Righto so I've recently purchased new windscreen seal kits for the front and rear of my R32 GTR..

As most of you know buying this stuff from Nissan costs as much as a engine rebuild... (nearly :/)

What I want to know is who here has had them done by a workshop and were you happy with the quality of work that was done?

Ive used windscreens O'Brian before and I was slightly put off by a couple of things they did, but we wont talk about that here.

I don't want to be doing this job twice so any recommendations are appreciated

cheers

Ok Joe ......... It's your lucky day.

I used Manie's Mobile Windscreens 2 weeks ago and about 18 months ago and in both cases he was excellent.

I did the same thing, sourced the moulds and fasteners direct from Nissan and got Manual to fit them.

You should get change out of $400.00 for the lot but remember there is a bit of mucking around at the rear due to the wiper.

He comes to you as he is mobile.

He did/does work for Unique Auto Sports and Hills Motorsports to name a few Skyline oriented workshops.

He knows these cars very well and has been doing this work for 20+ years.

His mobile number is (0408) 255 548.

Cheers,

Bob.

Bob you are a legend!

I've actually had to cut the nut off the rear wiper as it was that rusted that I fear if I used a breaker bar I would break the glass :/

From memory that's cheaper then windscreens obrian

I'll give him a call when I get the parts in :)

Cool....... Have you ordered the parts?

If not I can give you the exact part numbers and pricing.

I bought the fasteners locally because the shipping was either too dear or too big but I got all the moulds from Amayama.

That’s amayama.com - good price and service.

I use jp-carparts.com to find the parts - Exploded views etc and then copy/paste into amayama.

Let me know if you need any help with the exact parts.

If you do you will need to tell me the exact date of your car build as they had some minor changes throughout the series.

Cheers,

Bob.

Thanks once again Bob, I've ordered the parts already through rhd Japan, I wanted to buy the outer weather sheild for both doors but they were ridiculously expensive so I've passed for the time being.

I will look at the site u have recommended.

Do you know if he does window tinting or glass chip repairs?

No........ Windscreens only.

I can't help with chip repairs but Tint on the Move is my tint guy.

Tints and removes tint which is what use him for.

Mobile too. Give him a call on (0430) 323 436

Tell him Bob with the Skylines in Castle Hill recommended you. Good guy with good work at a very fair price.

  • 3 weeks later...

Gave him a quick call yesterday. Sounded like a really nice guy.

He quoted me around 350 for front and rear which is great as windscreens obrian wanted 220 for just the rear from memory.

And it's a mobile service! Will be using his services for

Sure!
