I bought the Bosch H595 Specific Fit Rear Wiper Blade as well as the AR18U and AR21U. Worked out to $55 delivered to Australia. The last time I bought Bosch wiper blades in Canberra I paid almost $80 at Ricerbarn, so I am happy with my savings.

I just hope the rear blade is the right one!!

Do you have a preferred application method for rainex? I always manage to go overboard and it seems to make my wiper blades stick a bit.

Wipe it on in circular motion, making sure you overlap.

Then mist water on, an wipe over with a handful of folded paper towel. That gets rid of the streaky residue.

Sorry to bring up a slightly past use-by thread. Searched for Bosch aerotwins for a r32 on that wiperblades.co.uk website and it seems that it uses AR18U all around?!! Front 2 and rear all the same?? And anyone used a flat blade to replace their rears? Somehow I think the website has wrong data...

I'm sure the driver side is meant to be longer. I can't tell since mine already had aftermarket ones (refills you get from any auto store). Can anyone confirm?

If I could guess it would 20" aero for driver, 18" aero for passenger and 18" normal blade for rear. I would advise people to measure their originals if they can before buying.

My C34 S2 stagea uses the following

Front

1x 510 long

1x 460 long

Rear

1x 300 long

Sizes are approx. you should measure yours before you order.

I'll be looking at replacing mine soon too, the aero flat types look effective, I know I have these on my VW Golf as standard factory fitted and they work great.

Or to the too young to understand imperial;

Front

1x 510 long 20 inch

1x 460 long 18 inch

Rear

1x 300 long 12 inch

You had metric then you just added inches - that's imperial..

Just thought I might add. Ended up buying trico flat blades from autobahn to suit an r32 gtst. 20" fronts and 18" rear according to the book they had. Got em but not fitted yet. I will order the bosch for next time I reckon..should be cheaper from that wiperblades site depending on shipping of course.

Bosch AeroTwin Wipers can be bought from http://mycarperformance.com.au/wiper-blades/bosch-aero-twin-wipers.html they are $46 + postage

They also carry a cheaper brand for $26 delivered which have good reviews on ebay at http://stores.ebay.com.au/My-Car-Performance

Well I bought the following wipers from Ebay for my series 2 C34

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/QEEP-AERO-WINDSCREEN-WIPERS-NISSAN-SKYLINE-R31-R32-R33-R34-R35-PAIR-/300788425287

Qeep aero style for skyline. Seller was streettunecomau, Only $10 + $10 delivery, stock in NSW, had them in a few days,

1x 18 in , 1x21 in. Took 5 mins to fit.

Highly recommended. They are single blade type.

I wouldn't pay $60+ for a very similar product.

Lol I like how the installation video is for the Bosch wiperblades in the ebay ad. Have you compared to the Bosch or Trico single blade types? Seems cheap enough for me to compare to as well.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
