Oh so does that mean the motor has developed some kind of free play?

I got my partner to adjust the window it now drops ok but still with the horrid click.

Wot is actually making the click sound

does your driver side window and passenger side window both go up and down at the same speed? or is 1 slower than the other?

this is a very common problem with these cars, usually the motor generates alot of gunk and dirt inside the motor usually around the brushes. There is a DIY to clean them but usually the problem just comes back later so best to solve the issue right the first time.

BUT, in saying that i'm not sure if that problem is caused by the gunk and shit building up by the motor. I would PM Chris Rogers or wait til he replies here usually he chimes in on these topics regarding the power windows

From images I have seen online, the motor seems well closed off, so I would say all the "generated gunk" you see is basically bits that were once part of the motor itself... this of course is coming from someone who appears to have "solved" their window problems with a mild bang on the outside of the door with his hand. :wacko: twice...

Thanks guys for the support.

So wot is making the loud click sound it sounds like something is hitting the window itself and why is it dropping quickly in the first instant?

Do the cables stretch?

And the the 2 bottom threads that screw into the bottom of the window tracks with the flat blade slot in the end of them that hold the tracks to the silver plate that bolts the main part of the door?

How do I know how much to screw them in or out?

why are you touching them in the first place? that it the main adjustment for the angle of the glass. keep screwing with it and you will be up for a regulator as well. leave it alone.

They wer all loose n there was clear signs they had been tampered with/adjusted preiviously,kind of sucks but we will work thru it.

Do u know where they should be?

I don't mind buying a new regulator if it means everything will be spot on.

Do u know why it's dropping really quick for just the first part and making the horrible click sound/wot is physically making the sound.

So Chris can you just let me know what exactly the Regulator does? Need to know because if i replace my window motors i would like to be sure that it would solve my "auto" up and down feature of my drivers side because that's stopped working

graphite grease.

regulator is what holds and moves the glass in place. if all you have done is drop the 4 bolts holding it on then fine. if you have taken the 4 bolts off AND moved tbe bolt position then i cannot help you as i need the car un front of me. either way you need two motors at best. do the locks whilst you are there as those will fail next.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
