My current b pillar window seals look like Clark Rubber specials, I knew they looked haggard but yesterday tried to wind down the rear windows and found the seals wouldn't allow it :nyaanyaa:

Highly doubt they are still available new (please prove me wrong), will settle for good cond used if anyone has any they would like to sell.

I think another member ordered the whole 1/4 window off yahoo.jp or import monster (the seal wnt be new, but still in heaps good condition)

I reckon someone should get a custom batch made up, do a group buy. (I would even buy a set for my coupe when I eventually get one)

Recently DR30 parts have been listed on eBay. Seller was in SA. Marc or Dennis may have his contact details, I think they've bought parts from him. Looked like he was parting out a car.

J,

When do you need these rubber seals for?

I'm putting together an order on KRS at the moment and if your interested and can wait till it's done, I'll bring in a set for you in the same carton.

Cheers,

Dennis

I bought new seals from Nissan a few years back and they weren't hideously expensive - but the part I couldn't get was the metal frame that runs on the front edge of the window (mine were a bit rusty). Apparently it's sold as part of the window glass, and that's NLA...

We managed to refurbish one of them and I got hold of another window which had one in better (not perfect) condition. I need to do some more work on it, because surface rust is starting to show.

    • 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?
