Questions On Repairing Some Aesthetic Aspects Of My Car


Recommended Posts

hi all, i know this isn't directly the place to post this, but being a problem im looking to have repaired, somewhere in say, melbourne wouldn't be my best choice.

I recently purchased an R33 knowing it had some work required to be done to it, but however, i couldn't do it myself so im wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a place that could help me out.

My problems are the following

Power windows wont operate (passenger side works sometimes) i believe that problem to be in the relay itself, but the drivers side i believe to be burnt out (the auto on button locks down, so i believe the previous owner just gave up on that) wouldn't be such a problem if they weren't down

second problem is that the central locking doesn't work on the drivers side, so i hit the central locking and it opens passenger side, but not drivers side. (this is right from the panel on the door itself, or by manually locking/unlocking) could be a problem with the actuators in the drivers panel.

This is normal...the switch only does the passenger side door.

yeah agree with above :)

normally when you get central locking with your alarm you need buy a seperate relay (about $120ish) to put in to get the drivers side to open perhaps the previous owner skipped that.

The window relays are a pretty common problem, but actually not too hard to fix (providing you have soldering gear). There is a thread on fixing them in the DIY forum

ok so, the window is a tad more damaged than i initially thought (everything inside the door regarding the window basically needs replacing)

can anyone recommend a decent place to get this done?

other things aren't that big an issue, just need my windows fixed ><

    • See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars
    • bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.
    • Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like  
    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
