Do all R33 GT-R's have rear window wipers ?


Recommended Posts

No, absolutely definitely not. As far as I can see there is no pattern to it.

I have seen V-Specs with and without

Non-V-Spec with and without.

They were obviously just an option (or a delete option).

Though I guess N1's don't have them...

I'm pretty sure rear wipers were an option on the whole range (maybe not N1's), my old GTSt didn't have one, and didn't have the controls on the stalk either so it wasn't a replaced rear window jobbie.... Like most things skyline, it seems you could pretty much create whatever you wanted by checking or unchecking the boxes from the factory... Having said that I have not noticed any 33 GTR's in my area without a rear wiper.....

Are you sure it's not because they may have busted the rear windscreen & not bothered with the expense to replace the rear windscreen to factory specs with room for the wiper?

Absolutely positive :D

If you were being tight like that then why would you change the wiper stalks or get blanking plates for where the rear wiper controls sit (I don't know where it is)

Im sure all 33 gtr have them. Positive on N1's not having them. Had to purchase a washer bottle from nissan recently and they only listed 2 part numbers. GTR/Vspc or N1.

N1 didnt come with a second pump.

Whilst on N1, did anyone know that the N1 bonnet is actually different from the rest of the GTR? :)

Mine hasn't got one either, though I wish it did because it shits me when its been raining and it's hard to see out the back.

i agree with the fact that it is hard to see out the back when it rains and all the water sits on the window and doesnt move. my car has one and im happy it does because of the stated reason. So, i thought that it would have been standard... :)

    • Yeah I'm terrible with understanding wiring. Outside of being given install instructions, I have a hard time deciphering diagrams and terminology. I have the wiring manual and its all hieroglyphs lol
    • Does the old one line up OK if you try to put it back in? In the 32 (different geometry) it is hard to reinsert the ball joint with the sway bar and spring attached. But ultimately.....this wouldn't be the first aftermarket part that is not right....
    • Yep and yep ! Every time I now take out the R33 I get a lot of thumbs up as well, and my car was also a daily until last year. Still get people coming up and asking about it. A while ago the most memorable being a V8 commodore driver who approached me in the bunnings carpark and asked me why the were so fast and what kind of V8 it had in it. Couldn't resist and told him they were only a straight six the same capacity as the 161 red motor. The look on his face was legendry. However the shine has gone off cause as well as the appreciation there is now a lot of harassment from other drivers in there VW/Nline/Ae86 with body kits or whatever the hell they are, while all I want to do is cruise.( well sort of drive with spirt ) I always try and get the hell away from them by driving slow, putting on my lawn bowling hat and leaning over the steering wheel to look as old fart as possible.
    • There really isn't enough to help remotely....the nav screen likely takes it's visual feed from another unit that is not plugged in properly now (that is how the cima worked at least). Sounds like at least the reverse cam works. It is a possibility the screen is dead of course, minor knock while it was apart. I had to replace the Cima screen because it would not display anything in the morning when below 0.  
    • Yeah, I get that. I try to be as cost-efficient as possible with cars, and typically prefer to buy them at the bottom of their depreciation curve. I was looking at those Bilsteins too as they're roughly in the same price bracket as the BC's - lack of adjustability and being soft put me off, not that I want anything too hard. That's my issue with the Skyline, it's too expensive and it's reflected in my driving. I don't mind going full pelt as long as there's a gravel trap to catch me. Really, proper safety equipment is needed for total confidence. Well this just turned up for the BMW. I'll try and get the front together tomorrow and take some pics of the absolutely horrid rear end; perhaps I'll have a crack at the rear on Wednesday. I need to make the car drivable before the weekend as I'll be driving it over to London.
