hey guys...well my drivers side pwr window has finally decided to cack it. it started makin this terrible gurgling noise when i went to put it down and just stopped. after a long pokin session yesterday i finally got the window back up by pressin the switch and manually pushin the window up from the cavity of the door to help the motor along. im assuming the motor is on its last legs. just wanted to know where exactly is the motor found in side the door and is it easy to change?? attached is a pic of where i think the motor is. any hints tips would be apreciated

cheers

Pretty close. move the circle about 10cm right and 10cm down and that's where the motor and drive gear are.

To get it all out, you have to unbolt at about 4 points. I can't add to your image at the moment, but you have to unbolt the bar from the bottom of the glass, the two bolts that are in the slots above the large hole. You don't have to move that long vertical bar to the right that the window runs down.

Basically, the whole mechanism is a scissoring setup... disconnect all the bolts, undo it from the glass, fold it down, then you can pull it out through that large cavity. I'll tell you now, be VERY careful when removin the motor/gear from the 'frame' thing once you've got it all out of the door. There's a high pressure spring on there. When I took mine off, it whipped around and sliced straight through my thumbnail.

You'll have to have it up to unbolt the lower mechanism, then the glass will slide down of it's on weight... might want to ask someone to hold it for you until you're ready... then let it slide down, wiggle off the bar that attaches to the glass, collapse the whole thing and slide it out the hole.

My thumb is not famous, it just has many friends.

And yeah, it's roughly the same to put back in as taking out. Probably easier, because you know where it all goes.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
