Hey guys, so i've got a R34 GTT 2 door. and just recently the passanger side window stopped going verically up, instead it goes up a bit and then starts to get wonky. I looked into it and turns out one of the lower guides that move horizontally while the window goes up and down has come out of its guide and is basically doing nothing.

It keeps coming out because this small white plastic thing it goes into has somehow broken, it used to be a full circle to hold the end of the mechanism into.

Really confusing to explain, so i took a few photos. The first photo shows how its sitting now (outside of the guide).

Second photo shows how its meant to be, but its meant to also be within that white thing, or it'll keep coming out of the guide.

Anyone know where i can possibly get that small white thing? or its name? or possibly a way to get around this problems?

take this picture to your nissan spare parts dealer/shop and they should be able to pull up the schematics and find the part for you. if not you might have to replace the entire thing from a wreck. or try find that part off another wrecked 34!

nissan said they won't sell that little plastic thing without the entire scissor section..

I have the same problem....except my bushing was shattered, found it in pieces on the bottom of the door panel :/

Just FASTed the assembly and it doesn't look like the bush (mouse pointer) is sold separately:

On the upside the entire part (80700/01) is only $60 from Amayama, cheaper if you find a second hand one..

If you find a replacement bush please share :D

Hi guys,

I've just come across this myself, so ordered a new regulator assembly from Japan that arrived this week

Was it difficult to replace? I'm only just getting into DIYs, and I like to have an idea of what i'm doing before i get started, and have not been able to find a tutorial or photos. Does it require 2 people?

Cheers!

Mick

I haven't fixed this issue yet. Almost went down the path of buying a new regulator myself, then saw this:

Bought and giving it a try asap. Will update on progress. No Idea if the dimensions even match the R34 but looks close and $6 worth the try lol.

Every mechanic I went to see said "nop can't do it" straight away without even looking at the car. It seems these days if they can't replace it, they don't want to bother trying to fix it.

I myself just bought a whole new regulator assembly and installed it with the help of my house-mate. Got it on fairly easily, but couldnt bloody get the glass to come up flush with the seals. no matter how much adjusting, we couldnt get it. assuming that something got bent by a previous owner or something... anyway, it sort of 'fixed itself' after a few weeks, comes up fairly straight now! go figure...

Ok I can confirm that I've totally fixed my problem - the green volvo regulator bush CAN be used!

This was a really irritating issue for me so I thought I'd write a little guide...

Acquire this item:

Once you have it, it takes 15 mins of work to get it all working.

Step 1:

The bush is way too big. Looking at it front on in the pic...saw off the grey areas so its short enough to fit inside the rail..

Step 2:

Looking at it side on now. Its too thick as well. I used a dremel to drill out channels along the top and bottom (shown in red) so it would slide along the

front of the rail where it closes in.. Also cut off the back part a little (shown in yellow) so its not as thick.

EDIT: Don't cut any of the yellow - just realised I never did and its unnecessary.

Step 3:

Have to pry the top and bottom out a LITTLE bit...only do it towards the edge since the bush doesnt travel that far out. Also need to pry the bit of metal blocking entry on the left side.

Step 4:

Apply some grease to the area esp the red channels, and it should slide in from the left. Then push the arm into the bush and insert the retaining clip!

      Chris' R34 GTT Series 2

      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

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.

      2630s work perfectly well. There is something to be said for just using the 30 head, as it saves all the pain of the conversion, still makes tons of power, still sounds cool, etc etc. 2630 will obviously make more power again, but the differences are not stupidly big. It really depends on whether you're racing for sheep stations or not. If it's dead serious, then it's a 26 head. If it's just for fun, it could go either way. But the 26 head and the effort to get it set up, etc etc, is part of the fun.
