hey man you pm'd me in regards to em, to my knowledge now i went looking in the shed and as it turns out someone (not naming names DAD.) has thrown them away, i'll have another look later on but,

but seriously why on earth would you want them? especially to ahve to go as far as modifying them to fit your car? it's so much effort for something that (no offence) looks dorky

I think you will find that they will require midificatio before they will fit.

You are wanting to so this in order to have chrome stripping? yes?

If that is the case i suggest you take your current door strips to an plating company (the ones that gold/silver plate badges etc. They should be able to sort it out for you and they will fit back onto your car without any dramas.......and should be at a very reasonable cost too :rant:

hmmm, reason...

1) i live near a dirt road so on a hot sunny day i have my window down and need to use my wipers to clear the dust off my window. the deturgent stuff comes straight in.

2) does this attached file look dorky? my opinion... no.

cheers anyway mun

ok well i just had to scrape cum off my legs.

those weatherstrips look nothing like the ceffy ones the ceffy ones look a lot more aggressive and less subtle, you'd be better off going to a japwrecker or even trying ebay?

perhaps 2 door weatherstrips would fit straight up? after all, the 4 door is only 5cm longer than the 2door!

BUT you have the common misconception of weatherstrips... these will not stop water and detergent from trickling into your car! the reason these weatherstrips were made is because a lot (A LOT) of japs smoke cigarettes,

To be able to smoke while driving and not have the pesky side effect of SUFFOCATION occouring due to wound up windows, they put weather strips on so they could have their window cracked open a bit without the cabin getting too blustery!

cos it's cold in japan and simply not feasible to have the window open

hope this clears things up a bit!

cheers fellas

more of that green four door is on HPIv8

have tried all the local jap importers around the place, nothing and tried my nissan dealer, this part can no longer be imported for sum reason.

cheers again.

You wont be able to get them as they are an acessory. I tried with the ceffy ones, no joy.

Id highly doubt you would be able to even find a set, if you did getting them imported Id expect to get them back broken, as they run the whole lenth of the cabin.

Good luck tho.

how about getting in contact with jap wreckers? learn some japanese and DO IT. it can't be that hard and besides they'd just be throwing them away anyways, so you could get them cheap!

being an accessory you would only have to get em posted and that way you don't gotta pay brokerage fees or nothin like that!

give it a goooooOooOOO!

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
