Silvia and 180SX Windscreen From Japan: Used vs New Glass (2026)

A used genuine Nissan windscreen for an S13, S14, S15 or 180SX is rare in Japan: only 4 sold on Yahoo! Auctions Japan in closed listings ending 29 April to 18 October 2026, for ¥5,000 to ¥34,100. New glass is easy to find (75 sales at ¥21,000 to ¥38,500), but the listings we opened were imported aftermarket glass, and almost none of it, used or new, is offered for delivery to a private home, let alone overseas. These are listing and closing prices read on 19 October 2026; dollar figures use ¥160 to $1.

If you cracked a screen at a drift day, or you are restoring a car and want factory glass with the right tint band, this is what the market looks like and where the buy usually falls apart.

Can you still get a new Nissan OEM windscreen?

Not that we can confirm. We checked the official pages on 19 October 2026 and Nissan does not state whether new genuine glass for these cars is still supplied. Nissan’s reproduction programme, NISMO Heritage Parts, covers the R32, R33 and R34 Skyline GT-R only. So treat new genuine S-chassis glass as not officially stated, and see the discontinued OEM parts guide for how that plays out across the rest of the car.

What fills the gap is new aftermarket glass. The titles read 日産 新品 (Nissan, new) and quote the Nissan part number, for example 72712-85F00 for the S15 or 72712-70F15 for the S14. Read the description: the store listings we opened say 輸入社外新品 (imported aftermarket, new), made by FUYAO in China and road-legal in Japan, with the part number given for reference. One store also notes the moulding needs replacing at the same time (要モール交換). That is fine glass for a drift car. It is just not Nissan glass.

What do windscreens and rear glass sell for on Yahoo! Auctions?

These are closed (sold) listings read on 19 October 2026. We dropped tint film, mouldings, wipers, washer tanks, quarter windows and door glass.

The rear glass is the part that is truly scarce. There is no aftermarket glass rear window in the results for these cars (only acrylic, FRP and carbon replacements), so a cracked S15 rear window means a used one, and six sold in four months. A 180SX rear window usually comes attached to a complete hatch: one sold for ¥47,000 after 15 bids.

On 19 October 2026 the live listings told the same story: two used genuine windscreens on offer (an S15 at ¥16,500 and a 180SX ASAHI M314 at ¥22,000), both closed to private addresses.

Why do most glass listings not ship to you?

Here is the step that stops overseas buyers. Of the 15 used genuine glass sales above, 2 were pickup or hand-over only (引き取り限定 / 発送不可手渡しのみ). A further 7 said 個人宅配送不可: no delivery to a private home, collection from a freight depot (営業所止め) or delivery to a business only. One S14 seller added that freight cost is only known at pickup and questions will not be answered. The new aftermarket stores are no different: one ships to private names only via a Seino depot, another only to company addresses and not even to a depot. Not one of the 14 listing pages we opened had Yahoo!‘s overseas delivery switched on.

What should the photos show before you buy?

Japanese listings often show one wide shot of the glass. Ask for these, or have them shot for you.

How do you get the glass out of Japan, and what does it cost?

By post, mostly not. Japan Post’s EMS limits, checked 19 October 2026, are 1.5 m maximum length and 2.75 m length plus girth to the United States, 1.5 m and 3 m to the UK, Canada and New Zealand, and 1.05 m (with 2 m length plus girth to Germany) to Australia and Germany. Even a slim box 1.4 m by 0.8 m by 0.1 m measures 3.2 m in length plus girth, over the US limit, and a windscreen is wider than 1.05 m. Japan Post also says Fragile and This Side Up services are not available on overseas shipments. So a windscreen goes crated, by freight, which is the same route as the bumpers and hatches in the oversized JDM parts shipping guide.

The DIY route only works for listings that will ship to a business, which rules out the pickup-only ones that are often the cheapest. Before bidding, ask your proxy whether it will receive a freight-delivered windscreen and forward it. The pickup-only parts guide covers what to do when the answer is no, and reading Yahoo! Auctions listings decodes the rest of the shipping vocabulary. For the body panels around the glass, see used Silvia doors and body panels from Japan.

Glass you can drive on is worth having when the car is back on track. When you are planning that first day out, the Japan drift tracks directory lists the circuits and what each one allows.
