Hey

Im stripping my car back atm to get it painted in a few months time. I just pulled the door seals off, where the window seals onto when the door is shut with the window up, and also the seal around the door the seals in the door jam and goes up around as high as the mirror.

Also my windscreen and rear window and rear quatar glass seals are all in not the best nick. Just wondering what you guys have done when painting your cars. I do not want to remove the rear 1/4 windows, but is it mandatory to get the rear quater seals off? Sorry I dont have any pics atm but ill get some up.

I got a quote from nissan on the seals around the windows and they want around $550 one side and $720 the other side. I found them on import monster last week for $300 plus fees, commision and freight, so around $550 delivered... still VERY EXY.

Any cheap ways out or anything that might help?

I cant help but I can rule out most places here in Mackay. Someone with a maroon 32 searched for the same seals at several places and found nothing... except at nissan for around the prices you said

I can double check but pretty sure ringing around Brisbane or somewhere might be a better option... Have you tried Nizwreck or something for some decent second hand ones? They seem to be a pretty rare part... if only there was somehting like rarespares that catered to import nissans etc

Yeah slack for second hand ones, I think they're all just as bad as eatchother because just having the doors shut and the windows pushing in seals flattens it out over the years... New seals would make it look nice with fresh paint

yeh ive seen them a bit wrecked around the mirror and water leaks in behind them and rusts away the little part that supports the mirror, I checked mine on the 33 when i had the side mirror off once and it looks good so maybe its only a problem with the 32's?

Id suggest looking down south, hopefully someone on here has found some cheap cause they are a fair rip off from nissan

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
