I need the part number for for front windscreen mould. Rang nissan but the guy was not sure if it was the correct one.

Quoted $329 :P

Need to check price before I rip out the old one to paint my car.

If too expensive, I have might use an aftermarket one for $20.

Actually while you are at it, can you provide the the rear hatch mould as well. It is in better condition and may be able to be reused.

Waits for CHOOK to respond :P

Thanks

Hi Darrin,i had quote on there as had new GEN NISSAN screen put in $250 for both the black mould`s i have part number some where will dig it out & post up if that`s any help Dude,cheer`s chuckie.i was luckie that they saved mould`s,

to put an after market mould on you will have to take the window out, unless you do a dodgy and cut the back off and have it fly off in 6 months time.

there are two parts to the mould, the retainer which is double sided taped on to the body, and the actual mould which goes into the retainer.

If you are painting the car you will need to take the retainer off, to do that mould comes out window comes out then the retainer. If you take the retainer

off you will need to buy a new one, you can usually reuse the mould if your careful!

or you could just mask up the moulds

That is half true. The trim setup is the same as the R33's. When I painted my R33 I left the front and rear screens in, removed the mould and left the retainer.

Once painted I had the 1/4 windows refitted by a windscreen mob and they fitted a generic T shape strip form a commadore for $20 each. it looked different the factory one, but did the same job.

From memory, to replace the front and rear moulds and retainers was going to cost approx $650 for the R33.

I can't mask up the trims as that looks really doggy plus it is getting a full colour change so colour needs to continue under the trim

I will get the windscreen mob out this week to remove the 1/4 windows and see what they can offer or do.

cant picture how a 33 is set up but there is no point removing the mould and not the retainer as the mould covers the edge of the screen and the retainer covers the body. The aftermarket mould that they used is off a vl (im guessing) if thats the case they are going to have to work miricals to get it to work

down the side pillers.

good luck, what colour you going?

good luck, what colour you going?

Finally got onto my parts man that knows what he is doing

Front screen mould p/n 72752-0V010 $105 ex Melbourne

Front screen retainer p/n 72725-0V000 $84 ex Melbourne

Rear screen mould p/n 90386-0V000 $94 ex Japan

At these prices I will go genuine

Still flipping a coin on colour choice, was think bayside blue but might now go Ford Breeze.

I will get the shell undercoated this week end hopefully.

Thanks chook for the fast response.

    • I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.
    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
    • Slight segway but the most expensive part of the whole thing which I would have thought would only be required for an engine size/type swap, not a VIV test, is emissions testing.  That's when you get into the big bucks.  I can't remember the exact price now but I got quotes for the GT-R based on swapping to RB30 (not that anyone bothers doing it legally anymore...) and it was around $4500 just for that alone.  The guy that does them manipulates the tune on the vehicle to make sure it passes.  The cheaper option is to book into Kangan Batman Tafe (I think that's where it was) and hire their tester.  Allegedly you're not allowed in there with the car though so not in a position to tweak anything to make sure the vehicle passes.  I'm sure in this day and age of ultra tuneable ECU's you could get the tuner to program a special efficiency (clean) tune that emits the lowest amount of particulates possible that would pass the test.  It might only make 50kW's but as long as it passed who cares!
    • I'm sure he has left signs, or, he is looking down, laughing That's my cunning plan for when I leave, lots of half finished projects, with no rhyme or reason of where I was actually up to, just to keep everyone on their toes
