Here is the unit im talking about, this pic shows a carbon fibre look on the front but the one i saw in super cheap is plain black.

Has anybody used one of these?

If you have, i have a few questions.

1) does the cup holder have something underneath it to stop the can falling through?

2) is there enough room for it to be out and have drinks in it and not crunch your knuckles against it in 1st, 3rd and 5th in an R33?

3) is it easy to fit?

Any help would be appreciated.

Here is a link to the product page http://www.aerpro.com.au/list.php?pcode=FP...o=&cat_sno=

I used the aerpro universal pocket without the cup holders and they fit in my R34 perfectly. The one i used had 3 different surrounds for it and i had to chop the edges a little on the smallest one to fit in but apart from that was fine. might cut it real close to the shifter with the cup holders though.

hey mate,

bought one of these for my r33 ages ago, cost me $49 only to find out that the holes dont line up properly :rolleyes:

it would require redrilling holes into the metal bracket which i couldnt be bothered with at the time ay...

1) yer as you pull it out a small frame folds down to hold the drink.

2) when you have drinks in it i think it will just be in the way - i had a short shifter n with a maccas drink it would just hit.

3) mine just sat in there when i had it - you can make it fit so that the thin frame that pops on the front of the din unit sits over the plastic frame surrounding all the aircon unit and cd deck etc. however then its not bolted down. mine jammed in though so it doesnt really move.

also the small draw above the drink holder is not much good lol u cant get your fingers in there to get coins etc out and cd's just dont fit haha

cheers Jon

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
