Hey Guys and Gals,

I have a small, but very annoying problem with my Stagea. The passenger door seal is stuffed, and everytime I either wash my baby or it rains, a very small amount of water leaks inside. Its a 1997 S1 Dayz. I have used the search and for sale functions, but to no avail. I am based in Perth, and was wondering if anyone knew where I could source one? I have tried Japwreck in Cannington but they had no idea what I was talking about.

Any help would be awesome

Mark

Hi Mark

When you say "it's stuffed" exactly how is that? Is it torn? If it isn't it maybe just window adjustment.

If it is damaged then try the dealer that you got it from, as most dealers (importers) will help source parts to THEIR customers.

Otherwise, Nisswreck may be able to help. email [email protected]

Or check out their website.

There are a few wrecking around Oz.

NZ could also be a good place, the rubbers aren't heavy. So try www.trademe.nz

Good Luck

Try Japwreck in Beckenham - I dunno if he has one, but the bloke there used to have a S1 - I don't even know if he still has it, but at least you can rest assured he knows what you are on about >_<

do you have sun roofs? are you sure it's door seals?

I have a leak from my sunroof, runs down to passenger footwell at the a pillar right next to the computer, only when I park nose downhill. Aparrently there are drains from the sunroof that can block and cause a leak

Thanks for your help everyone. I really appreciate it.

To answer some of your questions:

Appealing: No its not torn, there just seems to be a gap from the top of the window to the top of the door.

Duncan: No sunroofs on mine, so thats not the problem :) Thanks for the suggestion though.

I will try some of you guys and gals suggestions.

Again, thankyou all for your help. Wish me luck.

Mark

HI Mark.... in that case probably won't be solved by putting in another.

Try re-aligning the window, you might get a little more height on it, more often though it is the angle of the window. You might be suprised what you can adjust out.

The other thing that is also likely is the door hinges may be worn and showing it the window seal.

try taking some measurements against the passenger door.

Cheers

John

    • From there it is trickier. Ecutek seems to be one of those closed ecosystems where everyone password protects their tunes which means I either choose a tuner and can't change from them and can't make any changes myself for any reason, or I have to buy the tuning software (about $4k) and then get someone to tune from scratch (which is not simple with all the multi dimensional tables these days). Once you buy about 300 "flash points" per ECU you can get it tuned and add their "RaceROM" function which hacks extra functionality like launch control onto the ECU, and also makes extra data available for logging over CAN Not sure what I'll do there yet; I'm tempted to use one of the overseas shops that does billions of remote tunes of the platform instead of starting from scratch locally, a lot can be done online these days.
    • Can I log IAT eh? Well, can now So next thing was looking at data logging. Not straight forward because none of the motorsport displays have cracked the nissan/inifinti CAN and ECU based displays don't do g logging, lap timing, predictive laps etc.  So, I bought an Ecutek dongle from Tunehouse (Oz distributor). Even without a tune onboard that allows display and logging of about 50 parameters via Android (and presumably iOS) app. Approx 600 for the bluetooth + Usb version That gives me (pretty ugly but) functional dash display on Android And logging of these parameters I'll play around a bit over the break, but at least now I can make sure I have oil pressure when I get to some track testing.  
    • I don't know what globes/headlight connector they run, but I'd be looking for a female adapter to plug into the existing headlight on one side. Something like this https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/256017245989 Then I'd use a pair of single input, double output relays (one for low, one for high), mount them in a spare space in the fuse box if you want to to look more original (and be easier to maintain). Then 2 new power sources from the main stud in the fuse box via a fuse to each relay. Low from the headlight adapter pin triggers low relay and high from the high headlight adapter pin triggers high and low. Earth the relays and new headlight sockets and off you go. Because it triggers off the original headlight all of the dipping/hi on/high flash all still works
    • I reached 10 posts and wanted to make my build thread too but still can't add pictures to posts so I have no idea how it works 😂
