Yep, I've got them. Bought them from some speciality wiper web site in the UK. Worth every cent. Think I got both fronts for about $40 delivered from the UK, when similar blades were $50-60 EACH in Australia.

Pretty sure this was the place: http://www.wiperblades.co.uk/

No part number, I measured the stock blades and bought matching sized ones. I think one was a Mini and one was a Citroen something...

I spent ages trying to work it out. Realised rather than looking for other Nissan's they matched up to, it was easier to use the tape measure. End result is perfect, just wished I'd done the rear at the same time.

I didn't think about the rear.. hmm

ok Josh's comment got me interested, so I dug through my email and found the invoice.

Bosch AR18U - 9.24 pounds

Bosch AR21U - 10.15 pounds

8.10 pounds delivery, 27.49 total, so about $40 at today's conversion rate.

The 8.10 works out to $11.82 AUD delivery. To me, thats about what I'd pay locally for delivery, so no big deal.

I needed wipers for my daily, thought I'd try out these aero type blades. Being $11 delivered I wasn't expecting much, however these are the best wipers I have ever used.

So ordered a set for the 33 :)

Gees you make it all sound so complex- just go to Super cheap - (off memory one is 550mm and the other is 600mm) and switch them over, they just pop on off. Takes 3 mintues each side. The twin blade ones wipe away the same amount of water as the top end ones dont they...

Super cheap wanted $50 each, online theyre $40 delivered for a pair...

I might try those. Good tip, thanks.

The links you had for those blades are for another model of car though right? Not a Stagea?

    • Welcome. Dont let anyone dissuade you from your dreams. If you want a gtr, keep sabing and you will eventually get one. I feel like if I had have bought stocks, those companies would have gone bust and I would have lost my money.  There's a gamble in everything we buy. I've had good times and bad. But... I've also met my absolute best friend through this network and can't imagine life without them(more like a brother). Keep in mind, some specific mods will change as technology gets better. If you feel like general chat, there's always the wasteland.....
    • Those are some very cutesy barriers! Is that common?
    • Saw this abandoned Honda Fit in a carpark that was getting repaved... they just 'cut around it' and continued with the job! There's a number of reasons why the car could have been abandoned, but as for the construction company, legally they don't have permission to move the car from the owner (who has moved on and can't be contacted) so all they can do it just leave it there with enough space around it so it won't get damaged. 
    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
