[atom]

Maybe it's old news, searched but didn't find anything, but just a heads up for since some people don't seem to know where to get em. Courtesy now carries em for ~$90.

[Shawn_of_the_Dead]

hmm...I wonder if they have em for S13. I'm gonna check!

[projectRDM]

Good way to ruin it for the rest of us. Now all the ghey kids will have them.

[nrg]

um.. please delete this thread. thanks for opening up the flood gates. :P

The way I see it, the more people that have em the less of a target each car is to all the JDM whores/thieves. I know from personal experience, someone broke into my S14 earlier this year to steal my stock head unit and digital climate control. :ghey:

EDIT: LOL so many haters that wanna keep it to themselves. I guess if y'all really want me to delete this thread I will cuz I don't really care either way. :bigok:

[Shawn_of_the_Dead]

wow so many negative people...who really cares if someone knows where to get them at? It's not like everyone is gonna say.."OMG...those are super cool"....most people I know can't stand the looks of em. I however need a way to vent smoke when it's raining...so this works nice...lol

here ya go. http://www.store.yahoo.com/phase2motorsports/s13nisiwitu.html

[Dousan_PG]

thanks. ordered haha

[trsilvias13]

thanks i will order that once i get home. i hope they have it in stock

[eyustfu]

i thought everyone knew about it from courtesy already, i ordered my set about 5months ago

[p11driver]

from the picrture those dont look like the jdm window visors. they look very thin. maybe its just the pic

[KOUKI KA-T]

Couretesy has actually been carrying them for months, I just kept my mouth shut. I predict a price hike in the near future...

[trsilvias13]

ordered .

[m0rex]

Does anyone have them? They look kinda weird.

[Dousan_PG]

brian does
look badass
i know a few s14s/s13s with them. so sexy.
even on stock body looks great.

p11 s14 ones are thin. ive seen them i n person many many times

[p11driver]

maybe its just that pic, but they dont look like mine.(from phase 2) http://store.yahoo.com/phase2motorsports/nis14siwitun.html

[NZO]

Been wondering how long it would take for this thread to show up haha

[Ritz S14]

I almost bought 10 of them..and slang em on zilvia... but for some people who ruin it for the rest of us. Luckilly I didn't do it.

[gonzoes14k]

damm you all lol.... I knew just dont have the loot. When i got loot watch them be out of stock.

[FaLKoN240]

Can someone link me to the S13 ones? I can't find them. (Ashamed of self.)

[mmdb]

Looks pretty useful. I'm sure it would help prevent all the water that drips down during window washes and rain...

[KOUKI_VERS13]

so I dont have to make a new thread for my question, i'll ask in here..

what kind of strength double sided tape, if any, are you guys using along with the clips? i'm thinking of using my industrial strength tape, but im afraid if i want to take it off one day it might tear the paint off my soon to be newly painted a pillars.. i'm afraid of thieves if i use weaker tape, but the industrial strength holds that bad boy real good, i use the same thing for my roof wing. so anyway, tell me how you guys got yours on..
thanks

[KOUKI KA-T]

^^ 3M tape

[CleanS14]

thanks

If you use the stuff it comes with the visors will crack if someone tries to steal them. Trust me I know... someone tried to steal mine and fucked them up. Nissan ships them with the same 3M 5lb double sided tape that can be found at Home Depot/OSH etc... just clean the stripping and it will stay on good... shouldn't mess up your paint unless you're an @$$ and don't install them right.

[MrSkinny]

those are hawt. i paid much more than that 2 yrs ago when they were rare and pimp.

[TurDz]

maybe its just that pic, but they dont look like mine.(from phase 2) http://store.yahoo.com/phase2motorsports/nis14siwitun.html

so can anyone confirm if p11driver's are the same as the ones Courtesy sells?

(i.e. Phase2 wind visors = Courtesy visors?)

[KOUKI KA-T]

so can anyone confirm if p11driver's are the same as the ones Courtesy sells?

(i.e. Phase2 wind visors = Courtesy visors?)

Same. It's an OEM part. Unless Phase2 sells knockoffs.
Courtesy ones are exact same as the ones I have, both OEM.

[Dousan_PG]

i ordered yesteerday
they shipped today
thank you courtesy. im so happy
new wheels, new paint,new visors
WOWZAS
:)
and track time too..noice
what a week!
free turkey too

[kuramaya]

Yeah I reccomend them especially if you smoke and it rains...I couldnt live without mine...on a side not, someone said up there that they are stealing climate control units..what exactly are all the pices they need? I can snatch those at junkyards usually...

[p11driver]

phase isnt knockoff, its oem. i was confused about the pic courtesy has. awsome to see i got ripped in the ass by phase 2 god damnit.

[MadScientist]

The unit itself and about 6" of the JDM Wire harness.... re connect the USDM wire in color order and the big Blue and Black ones... thats really it.... you can also do it to where you can splice the harness and swap units at will.

Oh Yeah... I've had the JDM Visors for awhile and the Double sided tape is super stong... If you place it wrong your S.O.L. :boink:

Peace

hmm mine (real oem for sure) do not use double sided tape, there are clips...interesting..

I just may have to make some money off the climate controls :cool:

[eyustfu]

mine is real and i got it through courtesy brand new. It uses clips and double sided tape.

did you buy yours used? perhaps they removed the double sided tape

[KOUKI KA-T]

hmm mine (real oem for sure) do not use double sided tape, there are clips...interesting..


You must have got them used then.
I hope your not driving around with just those cheesy clips, or those things are gonna fly off. The clips break pretty easily, and don't hold them that well anyway.

nah they came on my car when I bought it, they dont fly off, been well over 200 KPH and not a problem yet....My Skyline had the same style with clips and drove that for 3 years with no problems as well....

There's more to it than that if you want it fully functional.

[crazyikimasho]

for you SoCal guys most of those parts can be ordered locally at Performance Nissan as well

[projectRDM]

They can actually be ordered at any dealer if they're willing, just depends on who it is. All you need is the part number.

[WILDACEX187]

There's more to it than that if you want it fully functional.

like what? :bow:

[Brian]

all the sensors. 3 of them I think.

[projectRDM]

all the sensors. 3 of them I think.

And the resistor and air mix door motor. I did a writeup on FA years ago, but we're jacking the thread now.

[KOUKI_VERS13]

anybody want to sell me two visor clips for a 180sx? mine came missing one on each side, where the a pillar starts (near the hood), so i'll need those..plus i paid the jdm tyte price. :faint:

anybody know what to use to take off old taping off my visors? i want to put fresh taping since the old one has ish all over it and wont stick good. ive tried everything i can think of, goo gone, razor, razor+goo gone, heat gun+razor. and after all that i probably only took off about 15% of it..

[trsilvias13]

goof off, that thing is very strong, it is flamable , not sure if safe on plastic

[KOUKI KA-T]

anybody know what to use to take off old taping off my visors?

I used my 3M pinstripe removal wheel.
Everyone should have one, they are great.

[projectRDM]

^ What he said. Make sure to apply and install the tape in warm weather too, anything below 70 degrees and they'll likely come off at speed. You should also clean both surfaces well with alochol to get any wax or residue off.

I lost one of my first visors that way, applying tape when it was somewhat cold out, luckily the were used and chewed up anyway. New in the box set was only $34 through YahooJP so I feel better about it now.

[Brian]

I got mine brand new in box when I bought my car.
Unfortunatly, my passenger side one is cracked in half now because of something stupid.
anybody got a pass. side one that they want to get me.

[KOUKI_VERS13]

^ New in the box set was only $34 through YahooJP so I feel better about it now.

who'd you go through to buy through yahoojp? the only place ive found is an australian company to go through, but i dont want to do that since the shipping will kill me even more since it has to go to aus. then to me..it would be good if i could find someone in the US..

[Drunk Bastard]

for as cool as they are, i really wouldnt get them for an s14 drift car. MAINLY because if you dont have a full cage, there is no where for the passenger to hold onto EXCEPT the a-pillar outside of the car. coincidentally, this is exactly where the "wind visors" aka "rain gaurds" go. anyways, thats just me.


oh, and yes, i know its dumb to hold onto the outside of the car, especially while drifting....just incase of a roll over, but I'M holding onto the wheel...so it's all on the passenger. haha :duh:

[nrg]

so cal people. performance and superior nissan carry JDM parts btw. i'm sure everyone knew this already hah. Courtesy seems to have better pricing tho.
jdm is gay muahahaha...

spend some money and get a passenger bucket seat.
done.
passenger grabs my rainguard and breakt hem, i breaka der face! capiche?

i cant spell. haha..

[projectRDM]

Why would you guys have passengers in the car anyway? More weight, plus you know they're going to scuff the kick panels with their shoes, and scratch the console trying to buckle the seatbelt. Other people don't seem to care about someone else's car when they're in it.

[FaLKoN240]

So, has anyone found a link for CHEAP S13 ones. I don't want to pay $200+ for these things.

[Drunk Bastard]

i cant spell. haha..

yea, i'd love to get a passenger bucket seat BUT it makes it harder to cram 4 rims/tires in the "back seat" since the bucket wont move far enough forward to jam 'em all in. same goes for if you have a roll cage, it's still pretty hard to cram tires in the back. I can't always have my friends(the people i give the rides to) bring my tires in a truck for me. ah damn, where has drifting gone? I need to buy a truck and trailer now.

[mav1178]

phase isnt knockoff, its oem. i was confused about the pic courtesy has. awsome to see i got ripped in the ass by phase 2 god damnit.


Did you? You do realize that if the pricing doesn't change from a distributer, the retail price doesn't change, right?

I know for a fact that the price that Phase 2 gets on these visors has not changed for the past 2 years. So you didn't get ripped in the ass, Courtesy just happened to get a better price on these or a price change was made at the distributer level and was not reflected in the wholesale/retail pricing.

You could have easily shopped around; Phase 2 does price matching.

-alex

[p11driver]

Actually i got ripped off because i paid over $100 more than what coutesy is selling for. I never said it wasnt my fault. i did not know courtesy had it for so cheap, if i knew theres no way i would have got it from phase 2.

[richardxfeng]

You have to understand that Phase 2 is not a Nissan dealer.They don't have the good discounts as all those online Nissan dealer.They get parts through Nissan Motorsports from Japan for 40%-50% off the retail.So you do the math.

[crazyikimasho]

so cal people. performance and superior nissan carry JDM parts btw. i'm sure everyone knew this already hah. Courtesy seems to have better pricing tho.
jdm is gay muahahaha...

...actually Performance does price matching as well so any price Courtesy gives you they will match, so no they do not have better pricing.

[projectRDM]

That's kind of beating your chest about it, but I guess since you guys pay to advertise here you can do that from time to time.

As far as Phase2's prices, if there isn't a reliable source for parts most places have to buy direct just like anyone else would and mark it up to make a profit. It's only been recently that a lot of the overseas market parts have become available, so at the time when they were the only game in town $225 wasn't too bad of a price. It's not like they get a bigger cut than anyone else would get, they were just doing the legwork and getting the parts here. If you buy something for $100 and pay $50 to get it here, would you sell it for anything less than $200?
Look at Ecode lamps, before the demand came in we were looking at paying direct UK pricing plus shipping/import tax pushing them over $700 a pair. Now that a dealer network is involved the price dropped heavily. Same with anything else.

[publicenemy137]

nice find. I'll get a set once I start working again

BINGO. Nice said, thank you.

We had lower some of our common SR OEM parts pricings today that are now widely available in the states as oppose to what it was back then 3 years ago. However, we still can't beat any of the Nissan dealer's pricings (i.e courtesy, performance or superior) simply being we are not Nissan dealer, even though we still price match them just to honor our customer's order from time to time.

Given by the fact some of the Nissan dealers carry some SR parts now, we still consider ourselves tailoring the most OEM SR replacement parts than any dealers so far, we are doing so just to provide the service and option for people to buy them here in the states at the time when they needed. I am actually glad more Nissan dealers are carrying these parts so in the near future we can just focus on aftermarket new products rather than getting the confusion from customers thinking we are ripping them off when the person probably bought that visor at the time when no other dealers in the USA had it.

[trsilvias13]

hey guys i got these today..

FYI these are hella (sorry nor cal person here) jdm.
all instruction comes in japanese, but you it not that hard to figure out since there are pictures.
AND these are held on by TAPE AND CLIPS.

[TheTimanator]

i'm probably gonna get flamed for this but...
why are these so cool? my parents had wind visors on their 1990 Ford Escort. One of my co-workers has them on his GMC pickup.

although I'd probably pick them up if I didn't have a/c or if I was a smoker...

must be the JDM rarness of it I suspose :rolleyes:

[NI_YON_Zenki]

They're this shit cause you can let the windows down all day long & no one is the wisor because of this visor. .. .those hot ass days you wanna go out in the AC unequipped silvia of yours, you'll apprecaite them.

The rain, you can have the window cracked, they deflect heavy winds, they keep yah' lady happy cause the wind will be diverted to the rear of the cockpit more than the highlights of her hair. .. .so

THERE IT IS. .. .

I needs mines. .. .24

[Dousan_PG]

yeah they are cool
put mine on today
weeeee

[trsilvias13]

cool because i can now smoke in the rain. also it help block wide sunshine on a bright day, roll down window and have less wind noise, get fresh air on a rainy day without turning on ac/heater, keep window rolled down a lil on a hot day yet prevent people from sticking their finger/hand in an attemp to pull window. dude there a lot of reason for these, that is why I bought it.

[NI_YON_Zenki]

There It is Peoples. .. .
True Word spoken right there
. .. .Imma design some carbon fibre ones
Dry carbon of course, lol. .. .s14 chassis' 1st

[SoSideways]

Too bad the S13 ones are still like $413957340957345090958 after all is said and done.

Guess I'll have to rock the AC and the super 1337 "left hand over eye brow" trick like I'm trying to say "pssssssh, so bored, why is this drive so bored? just wanna get home..." but really, I'm just trying to keep the sun from blinding my eyes lol

[TurDz]

anyone have the actual part number from the packaging? or is it the same one listed on the Courtesy website?

[FinalDrive]

Just got and installed mine. They took 10 mins to put on.

[Gnnr]

Yeah, wind deflectors that every soccer mom in america puts on her SUV/VAN for no apparent reason is JDM Tizyte!

[publicenemy137]

well I caved in today and bought a set. Nice find atom

[enen11]

back when i was in china for a month a while back, almost all their cars had them. damn useful when it rained no matter how hard of a down pour nothing wet the interior or door panels. i saw a few 180sx's with carbon fiber and 180sx printed on them. abosulte sex imo

[enen11]

oh and another thing. how are they mounted into the door panel. the only reason why i didn't get them after i came back from china was that i thought some punk kids could easily break the window and rip it off my car.

[dct223]

just put mine on today, took like 5-10 min to install, pretty much self explanitory when u open up the box, even came with some JDM 3M alcohol pad to clean the surface!

What city in China did you see the 180SX?

[enen11]

hong kong/kowloon side. basically rhd in that city. saw other cars like skylines/silvias/cefiro/vitz etc etc. the rest of china is lhd drive and crap cars like usa. since they are right by japan they have a lot of good parts at some tuner shops. but price exceeds usa so i couldn't really bring anything back

[DoriftoSlut]

yeah HK kowloon has lots of modded cars. evos, fds, skylines (all trims) and stuff
mainland china, i havent seen many nice cars at all.
yeah prices suck over there. cheaper here.

-dousan_pg

[enen11]

basically anyone in HK who has a car is probably super rich. there is absolutely no need for a car in china.....metro takes you anywhere. hardly any car there was left stock. i was actually quite impressed of how decently modded their cars were.

oh yea the vitz in HK is actually an echo. too bad our echo is nothing like that

[TurDz]

Could anyone post a few of these pics on an S14?

It's tough to find a picture of something so particular on a car. And I don't want to look through the pics thread... ;)
