Rear window leaks are typical on the Z31. The cure is to replace the seal. Some of the other guys here know how that is done, I haven't had to redo mine yet.

I read in the FSM there's a kit from Nissan...has anyone tried it or is there aftermarket stuff where I can shoot in there and don't have to r/r the rear window

You might also want to check under the tool kit and make sure there is no rust. Also check the spare tire well if one window is leaking it is likely the other one is.

If you don't have experience you can pay someone to reseal them.

will check that next, thanks

I can do the work, but not sure about the nissan or aftermarkets kits available, if they work or you have to r and r the window and start with all new stuff

Nothing that will last for any length of time. Best to reseal it and get it over with for another 15 years or so. Like JamesZ said, pull the carpet and rear panels and check for rust.
