Hey guys,

The rubbers around both my front and rear windscreens have perished over the 13years my car has been alive. As far as I know, they are not leaking yet.

Does anyone know where I can go to get them replaced at a reasonable price?

Cheers for any help :P

...... LOL

If you do find someone, let me know. I need to replace all mine on the Ceffy and I'm thinking the stealership is the only option for such an uncommon import.

I imagine you'd have a better chance finding one with a windshield mob for an R33 since theyre about as common as slappers in Northbridge on a Saturday night.

Dealerships should be able to source them. They are a two piece mould, one part sticks to the body then a second piece clips in after the glass is fitted.

We can fit an aftermarket rubber mould but it will never be spot on and be aware that the glass will have to come out to do the job.

This means your windscreen will almost certainly break, requiring a new one, and although a good fitter will not break toughened rear glasses on removal, they have an "all care but no responsibilty" policy.

This moulding is however purely asthetic, the urethane is what seals the glass, so they can perish all they want and not affect the seal.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
