problem. I just dont use the intermitant. Its very weard as some times I think thyat it is the way it is controlled. Now and then I will get a quick 2 wipes in the int function.

I was going to pull them apart and see if I could reduce the slop.

By the time I get around to it I wont them anyway

Mine had this problem when I bought it, I pulled the mechanism out and found the plastic ball cup was worn/broken. I replaced them with rose joints, then they worked smooth.

I have one spare plastic cup now.

The assy isnt hard to get out to check.

The problem with me is that I dont have time to be messing around with it.

I will try to get onto it this weekend.

Whats a rose joint?

Thread dig, but very relevant.

I have a similar problem, and possibly the same cause.

When the wiper changes direction at the bottom of it's travel there is a clunk. Shifting the wiper myself lets me move it about 100mm at the tip. I expect there is a linkage or the above mentioned bush flogged out somewhere giving the joint play.

Any guides or information on removing the assembly from under the plastic cover?

Guys, this is a common problem for 2001-2003 stageas and skylines. you don't have so much dirt on the roads - so your wipers don't used to be as tired, as ours, and it is not common on your sterile roads)

you have to clean power distributor on the wiper's motor to remove gray dirt from the separating point oin the line, supporting the periodic duty!

just look for some pics

this is pic of my first Stagea. don't look at dirt - a wash engine room once in 3 month, but it has no affect...

That's not the issue with his though, the white bushes on the arms flog out on some cars allowing the blades to flop around like a slapper's arse. ;)

Never seen those contacts being a problem on the 80 or so V35's/Stagea's I have worked on, can't be a very common issue... Perhaps it's the snow buildup on the blades in winter over there causing excess current draw?

Scott, difficulties in translation) i missed with a problem)

the problem i wrote is only for 2001-2003 cars with mileage over 200 kkm - probably, you are right, hard work with snow matters

white bushes are too easy to find as a reason, for our severe circumstances)) - in Russia original spare arm with two bushes is around 10USD, replace and forget

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea, that is what I was getting at in my ramblings too. The nismo one actually is a 1.5 way and a 1 way. They don't do a *2* way because a true *2* way would have equal ramp angles. Or is that a true 1.5 way? Realistically I think a "1.5 way" does not actually exist. A diff can either lock in two directions or one. It also doesn't help that a LOT of people in Australia speak about 1.5 way diffs are referring to their 1 way diff.

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.
