I noticed the front windows do not completely seal against the rubber. Is this a common occurrence with the 240sx? How do you or can you re-adjust the window so it seals better – i.e. is the window adjustable?

I also got water coming down from the front center roof molding (near the rear view mirror). Haven’t had a chance to look where the leak is since its still raining.

i don't think the window is adjustable. check your door panels. if they've ever been removed and not reinstalled correctly, the rubber/plastic stripping at the top of the panel will push the the window out. the biggest area to check is near the seatbelt tower.
