Hey guys

I just had my front drivers window smashed - prob a break-in attempt. Does anybody know if the window can be sourced locally, or had any experiences that you can share or if the 350's window (had to ask) is the same?

Unfortunately at this stage, it's looking tough. One of the national chains is telling me they need to order from JP .. 2 weeks. :O

I'm in Perth.

Cheers!

ouch that's gotta hurt...unfortunately the 350z window is totally different, and apart from getting luck by finding a smashed coupe or one being striped, im afraid japan is the only option. i feel for you sir, hope it all works out well.

go on import monster. check out the 2nd hand parts there and get one that way. it will probably be cheaper and faster than a company to find and organise one

just get them to fit it when it arrives. and dont let them give you the whole 'ohh its an import so installation will cost more' thats bullshit, its a car no matter where it came from.

Totally agree. My passage side windows was smashed 2 years ago. It cost me $850 to replace one from my local workshop. The good news is it only take them3 working day to get one from Nissan Jap.

Thanks for the support guys ... it's been such a downer today.

Got the windscreen place to order one from Japan ... yikes 3-4 weeks. Been doing the run around between drizzles this morning. And I've only got a carport, not garage. I'm not looking forward to this.

Frank ... 3 days fr Japan? How did they manage that?

By freight?? I guess. I send my car to them on monday. get it back on Friday morning. I saw the package on the floor when I pick up the car. They do come from Nissan with all the sticker on it.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
