Nissan Skyline R32 for sale in the USA!

RB Motoring

This Nissan Skyline R32 is for sale in the USA today. Already titled, and waiting for the new owner to pick it up!

Our friend Sean aka Moostang09 shot a video for this R32 Skyline GTS-T we have for sale. Check out the video! This was shot in an afternoon in the downtown area of Dallas. Be on the lookout for more, we will be shooting a video of every car we bring in for the foreseeable future. 

This R32 Skyline is a GTS-T Type M. The Type M came with a nice set of options, most notably the more aggressive body panels like the sideskirts and rear spats. This one also came with the incredibly rare Nissan CoolBox in the glovebox, which routes some A/C into your glovebox and turns it into a mini cooler. The wheels are Advan 3 spoke wheels, and there are some other assorted mods like an intake, strut bars front and rear, a nice aftermarket exhaust, and an HKS blowoff valve. 

Like every other car in our inventory, this Nissan Skyline R32 is for sale in the USA today and available for a test drive. We operate just like any used car dealership: you can inspect, test drive, and see the cars for yourself. Even better, since all our cars are already titled in the USA you don't have to deal with a mess of paperwork like other dealerships have you do in order to get your car plates in your home state. You take the title to the DMV and register your car just like you would if you bought a 2015 Honda Civic. Our goal is to make the sales process as easy for our buyers as possible. 

To see more details about this car, visit the sales page here. If this car is sold by the time you see this page, contact us and we can find something like it, or visit our Inventory page to see what else we have in stock. 

 

Nissan Skyline R32 - Window won't roll up or down FIX - DIY/How-To Guide.

RB Motoring

Window won't roll up or down in your Nissan Skyline? Here's how to fix it. 



The R32 has some common faults, one of which being the windows not rolling up or down after some period of time. The typical cause of the problem is the black relay box located inside the window, although there are a few places to test first. 

- Confirm your fuse is in good shape. There is a fuse under the hood that helps power the window movement - check your fusebox to see if it's blown. If you're lazy and don't want to pop your hood, you can confirm it's still working if the opposite window still works. For example, if your driver window won't roll down, but your passenger window will, your fuse is fine.

- Make sure your window motor still works. I am yet to see a window motor that has broken, but to test it you can hotwire it using a drill battery. Use bullet style connectors on two lengths of wire, and put them in the harness. Connect the open ends to the leads of the drill battery. If your motor doesn't move it is blown.

- Test your window switch. A schematic for testing can be located by clicking here


Assuming your fuse is fine, everything else to test is located in behind your door panel. 

Step 1: Remove your door panel. There are a handful of Phillips head screws located around the outside edge, and one screw located inside the slot under a plastic cap - most of these locations are marked in red in the picture below. You will also need to remove the trim that surrounds the door handle, and the unplug the two plugs from window switch. There are also a few plastic anchors that hold in the door panel - pull the door panel away from the door to loosen them and then upwards to free the rubber from around the window.

Step 2: With the door panel off, we'll be removing the black box on the inside of the door after unplugging it from the harness. It is held into the door with two gold Phillips head screws. Hold the box while looking at the face that has the attachment for the plug, and pry away the plastic covering using a flat head screwdriver. A green electronic board will slide out of the black box.

Step 3: With the electronics board out of the box, flip it over and inspect the solder joints on the underside of the board. Typically you will find a few of them that look cracked or damaged. The picture below shows the board with the cracked joint circled in red. Notice the difference between the circled solder joint and the ones not circled?

Step 4: Repair the broken joint using your soldering iron and solder. I won't go into detail on how to solder, but it is incredibly easy and solder and an iron can be purchased for less than $20. I bought this kit from Amazon - it came with everything I needed and I have had no problems with it over a year of use. The repaired joint is being pointed at in the picture below.

Step 5:  The clip on the inside of the box may have been damaged during prying it apart, so I typically zip tie it together to make sure it doesn't come apart when re-installed. Take two large zip ties and zip them together like in the picture below, and then bolt the black box back into the door. After it's bolted in, pass the zip tie through the harness and then zip tie it around the box.

Step 6: Re-install the door panel by reversing the steps of removal. Enjoy your window that will work for another 25 years!

Here Are 5 Important Information To Consider While Renting A Vehicle

RB Motoring

Introduction

Are you planning for a vacation and contemplating about car services? Are you torn between taxi rides or car rental services? It can be tricky to either first-time traveler or veteran travelers. If you wish to escape the unpredictable schedule of taxi rides or public means of transport, here's what you ought to know about car rental services

1.    Use a credit card

While going for car rentals, consider bringing along a credit card. Some may deny the use of debit cards or charge an authorization amount. Car hire companies look at the credit score of a client.

If you want to use a debit card, be sure to make a phone call in advance, or you can log online and go through the policies. You certainly don't want to wind up holding on funding's which you were not anticipating

2.    Limit additional drivers

Are you planning to be the only driver or you’ll include another party to take your part on the wheel? If you shall have someone help you, it’s essential that you add the name on the rental contract. Be keen to check on age limits as younger drivers tend to cost more as they are a liability. Be extra careful who gets behind the wheel once you pick the vehicle, and you will have less worry of having to incur additional charges. Various car rental services have different policies, including lax car rental. Be sure to check these policies before making a final decision 

3.    Have car insurance

It's vital that you acquire insurance to cover you for future uncertainties. You certainly don't want your vacation ruined as a result of being summoned by the courts. Having a personal guarantee is well and good. However, you must include accident insurance. Make this plan in advance and not during the last minute at the counter

4.    Look beyond the airport

You certainly don't want to be a last-minute person and hire a car at the terminals. There are lots of people with the same idea of renting a car at the airport. Thus it will mean longer queues and chances are things might go wrong. It’s crucial that you plan. Rates at the airport tend to be higher so also check the other alternatives if you intend to save money during your visit 

5.    Fill the tank before you return the vehicle

Its common courtesy that you fill the tank after having a blast during your vacation. If you bring along an empty shell, don't be surprised if you are asked to pay double the price of fuel charges per gallon. Spend a few minutes at a gas station to fill up the tank before returning the vehicle.

Conclusion

Making informed choices goes a long way in ensuring you enjoy your vacation. Understand the regulation of rental services to be on the safe side. Various car hire companies, including lax car rental, are ready to offer services to interest clients. Equip yourself with the necessary as well as valuable information to get the best of the car rental services.
