Hi all, my driver side window and left passenger window decided to die on me. And its plain irritating to open the door to get tickets in carparks. Was wondering if you guys might know where i can get it fix and how much would it cost me??

Did both stop working at the same time? weird for both 2 b not working, if you know how to get the door trim off check to see if the window reg's are getting power! If they are either be the switches or the reg's! If they arent probably a fuse???

Its weird that its both, if you check what Paul suggested and still come up empty, open the control unit. Its inside the drivers door. Look at the solder joints. If there are any that look dull, heat them up with a soldering iron so the solder reheats. It could be as simple as dry solder joints. This happened to my R33. Just on the drivers door. After doing this, I had no more problems :(

do you hear a clicking or buzzing sound?

This happened in my ex's car Check your fuses, then check your relays. (it wasn't a skyline but I assume auto electric issues aren't too different in each type of car...or maybe I'm wrogn *shrug*)

The motor could also be seizing? WD40 ftw :(

Invest in a multimeter or ask one of the guys to help and have a look if you're unsure!

definately try the control unit if the windows just decide when they want to work apparently its a problem with all electric windows using that style of system as they age the solder dries out and the conection can become intermitant

well thats what the autosparky who fixed mine in about 30 seconds told me

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
