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.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
