From what I hear, it's a pretty difficult venture at the moment. If you can wait, then by all means, keep scouring but I know there's no way I'd wait even just for the simple fact that it's cold out there (and gets occasionally wet)! :P

Have you found out from your local dealership's spares division how much you'd be looking at for a new one? If you're in Sydney, try my pick of the bunch - Steve Jarvin Nissan.

Why not try Nissan? Have you contacted them yet?

From my experience, Nissan take a maximum of 10 business days to receive anything from Japan and considering that this is the 10th business day from your first post, I would imagine that you could have been dropping your V36 in to Nissan this morning to have the window fitted.

Anyone ?.. Damn this annoying... So hard to get even a window these day... God please gelp

Trust me, if anyone knew of a better source (or if there was a God), you would've been told by now.

Not sure which dealership you spoke to but in Sydney, I know my favourite spares guy at Steve Jarvin gets stuff in for me within two weeks, typically. That said, I've never had to get any glass, so it could take longer being a more fragile and larger item.

Like I said, if you want this sorted out in the least possible time, spend big at a dealership.

Think of it another way. The longer you wait for a cheaper solution, the sooner you could've had one on the way over from Japan. Personally, I'd spend the big bucks because it's a protective component of the vehicle - keeps the water out - and I don't fancy the idea of a mouldy, smelly car.

Since you have the time to wait, why not try looking on Yahoo Auctions via Import Monster?

A very, very quick look in the body part section showed a number of doors that still have the window inside.

You could also try Jesse Streeter. Giving him the part number will help both of you.

For someone asking for help, you don't seem to have provided much info. Which window? Is it a coupe or sedan?

If you don't have the part number, go to http://nissan.epc-data.com and find it.

Too easy mate... give Nissan King in NZ a call, they have the coupe and sedan for wreck (numerous cars) so sure to have what you need, they are pretty cheap also and will ship to australia.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
