Hi , my 96 GTS25T coupe has a problem with the drivers side window . It tries to rise and fall squiff and I've been told that the windows sit on plastic clips which can break in time .

The other weekend I tried to remove the door trim by unscrewing the screws underneath and the one under the plastic bung higher up . It moves but something is holding it towards the middle of the door . We tried to get the plastic section with the elec window switches to unclip but it won't let go in the middle . We didn't want to force it and risk breaking this section .

Can someone whos been inside R33 coupe doors please tell us how to get this door trim off and what part of the window mechanism is causing the window glass to fall at crazy angles .

Happy new year as well , cheers Adrian .

Yes we got the door latch surround and bolt out but the main PITA is the fact that the "handle tub" is located inside a horizontal "D" shaped bracket bolted to the door .

Anyway we got it out and found that the rear linkage ball pivot had popped out of its nylon track guide socket .

One of the plastic gadgets that goes through a hole in the front lower section of the window glass has broken so I'll have to see the local Nissan import spares joint (John Robinson Rockdale)to see the parts diagram and order the bits .

A .

What my car has done is broken the front nylon mount where the horizontal bracket is fixed through the hole in the glass section .

These cars use a weird system where the nylon sliders attach at the scissor arms and the window is anchored to a horizontal bracket which is a channel for the sliding nylon bits .

If anyone can show me the section from the workshop manual of the internals of R33 Coupe door with elec windows I'd appreciate it .

Cheers Adrian .
