I still don't get how HICAS has an effect on engine mounts... They dont make allowance for anything far as i know?

Ive used RB25, RB26 mounts on my HR31 and have no issues... how are Nismo's any different... Especially in R33's which dont require a feed from the front of the car like 32/31 do

I made the same assumption Ash :) I dont see how they are relevant to each other but for some reason Nissan seems to think they are.

I asked around and was told there was no diffrence but once they arrived there was a visible diffrence between the two.

As in the mounts were different between stock and Nismo?

Thats probably right - as there is a difference between 25 and 26 from what i found :/

Thats very odd even so.... maybe post in FI about it?

Yeah my stock mounts are round, they have two threads for the chassis and on thread for the mounting bracket for the block, the Nismo ones I ordered are square, they have one thread for the chassis and on thread for the mounting bracket for the block.

More of a PIA than anything :wave:

I too made the same mistake.

26 are square, 25 are round.

Except my engine mounts were $500 :P

Did you manage to sell your Dave??

Are they interchangable with any other models??

    • 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.
