Hey guys,

I recently purchased a black GTi-R back in august. It had a bit of rust and needed a paint job badly, so i had all the rust taken out and the car repainted in 350z pearl (which looks amazing btw). I am now trying to clean up little issues with the car before i start "moddin". :D

My question is: As my window rubbers are the pits, Does anyone know where i can get new window rubbers for the GTi-R from? I am from Barbados and am willing to order them from anywhere (whether it be Japan, Australia, NZ, or UK).

Your guys help is very much appreciated!:biggthump

You guys don't think Nissan of Japan still manufactures these as well (as I would preferably like new ones)?

sorry dappa, looks like those window seals are not even made by nissan anymore. :(

PM kieron on the forum here, he has sent me a tail light before for a great price, as well as sending a rear quarter glass to a friend of mine in Alberta, Canada.

You can still get virtually every part for the GTiR from a Nissan Dealer in the UK.

Dappa, the other and inner window rubbers you may be able to get from a P10 Primera/G20. If i'm not mistaken, there the same as R. The rear rubber, you will most likely have to get from a R, but it looks like it need adjusting.

Nice paint job by the way.:biggthump What parish do you live in?
