91 R32 Gtr // Doors And Rear Window Rubbers Any Helpers ?


Recommended Posts

If your looking for new RHDjapan sell these. Use pinpoint search on their site.

It is very Difficult to get good second hand external weather strip surrounds for the doors. You could remove (piss easy, screws on inside under weather strip) and repair by taking back to metal and repaint with Plastidip or similar paint.

For the rear window a car glass replacement company could remove/replace with an aftermarket bead. Do recommend.

Make certain you have no rust happening and if you do take action !

I do happen to have spare new beads for the rear window if you want to stay OEM.

Not easy to install. It's not a DIY job and will need to be held in place by the sillastic the pro's use.

Edit. Just noticed your door glass marks. Maybe just from washing and water marks.

But to clean. Remove the outer weather strip sills on both doors and clean the little buffer pads to stop your glass from scratching up. (those 2 lines on the door glass)

These collect dust and little stones etc... Single screw inside the door, lift gently. When out wash and ruff them up a little with a toothbrush and then put back on.

The glass can be polished with metal cream, polish, toothpaste or other non abbrassives. It will reduce any visible scratches.

Hey guys,

I am trying to find the same parts at the moment. Have been searching all over RHDJapan's site and have come up empty handed.

If either of you happen to find them on their website, could you link them here so I can grab them too? In the mean time, I'll keep searching and will link to them if I find them.

Cheers.

I would never go out on loose gravel roads to do such a thing...

...unless the rubber mouldings were included on the PDS juxtaposed to windscreen replacement ;)

digging up an old thread. In regards to the first photo where the rubber has fallen away and you can see the metal .. is that part the weather strip retainer? I need to order new ones but I'm finding it hard to know which part it is exactly.. ( I have no yet received my car to take the part off and get a better look at it for reference)

is this the part

    • All of those are near new/brand new/done under 10,000km! This means something! It also doesn't necessarily mean anything.... The idea is of course to fit wider tyres and rims, and to go with engine head updates, I'm sure it will be faster the subsequent time out. But TBH the difference will largely be in driver mod between one day and the next I'm sure. To say I am unseasoned after many years away from even driving remotely fast is an understatement. Giving it half throttle and "Whoa, that's a bit excessive.." and realizing I'm doing 80kmh in a 100 zone is evidence enough lol. I have noticed that there is heat haze/steam/air/something absolutely steaming out of the car after parking it. I didn't drive it in the 40C day for testing yesterday, but on Christmas day it was ~32 and you could literally see the air coming out from the bay after parking the car. Whether that's enough though..   
    • I'll take clutch for 50 Eddie.
    • Standard GTRs are boring and there plenty of them, do what ever you want to it and just remember nothing about them is cheap anymore and if you’re picky about how you want things done it gets even worse.    if it’s an n1 or something very limited then maybe care more about it’s heritage 
    • Alright guys, I've got good odds the motor survives due to a majority of spare parts. Who's taking bets on clutch, who's on transmission, and who's go diff? Happy to also take bets on if it still overheats in traffic or not 😛     Car looks amazing by the way. I've never been a fan of R34 rears, so really, I don't think any body kit etc solves that for myself, but the front end looks amazing!
    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car
