Heyy sau

So I've got my a pretty bad situation... My driver's side window won't come back up :(

So through pulling the trim off and going through isolating the switch and motor I have my self a broken switch and broken motor.

Called my local Nissan and they quoted me $570 for the motor and $194 for the switch... But said it's now illegal for them to provided me with part numbers.

I have the motor one as 80730AL501

But with vigorous searching of sau, google for both the m35 and v35 sedan no result for the switch. Could anyone help me out with the part number please?

Thanks you

They come up all the time on yahoo japan if you can afford to wait for shipping (mine did the same and I just suction cupped/duct taped it shut for a few weeks... cops didn't like it but haha). Fyi I ended up buying a passenger side motor V35 motor and just took a little cutting back of the excess plastic to get it to fit. Lost the Auto Up function but for the amount I saved it was worth it (was about 150 for regulator and motor). They do come up on Ebay from time to time as well. Hope that helps.

BTW if the parts department told you it was "illegal" to give you a part number you should report them to their manager.

They may decide not to give you the part#, but it is certainly not illegal.

Thinking of just putting the window up on the weekend and blocking it to stay up, auto up and down is my favourite feature :'( but thank you for the information and I'll keep it in mind :)

Don't worry Duncan I had a good laugh about it, there was two Guys that owned imports but they never answer the phone :(

Agreed, auto is the goods

Another option is you can just get an auto elec to rebuild the motor from yours. I got quoted $80 to get one rebuilt when mine failed, but then i picked up a second hand one for way less and just stuck that in.

I remember someone deep in the sands of time said the motor brushes were very similar to an R33 window motor.

Ive had this happen to me on many occasions.

What i did was slightly tap the outside door and then get in the car while holding the window switch up close the door with a bit of force and it should go back up. Should

It may or may not work for you but give it a try, and if it does work dont put it down again.

Good luck

      Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts.

      Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.

      If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.

      Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.

      Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
