R33 Gtr - No Rear Wiper?

[CSNet]

Hey guys,

I have a 95' GTR V-Spec, and ever since I've had it it's had no rear wiper, which I find more aesthetically pleasing than the ones I see with them. However, I've never actually seen another one that doesn't have one?

I know the N1's came without a rear wiper, just wondering if it was some kind of option/feature? Or probably after market?

Cheers.

It's an option from the factory.

Do you have the swtich to use the rear wiper?

Has the entire rear wiper mechanism been removed?

Could just be a custom job or get you build plate and VIN numbers and post it on SAU and someone can decode it for you.

There is a thread called "VINS, You Wanted Fast"... Or something like that, just do a search and post the numbers in there.

thats pretty odd.....

i dont know why manufactures dont put them on alot of cars these days.....even Merc & BMWS...alot of the fords and holdens dont either

and if yuo notice...the S15 200sx AUS full import has no wiper.....but the JDM Silvia S15 has.....

im assuming that the japanese climate is different as it snows there etc.

but still...i think all cars should have them....

well as the other guy said....get some info of the car....

worse comes to worse it could be a custom job.....or maybe a repair from a crash?

but anyways hopefully its nothing major.....

if you really want one...id say go to a wrecker find a R33 and get one installed DIY with the wiring diagram.

but im not sure if R33 GTS-T have the exact same one.

wasn't it the series II and III that came with the rear wiper and the series I without?

[Lippo]

It was only optional. Mine doesn't have one either. Just think of it as stage one weight reduction

[rtune]

It doesn't look right to me either.

I want to remove mine.

is there a stock way of removing it without buying new glass? some kind of stopper for the hole?

[Lippo]

Yeah you could take the wiper motor out and measure the id of the hole and find a rubber grommet that would fit nice.Try some wreckers or clark rubber possibly.

[Pezhead]

Mine doesn't have one either. It is a '95 GTR V-Spec.

There's no hole in the back glass so the rear window is specific to one's that have it or don't. My car does have the same controls on the wiper control but does nothing if you turn it on (obviously).

[DLOOOK]

My 33 V Spec doesnt have one either. It was a option. 2kg less FTW lol. I dont have the rear wiper control on the stalk.

As for the ADM s15 not having rear wiper heard it was against the ADR requirements

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

^^Yeah the ADM S15 did not come with rear wipers but had those ugly red brake reflectors on the rear bar.

Just off topic but in reguards to the ADR requirements, my R32 GTR is a '90 model and did not need side indicators on the front guards but needed a rear parcel shelf brake light, but from '91 models and up, you needed side indicators but no need for rear parcel shelf brake light.

Yes there is a way to remove it and plug up the hole with a bung, you can buy a Moonface Racing rear wiper hole bung from www.rhdjapan.com, thats what im using on my gtr at the moment, just remove the wiper motor etc and put the moonface bung in its place, looks alot cleaner than having a rear wiper.

[Radioham]

Didn't have one on my V-spec neither, but I'd like one though.

Even thought about upgrading it lol. Go the wipers

[Iron Chef]

Mine hasn't got one either

[GTR-N1]

whatever you do, dont try and yank it off by pulling upward with as much force as possible, or you'll be left with a shitload of broken glass!

push downward on the centre of the wiper, and gently pull the other end up that connects the wiper to the cog on the wiper motor

isn't yours the cheap model, with no radio, air con, etc?

[Iron Chef]

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Don't even have floor carpets either.

[GTR-N1]
